"Before Maps Booster I needed to take my N97 outside and give it a minute or so to get a satellite fix. Check out Maps Booster to make all your location-based apps faster and more accurate... And, as my new Ovi Maps navigation voice would say: It's totally awesome, dude."
Kevin Sharp – Nokia Employee, Nokia Daily App Feature

"THANK YOU for fixing my N97 for a mere $3! I've purchased the app and it is terrific! My N97 has all sorts of issues with the built-in GPS and Maps Booster has alleviated all... THANK YOU for a GREAT APP!"

"I have downloaded the application and am very impressed with it. It seems to work extremely well with the Nokia N97 and have I mentioned this in the review I wrote on the Nokia Ovi store."

"Works well on my Nokia 5800XM (RM-248/v21.0.25) around Los Angeles using Ovi Maps 3.03 (beta) or Google Maps... I can get location in seconds rather than many minutes with integrated GPS alone. Well worth $2.99."

"Having tried the application at home in my living room on the ground floor of our 3 story town house, where there is no GPS coverage. I was located correctly within seconds. This is very impressive."

"Works flawlessly on my N97 and allows me to use GPS based apps indoors as it still gets a good fix. "

"I installed this application and then opened Ovi maps... and within a second the map fixed my exact position down to the correct house number....on my nokia n97 whilst indoors! Before I would be lucky to get a fix at all indoors. Wonderful!"

"If you use GPS... it will take up to 5 min to get a lock from a cold start. If you have a data plan set it up to use data, and consider buying the Map Booster app on OVI, that will give you Wi-Fi triangulation indoors as well. "

"Skyhook's Maps Booster seems to work very well. One of the most useful apps I've bought for my #N97 in a little while."

"I really recommend installing Maps Booster. It's a software similar to the iPhone's "fake" GPS, which uses wifi hotspots with a database of ID/location mappings, which even works inside rooms, and adds to the overall quality."

"My N95 sometimes takes forever to find satellites and display position data. This app is magic, I now have a decent portable GPS and for only $3.00. The question is "why did it take so long to fix this problem and why didn't Nokia do it for free ?"

"If you download Maps Booster for $3, the GPS finds a signal instantly by locating wifi hotspots in the area. Its now great for finding your way around when walking and it no longer costs anything for this service. A very enjoyable phone. Highly recommended."

"As icing on the cake, Maps Booster just works. When combined with an application like ARound (a great little 'augmented reality' technology demo for Symbian), it even helps give the Symbian platform some 'wow' features for showing off to your friends."
Andy Harsent – Gali.co.uk

"To second Steve's recommendation of Maps Booster. I've got it on my N97 and it works flawlessly. Best $3 I've spent at the Ovi Store."

"I've also been using Maps Booster from Ovi store which I find gives me a lock much faster. Ive noticed [a difference with lock times] both [outdoors and indoors]."

"The application works fine in Budapest! Maps Booster is a very useful application, I hate to wait 3-4 minutes for the proper GPS signal on my Nokia N97 and I'm sure all the other people feel the same."

"[Installed] Maps Booster and everything's working like a charm. I really love this application, Wikitude and new free maps!!! Just happy. Thanks a lot Skyhook Wireless."

"Before this getting a GPS position on my N97 was next to impossible... After loading up Ovi Maps got a lock on my position in about 5 seconds. Works fairly well indoors. Outdoors it seems to help find satellites much faster. Best $2.99 I've spent, it's as if I just bought myself a new GPS. Nothing bad to report."
Gerardo Salazat – Maps Booster User

"Fortunately there's a revolutionary app called Maps Booster that helps your Symbian phone find your location really fast no matter what other applications need it. That's right… I said revolutionary... I'm really happy with Maps Booster and it works perfectly on the Symbian phones I've tested: Nokia N86 and Nokia n97 mini. I hope it gets built-in with all upcoming devices... It's well worth it!"

"Maps Booster by Skyhook Wireless is yet another gift for the Nokia users. Anyone, by using this application, could find his exact location, notwithstanding the location in the world. Boosting your Symbian phone, this application is one of the masterpieces, especially when it comes to searching in the lesser possible time."
