Disappointed with the update gps app

I am very disappointed with the updated version of CoPilot because the photo navigation feature has not come back. The app and USA+Canada maps are much bigger 3.03GB (about 720 MB more than before) and the menus is more confuse rather than easier to use. It is difficult to upload snap photo for future map correction.

Terrible

Compared to the older version this version is absolutely terrible to try and learn....very difficult to plan.....will take probably hours to learn how to use efficiently....my wife hates it as well...no longer can she be a copilot in the right seat....thank the Lord I bought a new vehicle with in dash navigation....which used to be worst than copilot but now is a lot easier to use than this...wish I could go back to the old version....actually...thanks for Siri ...she does an excellent job of getting you there....hello Google Maps...

Previous version is better

Thank you anyway!

AWESOME APP!!

It helped my cross country trip across America in every aspect. Thank you!

Love this navigation app!!

Customer Support WORST. DOES NOT EXIST

Used this for years. Got new iPhone 7 and license did not transfer. Transfered on every other phone. Yes license is transferable too. So thats not an excuse. Had lifetime navigation. 3 emails No response. Had to buy new license. Dont buy. They lie and charge you twice. No excuse for no response to 3 emails. Support worthless. Bet they respond now.

Great app til recent update

Ive used this app since 2013 with few complaints. They recently updated it. Very difficult to use since then. Main problem now is that there doesnt seem to be a way to reroute suggested route in advance. Also the interface seems very clunky. Not user friendly like before.

Screwing up a good app -- misunderstanding the customers

I switched to Copilot a few years ago after Telenav totally screwed up Telenav GPS and Scout by messing with the interface and removing features important to business users. Now the developers of Copilot have made the same DUMB mistakes, so Im deleting Copilot and moving on. I could get used to the UI changes, but switching the online seach function from Google to . . . What? Yelp? . . . is bafflingly stupid. And not giving users a choice of which search engine they want to use? Really? (HINT: not everyone uses GPS to find restaurants and clubs to connect with friends after work.) The beauty of Copilot used to be this: when you couldnt find a destination in Copilots built-in database, you could type (or better: dictate) the name of the business (e.g., a lawyers office, or plumbing supply store) into the Google search box, click on the Google result, and Copilot would automatically capture the business address, plug it in and start plotting the route. No more, because (1) and somehow this may come as a surprise to the developers: Yelp is NOT AS POWERFUL as Google, and (2) to be honest, Yelp doesnt really care all that much about businesses that arent dining or entertainment venues (so good luck with that plumbing supply store). The two litmus tests I now use for GPS apps: (1) do the developers insist that you authorize them to track your whereabouts, by turning on location services, EVEN WHEN YOURE NOT USING THEIR APP? If so, I click on the little "x" and delete the app. Three words: NOT DOING THAT. (Im looking at you Waze, and others) Litmus test #2? I type the name of locally well-known business I visit regularly into the search box. Does the GPS accept business names or just addresses? (If it cant deal with business names, app gets deleted.) Then, does the app accurately find/identify the business? (If it offers only one suggestion 900 miles away . . . Yup, you guessed it: app gets deleted. And finally, can the app automatically capture the business address to plot the route? (If it makes me type in the address, app gets deleted.) We are way, way, way past the days when users were forced search for a destination in the Google app, remember the address, then switch to the GPS app and type, or cut & paste, the address into the GPS destination box. These apps are supposed to work for us, not the other way around. So, goodbye Copilot, hello Googles own GPS/mapping app. It passes all the litmus tests, and IT JUST WORKS.

What happened

I loved the app but I cant figure out how to use the latest version. please let me go back to using the one I loved. Youve improved it to death.

Excellent

Wow its fantastic easy to used. I love it

Completely Useless

I downloaded this app a couple years ago because I could use it without the internet, just GPS. I dont have service on the phone, I just use the phone itself. Now I went to use it for the first time in a year and now I cant use it because it requires that I login and why would I want to log in to view a map using GPS? I used it to ride the bus and see where to get off the bus but now Im blind and have no idea. I wish apps were not allowed to change the fundamental features of their app. Im so sick of downloading an app and then in a year or two its an entirely different app that you cant use so why buy apps when the app makers destroy what you bought. To me, that is fraud!

Good offline navigation

I am using on I iPhone6. When I cancel navigation the app crashes often. Still, I like it. There is a confusing message sometimes when it says "keep right", when it is in fact keep straight. At other times it gets you to exit, and then puts you back on the freeway(??!!@$). In some neighborhoods it puts you a block or two from your address. I commend the Help Crew for promptly responding to my issues! In brief, it works for me 95% of the time, still! Improve the above points for 4 stars.

Very good and nice

I hope for copilot team to reduce price of guidance and navigating

Where are the streets?

I was hopeful of this app but after downloading it and maps i was immediately disappointed to find that some streets that i have been driving on for over 10 years are NOT on the area map.

Spectacular!!!

Better maps traffic and interface. Big upgrade. Flawless thus far. Thank you

Co Pilot

Best mobile GPS software ever! Been using it for more than 8 years and never had an issue, I highly recommend it!!

Since recent upgrade!! List its usefulness

This use to be a good app!! But since the last upgrade,.. its the worst now. Lost many useful features like " turn now " voice prompt at the turn. They should have left the previous version alone.. it was good. Now its mediocre. Im using google maps now

worst makeover

Used to love this app but their most recent upgrade changed everything!!! But instead of being more user friendly, I simply cannot figure it out. I thought some features had become locked, so went ahead and bought the $10 upgrade (on sale for $7) but that didnt help. Can not figure out how to just view the map. Dragging the route is so much more complicated. Wish I could get the old version back!!!

Best gps on iOS

Everyone seems to be using ways these days but copilot is still the best in my opinion. You must buy the text to speech addin though.

CoPilot

Its the great navigation, with this navigation im not alone never
