Google Maps Navigate Explore for Android isn[SQ]t a separately named feature. There[SQ]s no official Google Maps feature with that exact title. It[SQ]s likely a misunderstanding or a colloquialism.

However, Google Maps on Android *does* offer features that combine navigation and exploration :

*

Navigation:

The core function of getting directions from point A to point B. This includes various options like driving, walking, public transit, and cycling.

*

Explore:

This is a more general term referring to the ability to search for places (restaurants, shops, attractions, etc.), see their ratings and reviews, browse nearby options, and view street view imagery. You can use this exploration to *inform* your navigation.

Essentially, users might refer to the combined use of navigation and exploration in Google Maps as "Navigate Explore," even though it[SQ]s not an officially named feature. You use the navigation tools to *get* somewhere, and you use the explore tools to *find* somewhere to go.
