Is anyone using the copilot satnav app on a tablet or phone?
It appears so much cheaper than purchasing a dedicated satnav from Garmin or TomTom but I want some opinion on whether it works. Works in this sense means does it direct you away from routes which are too narrow, have bad humps, bad turns etc.

LL, it is dated 12th July and says it is "retiring" (strange word to use) my truck version at the next update and the app will no longer receive app and map updates after retiring.
It goes on to say:
What this means to you
We’re upgrading your truck navigation experience! You will soon be able to move to our most popular CoPilot GPS app and all your truck features, purchases and settings will be restored. Here’s a summary of how these changes may affect you:
Your existing Truck Navigation and Traffic subscription and settings will be restored in the new app. You won’t need to pay for your existing features again
You will be able to purchase or renew a Truck Navigation and Traffic subscription at anytime in the new CoPilot GPS app, just go to Main Menu > Store
Enjoy ongoing app and map updates in the new CoPilot GPS app
We will keep you updated with changes to your CoPilot truck navigation in the coming weeks.
While it is saying all my current settings will be restored I think it is implying I will in future have to pay a subscription for the truck data. because the next update is going to downgrade my truck app to the new CoPilots GPS app. Until I get further information I do not intend to go on line for the next update and will keep running on the old truck version.
peedee.
