Yandex Navigator is an advanced navigation Chrome extension designed to help drivers find the optimal routes by considering live traffic conditions such as jams, accidents, and roadworks. It provides up to three route options, highlighting the fastest and warning users about any toll roads along their journey.

The extension features voice interaction capabilities, allowing users to give commands like "Hey, Yandex, take me to Domodedovo Airport" without taking their hands off the wheel, enhancing safety and convenience. Routes are visually displayed, with real-time updates on distance and estimated time remaining. Users can also report road incidents using voice commands, making traffic updates more accurate. Additionally, recent destinations and favorites are saved in the cloud for access across multiple devices. Yandex Navigator supports navigation primarily in Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, and Turkey, making it a valuable tool for drivers in these regions.

User reviews

Users praise Yandex Navigator for its clear graphics, accurate traffic info, offline map support, and minimalistic UI. However, common issues include frequent routing through toll or costly roads despite preferences, outdated map data in some areas, and problems with Android Auto integration. Navigation prompts sometimes appear late or obstruct critical screen areas. Additionally, the app lacks customization options like changeable route colors, impacting usability and safety.

Accurate traffic jam information and routing (especially in certain regions like Tajikistan and Russia)
Supports offline map storage
Minimalistic and optimized user interface
Provides actual speed camera and bump warnings

Cons

Navigation often directs to toll or expensive roads despite settings to avoid them
Outdated maps in some regions leading to incorrect or missing road data
Android Auto compatibility issues after recent updates
Navigation prompts can be late or block important parts of the screen causing confusion
Limited customization options such as inability to change route color, leading to poor route visibility

Good driving aid but it's a bit clumbersome until you get used to it. The graphics are good and clear but I find the interface to be awkward and I keep having to go back to the beginning every time I change something. Might be me not having the knack of it yet. Time will tell. But try it yourself and see what you think of it.

App does not function well. Mine also looks nothing as cool as the one being advertised here. Besides bugs Police radar app would not show the activity near me ( police cars etc). I live in Los Angeles, CA. The app does not work, at least for me. Unable to detect police vehicles, radar detectors etc. Get rid of Ads, Ads, Ads !
