It can even confirm whether or not you are on the fastest route.

Garmin Real Directions™

Drive with confidence, even when you’re out of cell phone range. nüvi 2689LMT is dedicated automotive navigation that does not rely on cellular signals and is unaffected by cellular dead zones.

nüvi 2689LMT redefines “spoken turn-by-turn directions” with Garmin Real Directions, easy-to-understand driving directions that guide like a friend, using recognizable landmarks, buildings and traffic lights. No more stress from trying to read street names. Instead, hear clearly spoken guidance, like “Turn left after the gas station.”

Find Exactly Where You Need to Go

The Direct Access feature simplifies navigating to select complex destinations, like airports and shopping malls, by finding a place within a larger location. When navigating to the mall, Direct Access gives additional location information for specific retail stores inside. For example, "Arriving at Woodfield Mall. Anthropologie is inside, on the upper level." Direct Access even navigates through parking lots to find the entrance nearest your destination.

Easily Navigate Complex Interchanges

Active Lane Guidance with voice prompts prepares you to drive through an exit or interchange with confidence. As you approach, an animated model uses brightly colored arrows to indicate the proper lane needed for your route; a friendly voice offers additional help. Bird’s Eye junction view offers a detailed view of interchanges, looking down as if from overhead. photoReal Junction View realistically displays junctions and interchanges along your route, including the surrounding landscape. Brightly colored arrows indicate the proper lane to drive. nüvi 2689LMT also depicts real road signs as they appear along your route.

Bluetooth® Compatible

When paired, your nüvi can use your phone’s existing data plan³ to share information – such as where you parked, POIs and your destination. With the Smartphone Link app, you can conveniently send locations and addresses from your phone straight to your nüvi. Smartphone Link also gives you access to Garmin Live Services⁴, useful real-time information such as weather. Smartphone Link works with iPhone 4S or later and some Android devices.
