The Thuraya X5-Touch has advanced navigation functions that are typical on most Android based smartphones. The preloaded Navigation app allows you to create and manage waypoints. These can be used to navigate from a fixed location to various waypoints, showing the distance and direction to each.

In addition you can send your coordinates by SMS to another person to inform them about your location. Also, you can view the sensitivity of the GPS, BeiDou and Glonass navigation systems that your X5-Touch is using.
