Scout – the app that connects people together for live events, not just to find places! Meet up without the hassle of using multiple apps to coordinate, communicate, and navigate. It's the only app that lets you chat, make plans, and Meet Up with turn-by-turn GPS directions and everyone's real-time ETA on the navigation map. Now you'll always know if “five minutes away" really means “I haven't left yet!"
Scout is also one of the few navigation applications that is powered by OpenStreetMap (OSM). With a community of more than 1.6 million editors making regular updates to OSM, Scout's maps are some of the most up-to-date on the market. The incredibly accuracy of these maps allow Scout to show you the cheapest parking closest to your destinations and also identify gas stations, restaurants, and other points of interest along your direct route. Additionally, the accuracy of these maps enables it to track real-time traffic and route users around accidents and jams.
