Some apps are just the undisputed best at what they do. Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat, Vine — these are apps that have hardly any fear of competition. I’d even be comfortable putting Google Maps in that esteemed category, if it wasn’t for Nokia’s Here Maps.

Today, Nokia officially announced Here Beta for Android with promises of an iOS version for Q2 2015. The long-time and beloved GPS map choice for Windows Phone, Here Maps became untethered from the platform during Microsoft’s acquisition last year. The Maps Beta first premiered on Samsung devices earlier this year, then sideloading became an option, and now you can just straight download from Google Play.
