Have you ever slept through your station on your way home? With MapNap you dont have to worry about that anymore! Just tap to activate your destination, then relax and have a nap. Using accurate GPS location tracking, MapNap will wake you up as you approach your station, and will even tell you the station name. MapNap makes commuting less stressful not only for sleepy, but also for reading, chatting, playing or otherwise preoccupied commuters, especially when it is dark outside and the signs cannot be clearly seen. MapNap uses GPS in turn-by-turn navigation mode to precisely watch your current location and notify you when the geofence around the tracked destination has been crossed.
