Why limit yourself to your small screen on the phone? Run ViaMichelin GPS, Maps, Traffic, an app by Michelin, best experienced on your PC or Mac with BlueStacks, the world’s #1 Android emulator.

ViaMichelin GPS, Maps, Traffic is kind of like bringing an actual Michelin guidebook and a smart road trip buddy right onto the desktop. Through BlueStacks, the maps pop up big and clear, and everything just feels a bit more relaxed without having to squint at a phone screen. It’s not just standard GPS navigation, either—there’s a decent amount of trip planning packed in, especially for people who like knowing not only how to get somewhere but also what cool stuff they might find along the way. The app lets users pick whether they’re driving a regular car, something electric, biking, or even just walking, and then it helps calculate a route and even gives an estimate for how much the trip will cost (including options to change up the fuel price and so on, which is honestly handy).

Something a lot of people notice: there’s an extra focus on those classic Michelin picks—restaurants, hotels, tourist sights—so it’s easy to plan out stops and breaks that are actually worth it, rather than just whatever shows up first. The maps can be customized a bit, like flipping between a cleaner look, an old-school style, or switching to a 3D setup when navigating. For practical stuff like gas stations, EV chargers, parking, or even just spotting trouble traffic spots ahead, the app has solid info, and real-time traffic works well for avoiding jams or construction messes. Adding up to 15 stops to a trip feels really organized for longer journeys. Setting up an account lets the app figure out travel costs and routes even better, matching up to the user’s actual car and fuel. Every so often, there’s a new feature or service, so it’s not stuck in one version. For anyone mapping out longer road trips on PC, or who likes the idea of Michelin’s recommendations mixed into navigation, playing with this on BlueStacks actually makes planning and moving around feel a lot more connected.
