Pros and cons of CoPilot HD USA & Canada app for iPhone and iPad

CoPilot HD USA & Canada app good for

I am sure it is probably the best program to use for the US but Canada maps are inferior in quality. Many lakes and rivers disappear when zooming in. For example zooming in on city of Ottawa makes Ottawa river disappear. Same happens to Montreal and many other places.I guess they are just not mapped at higher resolution maps. Park borders are not mapped at all. The best you can count on is POI mark with the name and many are missing completely. Surprisingly just scroll down same map across the border and everything works just fine.
I have a silly number GPS and GPS nav apps on my iOS devices. There is some redeeming feature, and often stand out feature for each of them. This not the prettiest, there is no three dimensionality in its in the maps, and the maps themselves are not the best in my home region of Vancouver island. HOWEVER, I am in my third summer of using iOS apps to navigate while travelling on my bike. I would typify my style as light dual sport. Meaning, I fear no gravel or dirt road, but avoid single track. CoPilot has been with me on these adventures, along side of tomtom, igo, motionX, navfree; and non-directing apps Gaia, pocket earth, and allstays. Only CoPilot has a specific motorcycle vehicle profile. I also own a stand alone Garmin nav device. (Dont get me started). I find the combination of pocket earth, allstays (maps thousands of campgrounds and more - well worth the money) and CoPilot to yield the most satisfying results. Youre nuts if you dont have real good physical maps to plan on, by the way. Like every computer program, this is a tool that will respond best to your best instructions. Copilot offers the best manual routing by far! You can drag routes, and modify or remove waypoints way more easily than other apps. Just returned from an Oregon outback adventure where we meandered across the tops of inland and coastal mountain ranges. At every decision point, copilot saved us a stop to consult the map books. I recently bought tomtom because of its new winding roads planning option. It is early days, and I hope it improves. I would not suggest it over CoPilot. If CoPilots app continues to improve, and maybe takes a harder look at being a motorcycle community pleaser, it can rise head and shoulders above other apps. As a final note, they are very responsive to map errors Ive sent in. Please take the time to submit these, whatever GPS you choose. Community input from a legion of users on the ground is a great way to eliminate map errors and oversights.
I love CoPilot Live! It works very well and offers a lot of functionality for the price. Id recommend it to anyone!
Very accurate better than tomtom doesnt use any data unless authorized, great gps quarter of the price of normal units. Only draw back is that copilot signage sometimes doesnt match actual road signage at exits ( ex. Road will say exit is I-83 North, but copilot will label it as I-83 West) but if you turn when it tells you too youll be just fine!
Have no fear. Go where you want. CoPilot will get you back home!
I generally just use this app in North America but just before last trip to Italy I decided to add the west Europe maps. Wow were we glad we did that! The maps pretty much worked flawlessly into small obscure places all over Tuscany and Umbria and Elba Island. We used it almost 100% of the time even walking and we never had mobile data running ever. It worked great and saved us from speeding and photo radar which are plentiful all over Italy...thanks Copilot!

Some bad moments

Its been 6 email I send them to know why I got wrong GPS position for my house and no body answer. So why buy something when no body answer? Even worst they block my email so I cannot send them question.
If you can add "clearview turn add speed limit " this app can get 5 stars and also "live traffic can show images instead red/yellow lines
Just install Copilot on my IPad mini. It doesnt work properly.Cant reach support. Waist of 20 bucks.
Hi there, this app could not find many addresses in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. It gave inaccurate results, I feel disappointed when I bought this app... It should have google search when connecting to internet to give accurate results... Not happy with the money I paid...
Save your money, this software is not intuitive maps in greater Vancouver are lacking in detail, lot of roads are shown in the (water) trying to enter an address is a problem, interacting with this program while driving will inevitably end up in a traffic accident.
Possibly the worse GPS app out there. The first time I used it I entered the correct address and what it understood instead was "please guide me to a spot, near a field, in the general region of the address, only 15 minutes away from the actual address." I thought it was a fluke you know? Maybe because it was a small town in Quebec but no, it consistently brings you to the approximate neighbourhood of your destination but never to the actual address. Also the point of interest feature is about as functional as a broken doorknob, it constantly pesters you with "Attention, point of interest!" but the POI is irrelevant to your search. Looking for a restaurant? No problem, enjoy this hotel or service station. Please take this off the market. If I could give it 0 stars I would.
