1. [R14] 5/5 · US Lifetime Membership Fixed: I posted recently about how I couldn’t download updated maps even with a lifetime membership but that has been corrected. All in all this is one of the best “Offline Map” navigation that exists. Thank you for your prompt response and resolution.
2. [R46] 5/5 · US This is what you use for those times you have no signal!: I have been there. Leaving a spot in the mountains that I had followed a family member to, I had no signal and no idea which way to go to get back to the interstate or at least a recognizable spot. I just had to drive in the direction I thought was toward the main highway until I got signal. I determined that would never happen again, and
3. [R51] 5/5 · US Happy long-time user: I’ve been using Sygic GPS Navigation for a long time and they’ve added a lot of useful features. What keeps me using it, though, is the offline maps and being able to navigate with no signal or with a poor signal. The other major navigation apps either require you to be online, or their offline capability doesn’t work reliably when the signal is weak.
4. [R108] 5/5 · US Sygic gps navigation: It’s an awesome offline gps map
5. [R5] 4/5 · US Works well: Been using this GPS for several weeks now, & it’s rapidly becoming my favorite. Works well, pretty prompt directions and seems accurate. Wish it would connect better with our calendar, but still highly recommended.
6. [R54] 5/5 · US Excellent Graphics’s: I hardly ever type in an address but I’m a premium member just because I wanted to get rid of the annoying banner. I use this app for one thing, to look at the screen and see where the next main road is at, which the other major navigation apps don’t do unless you type in something
7. [R77] 5/5 · US Fantastic: I've had the paid app for a few months and live it. The customer service is outstanding. They always answer quickly. Yes the computer voices are robotic but Marias voice is the best of them. I like the live cam features and hud display especially at night
8. [R104] 5/5 · US Rain: I enjoy driving with sygic , it shows the speed limit in every road and which helps avoiding any police tickets 👌🏼
9. [R89] 5/5 · US Best App GPS: Works awesome with route flexibility and personalization controls.
10. [R75] 3/5 · US talks a little too much and little inaccurate: Used on a trip. The gps talks a little too much saying about staying on the same road. Some of the directions were wrong upon entering a gas station or restaurant etc. It kept telling me to turn or drive when the destination was a tight turn and there. I like some of the route options etc. Just needs to be better and probably have Lifetime purcha
11. [R8] 5/5 · US Updated review: After leaving a harsh, but sincere review compaining about the obnoxious in-app purchase upselling when I’ve already purchased multiple subscriptions and the app, it appears this has been addressed. This is very much appreciated to see developers who care about the feedback and want to make their product better for their customers. Thank you Sygic!
12. [R3] 1/5 · US Very dissatisfied: I have tried this app twice. It fails to list POI in my area and limits gas stations to two brands. I emailed for help and received a response from AI instead of a person in two occasions. Both times I was told to send them the info so they could add it to the app. Sorry. I don't get paid to do their job and correct their app. I cancelled my Sygic Premium subscription. It coul
13. [R4] 1/5 · US Fix your darn app and update your maps: I paid for premium and it’s absolute junk. Can’t figure out proper lanes. Takes me on odd longer routes even though fastest is selected. Thinks that main roads are unpaved randomly. Fire whoever the heck is in charge of your software and maps and hire somebody who can actually make this a nav app of value. Do not waste your money on premium with this app. Ha
14. [R19] 1/5 · US Maps are wrong, battery hog, messed up Bluetooth: Roads that haven’t changed in 30 years are wrong and have wrong speed limits. Not accurate in the USA. Also even if they were correct it’s a battery hog. Even with a fast charger I lose battery power. All other apps when plugged in I stay at 80% charge no problem. Can’t save preferred routes with waypoints. I select Bluetooth, which plays for a
15. [R20] 1/5 · US Terrible app: Consistently has wrong speed limit, does not give exit number. US Maps outdated. Even my home address shows wrong town… correct streets but wrong town. Also forget about trying to upgrade to their RV app, it wouldn’t show any maps and every time I tried to give it a destination it said maps needed updating, id go thru the process of updating them and it would do the same thing ag
16. [R25] 1/5 · US Worse than worthless: Any route not no a major highway displays 30 mph and alarms if exceeded. Rather than reroute if you deviate it wants you retrace you steps resulting in wasted gas and time. It makes errors that take you miles out of your way. I’m not sure why it does that it makes no sense. I’m really sorry I wasted my money.
17. [R27] 3/5 · US Good but not perfect.: It's good but it has its own annoying flaws which make it a poor choice for daily driver navigation on carplay. 1. Poor carplay integration. Navigation volume is tied to BT volume, can't hear navigation unless you listen to radio. Tomtom and apple maps got this part right. 2. It is annoying while driving. Is the camera still there? Ridiculous. Route changes every 5 minutes.
18. [R34] 2/5 · US Inconsistent directions when it counts: I recently started using the app again and received inconsistent directions such as “go on through” and then “turn left” with left than 50ft before the intersection. I can’t waste time turning around especially in busy CA traffic. App doesn’t call out street names either. Maybe I’m being generous with a 2 star rating…
19. [R1] 1/5 · US Subscription: Doesn’t let you unsubscribe. Account management is very confusing
20. [R7] 1/5 · US Account lied about FREE 7-Day Trial: Beware this app says that you could try it for free for seven days but there’s no where to cancel the subscription prior to the 7 day trial ending.
21. [R11] 2/5 · US FIX THIS!! $$$: I believe in this app I remember downloading it several years ago and really enjoying it and I just recently came back to it. I did upgrade and pay for extra features, however, no matter how many times I edit or delete my previous home or work location every time I reopen the app it says if I never did anything. Sometimes I just try to edit it instead of “deleting” it but regardl
22. [R15] 1/5 · US DELETED: I deleted this app because you now have to pay for traffic data an voice guided directions. Where as apps like Google Maps, Apple Maps, Waze, Tomtom maps & traffic, Mapquest, or here we go maps are maps/navigation apps that do not charge you to use any of their in app features such as traffic and voice guided navigation. Traffic data and voice guided navigation use to be free on this ap
23. [R23] 4/5 · US Great GPS: Nice app but GPS eats up resources on your phone. Other than that great app.
24. [R31] 3/5 · US Battery hog: Something changed recently where now the app drains the phone battery real fast when using car play.
25. [R150] 3/5 · US it’s ok: the app itself is ok. i dont find it any better than apple maps. my complaint is its a huge battery hog. when running this app and my phone plugged in. this is the only app that drains the battery faster than the car charger can charge. iphone 13 pro max with latest updates.
26. [R55] 3/5 · US Needs work: With Google, Waze and Apple Maps a successful product needs to at least meet or beat the features of the top 3. The notifications are a struggle to enable and disable. The voice is absolutely horrible. Finally to really be a viable contender it needs to support CarPlay 100 % so that Siri can give directions. As it stands you give Siri directions when Sygic is up it defaults to apple ma
27. [R171] 3/5 · US Junctionview missing in CarPlay: Junctionview is missing in CarPlay.
28. [R176] 3/5 · US Minor bug issues: It’s a great app. At first it was extremely reliable on CarPlay until some of the features such as the blue navigation that tells you what lane to get in stopped working. Sometimes it will crash. I paid for the yearly subscription but unfortunately I had uninstall the app so for the moment my yearly subscription will just go to waste. Maybe when they update the American maps in C
29. [R9] 1/5 · US It doesn’t work: I am under good wifi and cellular data! It doesn’t install the map and I have plenty of space
30. [R10] 1/5 · US Constantly forgets my downloaded maps: Every time I go to the app, it says I have Washington state downloaded. Yet every time I try to use the map in the wilderness, it says I’ve never downloaded any maps. Completely unreliable.
31. [R17] 1/5 · US Offline Maps: I’m in Europe. Downloaded all applicable maps. In Greece and Turkey the maps did not open. In Italy, map partially loaded and was no use. Once online all maps loaded.
32. [R18] 1/5 · US Doesnt start without internet: It will only start if there is internet. Useless without it. Wont start
33. [R42] 3/5 · US Need Enhanced: I’m deleting favorites all the time and always appear back. The most pain is home address, because don’t let me delete old one
34. [R58] 3/5 · US Better, but still lacking: At least it finally tells you the name of the street onto which you are turning before you have to turn. Doesn’t show stop signs or stop lights, but shows other roadside signs, weird. Still can’t find a lot of poi’s and often wants me to circle the block while mid-route. That is the strangest action. I’ve had this app since it was first released. It has SLOWLY improved.
35. [R70] 5/5 · US Feedback: You should add the traffic lights and the stop signs that would make it even more better
36. [R117] 3/5 · US No cross street: Overall, it’s a great app. You can use it off-line so if you don’t have Internet data, you can still use the navigation. It’s great. The only downside that I have is that you cannot search for an address based on cross street.
37. [R118] 3/5 · US Doesn’t offer some good features: This app is good to an extent, I felt like it misleads the user when navigating some stores or places. Doesn’t have traffic light support which is a big thing as Apple Maps & Google maps offer this for free. Road closures and related information is not updated and that has caused me to take many detours and sometimes I had to completely close the app and switch
38. [R36] 1/5 · US Can’t handle large routes: Horrible. Not sure how this got good reviews. Anything over 40 miles and crashes loading route. Disappointed because wanted to use for CarPlay on my bike.
39. [R83] 4/5 · US Money money money: Now premium (called now Basic) do not allow you to connect APP to your car play because now a Plus After premium is necessary with a monthly of yearly payment. Whao! Whao! Thank you guys but not.
40. [R48] 1/5 · US E pago: Ele anunciado como gratuito mas só vem três dias grátis o restante tem que ser pago
41. [R49] 1/5 · US Desepcionado: Cuando compre la app era la premium ahora resulta que tengo qué comprar nuevamente la app para tenerlo de nuevo premium porque a mi paquete ya se lo quitaron casi todo y ahora tengo que pagarla nuevamente para volver a ser premium
