HERE Maps, considered by many to be the only serious rival to Google Maps, will no longer be known as “Maps” after deciding to rebrand itself.

As of today, the app will now be known as HERE WeGo. The company said the rebranding reflects its greater emphasis on directions and route planning, with an emphasis on walking, car sharing, public transport and taxis, as opposed to Google’s more consumer-oriented model. It comes after the app was acquired just under a year ago from its original owner and creator Nokia Oyj by a consortium of German car makers, including Audi AG, BMW AG and Mercedes’ parent company Daimler AG.

Along with the new name, HERE WeGo also gets some nice new navigation options. As soon as you open up the app, it greets you with a “Where to?” question in the search bar at the top of the screen. Type in a destination, select your mode of transport, and it instantly finds the best route for you. HERE WeGo’s team said in a blog post this eliminates the extra click needed to “find a route” that was present in the older app, at the bottom of the screen.

HERE WeGo also offers a new Route Comparison tool, which allows users to compare different transportation options. As well as the regular car, cycling, public transport and walking routes, the app has now partnered with car sharing firm Car2Go as a new option. This lets you find out where the nearest available rental car is, and how much you can expect to pay to reach your destination if you go with that option. It also lets you reserve a car right there and then, if you decided to go ahead.

The revamped app also lets users call a taxi from within the app itself, after assessing how much the fare and wait time will be. Sadly this feature is only available in some U.S. cities, though HERE WeGo says it will be “adding taxi information for more cities and more car sharing services” in a few months’ time.

The last major improvement pertains to HERE WeGo’s bicycle route features. The app now includes elevation profiles, which allow users to work out how hard a slog it’s going to be to get to their destination.

Apart from that it’s much the same. The main UI has changed little from the original, and the “Nearby” panel is still there too – which means you can easilt find ATMs, bars, restaurants, shops and other things if needed. Last but not least, the new HERE WeGo retains what was probably the best feature of HERE Maps – you can still download the entire world’s maps for offline use, whereas Google Maps still only allows a portion of them to be downloaded.
