Does Gaode Navigation charge?

20 13 On August 29th, Gaode announced that its "Gaode Navigation" mobile phone application was free, and it also staged a "free war" with Internet giant Baidu.

In the field of map navigation, not only the profit model is clear and stable, but also the backward charging model is very stable. But free of charge is a great pressure for map manufacturers, especially listed companies, because the decline in revenue will directly affect the stock price, which in turn will directly affect investors.

Although the income of Gaode Map is not directly collected from people who use navigation, these people are indeed the basis of the company's income. Only when more people use it, other businesses are willing to access it. These are the profit sources of map software.
