🎭
Four themed worlds
Spaceship, Pirate, Military and Fantasy, each with its own characters: a calm female computer, a gruff captain, a roguish captain, a drill sergeant, a lone commando, a wise wizard and a rugged ranger.
What’s inside
Five ways to make the drive less dull
Google Maps still does the navigating. Fun Drive does the talking.
🎲
Mixes it up
Turns come in several themed phrasings, picked at random, so your daily route doesn’t sound like a broken record. New lines are added with every update.
💬
Mid-journey chatter
On long, quiet stretches your character pipes up with an in-world remark. Never near a turn, and you choose how often.
🥚
Easter eggs
There are a few hidden surprises in there. We’re not saying what, or when. Keep your ears open.
🧒
Kids mode for long trips
Games, quizzes and stories that keep the back seat busy.

Shh… easter eggs
We hid a few surprises
What are they? When do they play? Our lips are sealed. You’ll have to hit the road to find out.
Private by design
Your drives are nobody’s business
Most navigation apps know where you go. Fun Drive doesn’t want to. Everything happens on your phone.
🚫
No ads. Ever.
No banners, no sponsored “turn right for coffee”. Just your character.
🕵️
No tracking
No analytics, no trackers, no location history. We don’t know where you drive.
📴
Works offline
Download your voices once and you’re set. No signal needed on the road, and your routes never leave your phone.
👤
No account
No sign-up, no password, no email needed to use the app.
How it works
Rides on top of Google Maps
Fun Drive picks up the directions Google Maps already shows in its notification and speaks them in character.
Pick your crew
Choose a theme, a character and how themed you want it: None, Often or Immersive.
Allow access
Grant notification access once so the app can read Google Maps’ turn-by-turn text.
Mute Maps
Turn off Google Maps’ own voice so you only hear your character.
Drive & enjoy
Start a route in Maps as usual. Your character takes it from there.
Early access
Join the free beta
We’re looking for Android drivers to try Fun Drive before it launches on Google Play. Testers get the app free through Google Play’s testing program, and your feedback decides what we build next.
What to expect from early access
- Android only for now. Android 8.0 or newer. iPhone may come later. Tick the box and we’ll let you know.
- Works with Google Maps. Maps plans the route and Fun Drive gives it a voice. Keep Maps on screen and follow the road signs.
- Street names use a standard voice. Characters record the common directions, distances and exits. Street names are read by your phone’s built-in voice or left out.
- Your feedback shapes it. Send us a problem report from the app in two taps, or just reply to our beta emails. Nothing is collected behind your back.
- Still growing. Spaceship is the most complete pack today. Pirate, Military and Fantasy are getting new lines right now.
