CoPilot Southern Africa - Offline GPS Navigation at Mac App Store analyse

100% zuverlässige Navigation mit perfekter Darstellung. Die teilweise fotorealistische Darstellung von Abfahrten ist Spitze. Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen und hat unseren Urlaub in Südafrika ganz entspannt werden lassen. Auch die vollumfänglichen Sonderziele sind beeindruckend. Schnelle Berechnung der Route mit nicht optimierbarer optischer und Akustischer Zielführung. Ein Muss!!!

Die Bedienung ist schon ein Abenteuer.Normale Navi sind eigentlich selbst erklärend aber hier sieht man nicht durch.Sucht man eine Lodge über die Adresse findet er sie nicht.Dann kann man über POI suchen muss aber aufpassen das man die Umgebungskarte richtig eingibt.Wenn man Glück hat findet man was man sucht.Alles viel zu kompliziert. Viele Orte sind gar nicht drin.Sicher sind es nur Orte mit wenigen Häusern aber in den gedruckten Karten sind sie ja auch drin.Touristische Straßen wie der Welwetschia Drive ist gar nicht vorhanden.Dafür aber die Uranmine die nun gar nicht interessiert.Gibt man eine Adresse ein mit Hausnummer dann wird immer die Meldung ausgegeben das keine Hausnummern vorhanden sind.Es wird dann nach einer Querstraße gefragt.Ja bitte woher soll ich wissen an welcher Kreuzung mein Ziel liegt???Fazit:Rausgeschmissenes Geld!!!

Until Co-Pilot I used Google Maps on my iPhone for navigation, and I wasnt expected much more. Google Maps is slow to update your position, uses data to download the maps, doesnt talk, and the screen blacks out if you dont keep touching it. Co-Pilot is a proper turns your iPhone into a proper navigation device: - "Live" updating of your position - The maps are on your phone, so there is no data use - Voice prompts etc My only criticism is that the user interface is not immediately obvious out of the box. There are a number of icons and terminology that Im going to have to read up on before I fully understand the system.

After reading a couple of reviews on websites I decided to spend the money on this software. In a word, excellent. The maps are up to date, it is responsive, the routes it chooses (well at least the ones I have tried) all make sense an Points of Interest are very comprehensive. If you are thinking of getting a turn by turn based sare, it is definitely worth the money.

Some city and road names have changed in South Africa since 1984 and this app still cannot find the new names. (Mandela drive in Emalahleni (Witbank) is just one). Dont get me started on POIs, it could not find hotels or restaurants. (StayEasy and Brazenhead in Emalahleni, just to name some) The app does not support text to speech, who doesnt anymore? They do mention the ability to purchase the option, but not available yet? The app is also not very intuitive to use. Access to the iPod interface is buried three levels deep. Easier just to exit app and return as multitasking now works... I could live with some of the apps shortcomings, but the map data is not up to date and that is a major failure... Have since bought the TomTom app and it is a great improvement. Wish I can get my money back for this junk.

Very impressive on iPhone 4. It has great looking street nav, website integration, contact integration, speed limit display and lots more. I ran it head-to-head against my Garmin Nuvi 200W and it kicks Garmins butt: locates satellites quicker, gives more informative prompts, looks better. Four gripes: 1. Address input needs work. Looks like a clunky matric Delphi project, does not utilise Google Live and does not add any AI to the process. This was the only disappointing area and made me miss my Garmin. 2. I wonder though why you can select an address from a contact but cannot save an address to a contact. How odd. 3. Setup menu is a little disjointed, with non standard navigations, but not crazily so. 4. No traffic integration. Id definitely recommend this app.

Dont buy this app, hasnt been updated for 2 years now. Still got the old highways on the maps.
