A new report says that Microsoft, along with Amazon, are in talks to supply cloud computing services for HERE, the online mapping company currently owned by BMW, Audi and Mercedes. The report also claims that Microsoft is "interested in closer ties to HERE" but details were not revealed.
HERE mapping has been part of the Windows Phone (now Windows 10) story for many years, but unfortunately this is a love story that has come to an end. The company has announced that all Windows development has been halted and apps will be pulled later this month.
The popular suite of HERE apps for Windows Phone have been updated. New releases have been rolled out for HERE Drive+, HERE Transit and HERE Maps. Since there are six versions available on the store, we'd imagine that each and every listing has received some love and attention.
If you saw our news last week about the suite of HERE apps returning to Windows 10 Mobile, you may have been miffed to see a 'not compatible' message in the Store on your Lumia 950 or XL. The reason is a little complicated, but the good news is we are here to explain and give you the right links to the apps you need.

HERE announced that the 6,500 strong team has officially bid farewell to Nokia to bring all its global mapping and location technology under a new umbrella backed by Audi, BMW and Daimler AG.
HERE has confirmed to Windows Central that an unnamed "technical issue" is currently not allowing its suite of mapping and navigation apps to appear in the Windows Store. It says it is "working to resolve the problem" but did not offer an estimated date when it will be fixed.
The HERE suite of apps for Windows Phone has been updated this evening, bringing minor bumps for HERE Maps, Drive+, Transit, and City Lens.

HERE states that all your data will be synced to the new account: "Create a HERE account and...

Before the change, apps had 'Nokia Corporation...

This is why we extend the benefits of free voice guided car...

We recently covered plans for the app to be pushed out to all hardware, ending the Lumia 2520 exclusivity.
