Here WeGo (formerly Here Maps) is a maps and navigation application for Android and iOS, and a desktop web mapping service by HERE Global B.V.. Originally developed by Nokia, the application was first released for Windows Phone and the web in 2014, and later for Android and iOS. Maps are updated every two or three months. Here Maps was released to the Google Play Store on 10 December 2014 and later on the iOS App Store on 11 March 2015.

On 29 August 2014 Here was also launched for the Samsung Gear S, which utilises the HERE for Gear app specifically made available for Samsung devices.

As of June 2015 the Here app was available as a free app in 118 countries and territories across the world for the Android and iOS platforms.

On 3 September 2015 Here announced that its app would be available for the Samsung Gear S2 when the smartwatch is released later this fall.

In December 2015 Here, at the time a division of Nokia, was sold to a consortium of German automotive companies (comprising Audi AG, BMW AG and Daimler AG) as HERE Global BV.

On 15 March 2016 Here announced that it would discontinue support for its app for Windows 10 Mobile on 29 March 2016 due to its use of "a workaround that will no longer be effective after June 30, 2016", and that the existing Windows Phone 8 app will only receive critical updates after this date and no longer be actively developed. Here maps licensed by Microsoft are still offered as part of the existing Bing Maps-based software on these devices.

On 27 July 2016 the app was updated and re-branded Here WeGo; the update first launched on Android, and is to be followed by an iOS version and a relaunch of the web version. The update and rebranding focuses on navigation capabilities, including the addition of taxi fare information in some cities, and integration with Daimler's Car2Go service.
