Late to an important meeting because you are stuck in traffic? Missed an important traffic update on the radio? Traffic is a recognized problem in America, with studies indicating that traffic congestion alone accounts for over 3.7 billion hours per year.1
We know how important it is for you to arrive on time. So when you select your destination, TeleNav Shotgun will automatically look for the route with the fewest traffic delays.
While driving, TeleNav Shotgun proactively checks for traffic updates along your route every five minutes.2 We don’t just show you a map with a lot of bright colors, we give you the details of the traffic incident as well as how fast the traffic is moving on that road so you can be informed.
If there’s trouble ahead, TeleNav Shotgun will let you know with a friendly voice and a visual prompt. With one tap, you can choose to change course, taking into account the latest traffic conditions in the area.
TeleNav Shotgun’s real-time traffic updates can save you time, improve your gas mileage and relieve stress on the road.

Getting reimbursed for mileage can be a headache. Between remembering each trip, logging miles traveled, and keeping it all organized, sometimes it’s easier to ignore that part of the expense report or tax form.
TeleNav Shotgun takes the pain out of mileage capture by automatically tracking your business trips while you drive.
At the beginning of a trip, simply tap “Start Capture” and TeleNav Shotgun will log the miles for you until you reach your destination. Details for each trip are uploaded to your My TeleNav Webpage. From there, you can view, print or export mileage information
You can even assign trips to specific clients, projects, or cities by entering their name on your TeleNav Shotgun before you leave. Each trip will be given the label you enter, making it even easier to keep track.
The result is more productivity, less frustrating paperwork, and higher reimbursement.

Look up more than 11 million points of interest, including ATMs, restaurants, hotels, Wi-Fi hotspots and more. You can even use our directory to find the cheapest gas, with regularly updated gas prices.

Did you know that in 2007 alone over 10,000 new restaurant establishments opened in the U.S.?3 Apply that principle to other new businesses and roadways and you’ll see that there are a lot of new places popping up. If you want to be informed, it’s important to be connected.
At TeleNav, our team of engineers is constantly exploring third-party data sources. We undergo high-scrutiny for each data source we incorporate, making sure that the breadth and accuracy of the data is of the highest possible grade. We also spend considerable time improving our database schemas, because we know that unless the information is organized and easily searchable, it would yield minimal end-user benefit.
We update our maps and business listings database on a quarterly basis and try our best to stay on top of all the new developments. Our continuous updates are automatic and are included with your Internet-connected service.
