That's exactly how I use it. I keep reminding my Mom to plug her phone in every time but she forgets and then moans about all of the temporary lights ?I too use Google maps on almost every journey, short or long, whether I know the route or not, just for the live traffic updates.
My son-in-law forgot to do that the other week on one of his regular journeys and ended up at standstill on the motorway for an hour with wife and 3 kids in the car. Could easily have diverted with maps on.
