xGPS app adds turn-by-turn GPS voice directions to your iPhone

xGPS is an “unauthorized” –not available in AppStore and requiring you to jailbreak your iPhone– GPS navigation app that enables realtime GPS navigation.

Apart of providing GPS directions, xGPS also allows for wireless transfer of your map files, and features support for Google Terrain Maps. And here’s a Youtube video demo.

That’s what you can find in the current version of this app… However, the upcoming v1.2 of xGPS for iPhone will also add spoken English instructions for turn-by-turn directions. This new version will come out by the end of the month, as promised by its developers.

If you’ve already jailbreaked your iPhone and installed Cydia, you can download the xGPS app from the following repository: http://cydia.xwaves.net (just add it to your Cydia sources and “refresh” the program in order to see the download).
