Anybody here use CoPilot on their android device?

I usually use the Google Navigation and find it pretty goods for what i want but wondered whether it was worth paying £29 and getting CoPilot? Does it do a better job/worth while value?

I've used it for a while now and find it a mixed bag. I originally bought it so I could used sat nav in Germany without incurring roaming charges for using Google navigation -and it did this well. I thought the download option for Google maps would remove this advantage, but, no! You can download the maps, but can't search them without a data connection.

I prefer the Google navigation interface, but Co pilot is far from bad. I quite like the colour schemes for the maps and navigate to a photo with gps tag option. For me the biggest advantage is that you can alter the route if you want by simply dragging it on the map.

On the downside their tech support is naff. When I upgraded my phone I lost the "active traffic" option I'd paid for. Months on I've still not got it back.

For navigation in the UK only (with a good data connection) I'd probably save the 30 notes....

Forgot to say, it also comes with a speed camera data base

I have been using CoPilot for over 2 years now on 3 android phones its a fantastic nav app I have been around them all that I have found and out of all the non data connection required ones I find it to be by far the best.

Waze is great. Uses data though.

I use Sygic on mine with traffic that uses data. not had any major issues with it all together cost about £25 all in.

I've used copilot on my last 3 phones - windows mobile and android. Can't fault it really, though the traffic information isn't brilliant, but it is a free add-on at the moment.

NavFree is actually pretty decent for a free offline SatNav. Well worth a try - personally find it brilliant for the UK with full postcode search.

Cheers for the replies. Im going to stick with Google maps/nav for now, I've been looking around on the net and it appears TomTom should be releasing an app for android in October. So I'll wait and see what their offering is like.

I'm also using Sygic.

Got it in a sale and was only about £24 for full european navigation.

Works very well and no problems.

I did try copilot ages ago on my Desire and found it a bit flakey tbh. They've probably improved it since though.

If TomTom are releasing it on Android then I would wait to see about that. Could be expensive though.

Free ones all seem fine, cant see why anyone would pay these days.

I've used Copilot & NavFree & TomTom for a good few years and both have things to like.

I'd start with NavFree as, for free, it is excellent and gets frequent updates.
