Get Co-Pilot USA REAL GPS for 4.99

I got it yesterday, you can't beat the price for a real GPS. Its only 5 bucks and you get all the USA maps directly to your phone. I got it yesterday and at this price its a steal. TomTom wanted 50 bucks for theirs. It has built in voice and for 2.99 extra you get TTS that pronounces street names through in app purchase.

The cool thing about this app is you don't need data since the maps are on board and it has 3D view. It looks and feels just like a real GPS similiar to Garmin or TomTom without the cost. The POI search is very well done and you can connect online for more info. It also has built in weather. IF you want Canada maps, its an extra 12.99 and if you want a traffic subscription, its 19.99 a year through in app purchase. Personally, I only bought the TTS for 2.99 since I can use google maps for traffic and I hardly go to Canada.

Not sure if the price is permanent or if its a special sale. Also, if you buy it, it takes like an hour to download it on a fast wifi connection since its a 1.5 GB download. Once you buy it, you can put it on other iphones that you own if you use the same app store name and password, just a hint.

Re: Get Co-Pilot USA REAL GPS for 4.99

Thanks man, good find..

Damn this is a hard decision. I Currently have NDrive and it works fine some glitches but for the most part fine. Seeing how it isnt in the app catalog anymore makes me believe that there wont be anymore updates for it so it makes me consider getting this... DAMN!

I tested Co-Pilot yesterday and it worked great. Also, it seems to include the Canada maps (at least Ontario) even though they don't mention it. The POI search is actually better and faster than my GF's Garmin that I paid $250 for on Christmas.

The only downside is that you have to manually kill the program in the task manager or else the GPS signal will stay on in the background and kill your battery. I think they are working on an update to fix it, but might as well buy it now in case they increase the price.

Re: Get Co-Pilot USA REAL GPS for 4.99

Excellent find! I snagged a copy, looks to be at least as usable as TomTom, at just about 1/10th the price.

You totally have to kill it in the background when you're done. It just keeps trucking away back there until you put a bullet in its zombie behind
