Obtaining updated navigation information for road trips
First Claim
1. A method of obtaining updated navigation information, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a first computing device, routing information from a second computing device, the routing information indicative of a first route determined by the second computing device to a stationary destination, wherein the first computing device and the second computing device are to follow the first route to the destination;
providing navigation instructions at the first computing device based upon the routing information received from the second computing device;
receiving, by the first computing device, from the second computing device, a change to the routing information indicating an updated route to the destination;
responsive to receiving the change to the routing information, providing a notification indicating the first route and the updated route;
sending a request to the second computing device to provide the updated route; and
providing, by the first computing device, modified navigation instructions corresponding to the updated route responsive to receiving the updated route.

Abstract
Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for obtaining updated navigation information are presented. A first computing device can receive routing information from a second computing device, where the routing information is indicative of a route determined by the second computing device to a destination. Subsequently, navigation instructions can be provided at the first computing device based upon the routing information received from the second computing device. The first computing device then can receive, from the second computing device, a change to the routing information. Thereafter, and responsive to receiving the change to the routing information, the first computing device can provide modified navigation instructions.

16. A method of updating navigation information, the method comprising:
-
registering, by a first navigation device, to follow a shared route to a stationary destination, wherein a plurality of participants are to follow the shared route to the destination, the plurality of participants including a route leader; providing, by the first navigation device, one or more navigation instructions associated with the shared route; receiving, by the first navigation device, position information associated with one or more of the plurality of participants; determining, by the first navigation device, that the first navigation device has passed the route leader along the shared route based on the position information; and responsive to the determining, providing a notification including a prompt whether to update leader status information associated with the shared route to designate a participant associated with the first navigation device as the route leader. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
