Getting to your destination safely is always the top priority, but today's navigation apps can do so much more than that. Whether 30 minutes or 3,000 miles away, these map apps not only notify you of traffic accidents and slowdowns but offer options for the nearest gas station or hotel.

The process for turning it on takes less than a minute, and in just a few quick taps to your device screen, you can avoid the stress and cost of tolls during your trip.
