Hello !
I know that a lot of sailfish users want offline GPS navigation
But I have a side question. Can we install harmattan SDK in a chroot on sailfish ? (We can already do it on harmattan)
Then, maybe, we can install nokia drive inside, and get our OFFLINE GPS NAVIGATION BACK

What you think about folks ?

Harmattan apps use Qt4 which doesn't support Wayland. So they can't run on Sailfish.

XWayland should be supported by compositor (Wayland server). In Sailfish it is lipstick and it doesn't support XWayland.

Sygic works for me.

However, there is tentative roadmap for native offline maps/navigation app, as discussed in here. But it will be 2015 until it's ready to be released.

Did you mean slick or slick?

Sygic has one disadvantage: it is not free. Back in the days when I was using Android, I found a very good and free offline navigation solution called NavFree. It had its own downloader for offline maps per country. The maps were based on OpenStreetMap but neatly compacted, one file per country rather than the usual set of tiles. I do not know if it's still around and if it still works the same way or whether it would work on Jolla.

Does somebody tried Navit for Android? It works fine in Jolla? Or a port for Sailfish is needed?
