Android Auto has an ecosystem of increasingly high-quality applications that allow us to cover all our needs when we get behind the wheel. Among the navigation applications, we find alternatives that go beyond Google Maps or Waze, two of the most used.
Android Auto has become a must-have for many of us, given the large number of functions it offers us. The ecosystem of apps that Android Auto integrates is one of the keys that helps us understand its growth, since we are finding an increasing variety of apps with which we can perform all kinds of tasks without neglecting the most important thing: focusing our attention on the road.
One of the most used app categories is navigation, as they allow us to use our multimedia screen to find out all the information that separates us from our point of origin to our destination. Moreover, as time has gone by, these apps have been improving and adding more functions until they have become more and more complete. Today we are talking about Sygic, an interesting alternative beyond Google Maps or Waze that is also very interesting.
Sygic, another alternative for your Android Auto
Sygic has very attractive features that allow us to consider the application as a very reliable alternative to the more classic ones. One of them is the possibility of planning our refueling: a function that allows us to be very clear about where we should stop to fill up our vehicle’s tank when we are going to take a route that requires it. In this way, we have the possibility of reducing unforeseen events on the road.
Another reason that has led me to try the application on more than one occasion is the real-time traffic update and the point-to-point voice guidance, which help us to have greater control of our journey and of where we should make each turn or take an exit. The aim is to make all the information as clear as possible so that we don’t have the classic doubts that arise on the road.
More features to consider
In addition to the above, Sygic also has sign recognition, map downloads and even a cockpit that allows us to enjoy a greater amount of data about our vehicle and the route we are following at all times. Drawing a series of functions that, if we add them to all the above and the rest of the features offered by the app, make it a good alternative to the better known ones.
It wasn’t all good news. Unlike Google Maps or Waze, Sygic is a paid application and we will have to pay its almost €18 a year to enjoy all the advantages it offers. To decide whether it is a good option or not, or whether it is worth the expense, you can always opt for the free week trial offered on Google Play and see for yourself.
