User Reviews for Sygic GPS Navigation & Maps

Useless now

This was a great app when I purchased it a year ago but greed has corrupted it since. Ever since they started the map subscription towards the middle to end of last year the software is full of bugs. It will no longer give you the fastest route and will give you a route that is 1-3 hours longer. Will not reroute it’s directions. Crashes at least twice each 2 1/2 hour trip. Maps are still incomplete such as 3D building feature. Incorrect info on maps such as street names. And the dash cam plugin is the most frustrating bugfest. The dash cam will only record for a certain amount of time and when you go to start a new recording it will over write your last recording. Customer service will not actually read any bug reports you send them and reply with a canned email that doesn’t actually address the bug reported and try to up sell more of their plug ins. The core software has bugs that are overlooked while they focus on adding more pay-to-use features that have their own bugs. It’s just a cash grab now with little tech support and broken features.

Very unstable with Car Play

Installed ver. 22.3.1 to use with Car Play on the brand new VW Golf car in Italy. Connected with USB and Bluetooth with my iPhone. The app is crashing very often, especially close to the end of the trip. Had a hard time enabling voice instructions. Made voices work after reinstalling, the app stops speaking after every crash. Switching to phone speaker does not help. Occasionally drops the destination and once replaced it with another. Speed limits are shown incorrectly, for example, shows 90km/h on the road between Como and Bellagio, where there is no way you can drive that fast. Although I switched display to 2D, the Car Play still shows maps in 3D, even after restarting. Those are two many bugs. It’s a shame because the maps look nice and list of nearby gas stations is a helpful feature. I use Sygic Travel for many years for trip planning and wanted to take advantage of integrated navigation app and down loaded maps. However, due to the issues, I will more likely cancel my premium subscription before the trial period ends and switch to the old and faithful Waze instead.

I like it but why so limited free features?

So, I only used this app just because I wanted to try something new but unfortunately it didn’t last long for me because basic features where locked behind a pay wall like voice navigation why? Plus the change you car icon on the map is also behind a pay wall again why? So basically if you don’t pay for premium your features will be limited and free users don’t get a lot the app is basically almost useless if you don’t pay I don’t like this I fell like most features should be free like voice navigation and changing you icon on the map and anything else so afterwards I just deleted the app I don’t think I will come back after I see if more features are free but the things I do like is how good the sky looks for day and night very HD but overall I really wouldn’t recommend this app you can get it if you want be I just don’t like how many features are behind a pay wall :(

Update to previous 1-star rating

New Review:I love the graphics and Lane prompts in this app. Development team is prompt about responding and they’ve fixed a lot of issues that made the app hard to use. Landmarks and locations now are searchable. Yesterday the app was nimble enough to find the best route through an Interstate closure with traffic slowed to a stop AND multiple road closures in downtown. Never encountered stopped traffic on the drive using Sygic. It takes a little getting used to but well worth it. First review:This app has very few landmarks loaded into its databases. You must Google a landmark then put the address into Sygic in order to navigate. Love the graphics but I’ve never found a single location in the app by name, including libraries and schools. Not worth the money. Company offered to enter each one I report but would not refund the purchase until they have more appropriate map and search capabilities.

New subscription version 20.9.4

Purchased the older none prescription version. With US maps it was $100 US. This version works much better! Easier to get addresses into the app and save them. I like the list of gas stations that comes up on my phone now. Phone is cradled right next to the map display in my ST. Maps and verbal instructions are good. I’m on a iPhone 11 with IOS 15. Apple Maps seems to have more business etc but there are loading problems out in the boonies with Apple Maps. Route won’t calculate if your needed maps are not loaded. So figure out which states you need and load them. I have a long trip from Illinois to southern Ca. Once all the maps I needed where loaded it calculated the route just fine. I’d like to have verbal hands free address capabilities. The builtin GPS in most cars has that but it can be frustrating to use. Further comments to came.

Must read!

I wanted in-depth information about my ex-partner who I did not trust so I purchased this Sygic app and believe me, i wasn’t surprised at its capabilities, it’s like I envisaged that it would not get me the utmost satisfaction I desired. It was a day to my ex partner’s birthday, I was on Facebook and saw that the woman I loved receive a text from a man saying, I can’t wait to see you tomorrow Liz.' I immediately called her phone and all she could say was, “I am sorry, I had previous plans with him, but realized that I loved you, and I could not just break plans with him.” Dear reader, what does this even mean? I tried talking to her about it but it didn’t seem like she wanted to let me in on what was going on. Surfing through the net, I stumbled across a top rated review about a private investigator at SpyTechGuru @ gmail. All Dustin needed was her full name and cell phone number to extract the information I needed from my ex partner’s phone. I saw everything. From her phone conversations to her exact gps location down to her texts on messenger, iMessage and Snapchat. I was broken beyond repair. But I have no regrets at the moment. I would have ended up with a cheat but I dodged a bullet. Since I got court admissible information provided by Dustin, I went ahead to file for a divorce. Anyway, if you can relate to my experience and you need a drastic solution, hurry and write to Dustin. I assure you that his services are a-one!

Not quite ready

The lack of route editing makes it somewhat useless for car rallies and similar events. The latest update causes the screen to freeze when using it in vehicle dash. Fix it and stop changing things! I paid for Sygic Car Nav when it was out. When Sygic GPS Nav came out I bought the individual components and in Aug. I will have to pay a yearly subscription. Don’t think I will. Maybe, when it settles down and stops changing fee structure and the way it works, I might check it out. Earlier problems - I use this in BRP Connect which is a smartphone integration to a motorcycle dash. The most current problem is after a short while Sygic goes silent. The only way to get the sound directions back is to stop and restart everything. So many hiccups in using another navigation app. Map colors are limited. Announcements are quirky. When using it in a vehicle dash the route you set up on the phone disappears when you open it in the dash. Time consuming have to set up again.

Still frustrating!

Update:the search function has greatly improved, but now the directions leave much to be desired. I have noticed that the map shows all lanes of a highway are fine, only to find that it tells me it is time to turn less than 1000 feet from the exit, sometimes it finally tells me I am turning right when the exit only lane appears. Also, on my last trip it kept telling me to get into the carpool lane so it showed me turning, every mile or two; this made it impossible to know when my real turn would be. It would be nice to get more specific info about future turns too. Finally, why is the info bar at top sometimes blue and sometimes green? I am sure there is a reason but haven’t figured it out yet. At this point I only use Sygic when I am in areas with no cell signal, otherwise I use Apple maps. I used to love Sygic and keep hoping they will finally work out all the bugs.If I can get the program to understand where I am going, it is top notch, but actually getting it to recognize an address or find a location is frustrating at best and an utter failure at worse. At one point you could share an address from Apple maps and that was great but then it was removed, by Apple or Sygic I have no idea, but pretty much an epic failure now most of the time. As I do like the maps, once I have gone someplace I mark the location so I can find it again.

I purchased this app about 5 years ago, and purchased the premium package and other options. There was a learning curve to mastering this app, and it did credible job. But there are important fundamental functions that are now extinct, rendering the app useless for navigation beyond giving verbal instruction. And now the biggest issue is the frustration I have with their customer service that has ignored repeated requests regarding legitimate performance failures that were once promised with the Premium +Traffic North America-Lifetime License, Head up display lifetime license, Real View Navigation-Lifetime License, etc. etc. This app no longer has a landscape mode for either Head-Up Display or Real View Navigation. They only way they blue line/arrow within “Real View Navigation” had any value was in landscape mode. I finally grew tired of being ignored every time I addressed this consistent issue through their “give us feedback” venue. I also have the Sygic Travel app, and both have become a waste of money. Since I happened upon the complaints here, I decided to add mine to the heap. I want to see if this addition placed in this forum will stir this recalcitrant Sygic team into enough initiative to respond to me on this forum. I want the “bug fixed” with an update and apology afters years of complaining.

Is it Sygic or Apple 14 pro max?

I give up on gps. I don’t know if apple screwed this phone up, or if every navigation app is just trash. This is the fourth one I have used and all of them are unreliable, buggy and let’s be honest dangerous because we all get distracted and confused when the gps freezes, starts flipping around, changing your turn at the very last second before changing it again as soon as you commit to the turn. Also, it would be very helpful if you could click on roads and change your route that way when you set it. Instead you have to put in a ton of waypoints so the gps doesn’t constantly try to change your route. For instance I have family in Dallas Ft Worth who know the local secrets to avoiding traffic and construction. It’s impossible to take this route with the gps on because unless you put in numerous waypoints it’s constantly trying to fight you and redirect you into a traffic nightmare. Maybe one day gps companies will realize that having someone draw their finger down a route they want to take in order to change on the fly is a no brainer. Obviously also spit out the generic traffic filled route if someone doesn’t know or have a preference. Quality of life for customers is something very few companies seem to care about though. Navigation is only as good as the reliability. I could care less about HUD, or any of that other mess as long as the gps works 100%. When a gps works like crap then even if it’s pretty it’s still crap.
