Sygic Navigation & FP2?

Help Fairphone 2
1

Is anyone using Sygic GPS Navigation on their FP2?
After the latest update from Sygic it just crashes whatever I do (reboot, reinstall, moving between SD & local storage).

I’ve used Sygic a lot on my previous phones and I’m reluctant to ditch it and look for other navigation apps…

I am currently using it, too. Latest update afaik (16.0.9). No crashes so far.

Only bugs/glitches/whatever so far:

  • Display of speed limit is extremely laggy. 20 min after leaving the autobahn it still said 120 km/h. In a village. For sure.
  • It often complains because of weak gps signal. Not sure if this is a FP2 or a Sygic problem however.

Thanks @bfb and @ivi !
I finally got the new version to work by uninstalling, then manually deleting the Sygic-folder, and finally reinstalling.

It’ll be interesting to see how it performs on my FP2. On my old phones I rarely had any problems with the GPS signal strength…
The speed limit display I’ve never found trustworthy in Sygic - sometimes it shows and sometimes not. And when it does show, it’s often the wrong information.

But apart from that, I think Sygic is the best offline navigation app, I’ve used it a lot both in Sweden and several other countries.

Hi All
Just wanna clear my opinion…
The GPS Modul in FP2 is very fast and strong,
I have always after sync starting within 5 sec until max 30 sec a great fix!
I mean, the catch of gps position.
I only use the gps modul without Network or mobile Data position help!

@ bfb
This kind of problem never appear on my FP2 with sync 15.x.x
