  6. Click the ‘Save’ button to confirm the changes and enable Turn for this specific user

Once Turn has been enabled for a user, when they press the ‘Route’ button on the Stream mobile app to route to a particular collection/delivery location, it will open the Turn GPS navigation app, instead of Google Maps.

Please ensure the relevant drivers have installed the Turn GPS mobile app.

Please Note

Stream will prevent you from enabling Turn GPS for individual users if you have reached the limit of your assigned licences. To add more licenses you can contact Stream.
