Well, then, we need to write the developers, and ask why it's not.  Your 
handset is new enough, I'd have thought it would have been compatible.

  Google play said that it wasn’t compatible with my device

    Hi,

    Did you get an error, or did it just not show up?

      Hi Claire,

      Try a new app called GuideDroid from Ideal Group.  You will be pleasantly 
surprised.  It's a great little GPS app and it's free.

      You can also add favourites and get it to take you to any of your 
existing contacts as well.

      All the best

      Steve

      Hi All,
      I tried out the GPS capabilities on my Android phone using Walky Talky to 
go to a well-know computer store. I wasn't sure how to hold my smartphone as I 
thought that usiing earbuds wasn't safe. Secondly, I was surprsised that the 
application did not announce much information about from the odd directions on 
when to turn, I mostly had to rely on my limited vision to see the big arrow on 
the screen. I was expecting more detailed information about what buildings were 
around me also. Was I expecting too much ?
      Any advice from more experienced users would be welcome.
      Thanks
      Claire
