Get started
Navitel Navigator is an offline multifunctional navigation application used for efficient route search and planning.
This document is the user manual that aims at helping the novice users of the program to learn how to use its
primary functions, as well as to familiarize themselves with all the special features of the program.
Please take notice that this manual also contains information on online services of the program. If there is no
Internet connection on your device, the appearance of the program and its function set can be slightly different
than that described in the document.
To ease the use of the manual we have organized this document in a way that you can read it from the top
downward to learn all the program tricks, as well as use it as a quick reference guide where you may always find a
fine and precise description of a function you are interested in, or follow a simple and friendly instruction on how
to perform a particular operation in the application.
We thank you for using our application and sincerely hope you enjoy it!
Best wishes,
NAVITEL Team

Route on direct line — connects 2 points on the map with a direct line.
Note that the Route on direct line option is used only for measuring
distance between two points. Do not use this option to plan a route for
navigation.

When planning routes in Navitel Navigator, you can set up the “avoid”
conditions. When such conditions are set, the program will try to avoid
the specified road types when planning routes.
If there is no way the program can plan a route with the selected
conditions, the program will ignore some of them.

Guidance prompt — specify the time estimated to an upcoming

maneuver when the program must inform you of it.

Rerouting — determine circumstances when the program should try

to automatically re-plan the created route. Navitel Navigator provides
2 possible conditions for route recalculation:

Here you can set the distance of deviation from the current route, at
which the program must start replanning the active route from the
current position.
• When found a route faster
And here you can set the time by which the potentially new route
must be faster than the current one in order for the program to start
replanning the route. The work of this function is heavily based on
information received when Navitel.Traffic service is updated.

multiple columns. Each column represents the signal quality from a specific satellite. Identification numbers of
satellites are indicated at the top of columns. The higher is the column, the better is the signal of the corresponding
