Voice off

I don’t like any more always soft ware annoying pushing for premium upgrades even l spend bit of money on it now don’t let me navigate with voice only if upgrading.

Bug still there

Lane guidance and junction view it’s showing under + and - ( zoom in and out) should showing on top

Just use google for free

Directions are very good but no time savings vs Google plus The best features cost $$ vs Google offers for free

Still does remember the voice you set

This release fails to fix a bug where if you set the voice to Serena Premium. The app will randomly change it to another voice

Sygic - still spamming to try and upsell

Ive had sygic premium for several years. Ive updated every time and it has become more stable. What hasnt changed is that every time it starts instead of going to navigation it insists on displaying the upsell screen to premium plus. Which you have to dismiss before you can actually use the app. Annoying to the point where i other apps. Neither TomTom or Magic Earth (both paid) insist on this annoying spam upsell.

Features

I wouldn’t bother. Every so often i re-download this app to see if they still charge extra for using Apple Carplay and yes they still do. How many other satnav apps such as Google Maps, Maps or Waze charge for this or live traffic info or map updates? Answer: none of them!

Disappointed

I use to love the app and used it often when I lived in New Jersey, now I live in McDonough GA and I seldom can get the app to calculate routes anywhere and when it does it takes a ridiculous amount of time. I’ve tried to change my home address without success, the app freezes up. I am considering canceling my subscription. I am now having trouble submitting this review.

Solid navigation

Awful Map Colours

I would use Sygic but the available maps themes are terrible. The standard one looks dated and ugly. The modern one is too dark with terrible contrast making roads near impossible to see on the flip side the light mode is too bright and makes your eyes hurt.

Sygic either needs to add the ability to change the colours manually, add a modern theme that is lighter on dark mode and darker on light mode or add a new theme.

Additionally I would like to see 3D buildings as we see on Apple and Google maps along with smoother movements.

As it stands, Sygic is a great navigation app but made usable by the poor maps colours and contrast.

Fantastic Navigation

You really couldn’t ask for anything else. Sygic has everything you need and many things you didn’t know you needed.

Lane guidance is now hidden by the zoom buttons rendering it useless

I rely heavily on the lane guidance. The latest build that was released near the end of September 2026. Now forces the menu buttons to be on the top layer and hides the lane guidance unless you actually stare at it while you’re driving creating a safety issue. It defeats the purpose of purchasing this app. Would go back to Google Maps or the default Apple app until Sygic figure figures out how to fix this terrible bug.

Traffic Not Working US - East Coast

Traffic is not working. I thought it was because I had a lifetime premium license. And that I needed to upgrade to premium plus. So I did that still no change so I wasted money. It’s not loading me the traffic. I’ll be in the traffic and it is still so green to my destination. Or either I’ll drive right into the traffic and then it’ll be delayed and tell me that my route has traffic. I don’t understand what’s going on. This app used to be perfect.

Very helpful

Lifesaver

Powerful but switching back to Apple maps

After trying it out twice, on familiar routes, these are my findings:

Sygic told me it couldn’t find a route. After I went a little way and tried again, it worked.

Dropped me once while I was en route. Perhaps user error.

I was going to be on Road A for 12 miles or so. Instead of telling me after 12 miles to turn left on Road B road, it told me, with every single light I went through, which lane to be in and to keep going straight, often telling me to keep going straight two or three times per intersection. Over and over again. I made an adjustment in settings, turned off lane guidance, and I noticed no difference. I would prefer a simple setting and just to be told to stay on the road for X miles and turn left on Road B.

The Sygic Voice is a mechanical voice, not a natural voice.

When I chose to go a different way from the provided route, it took a very long time for the app to re-calculate, kept trying to get me to make U-turns instead of allowing me to go on my chosen route.

I needed to turn left onto Road B from Road A. It is not a hard left, but I was still turning onto a different street. Map app told me to continue straight onto Road
B (not instructing me to make the needed turn). If I had not been familiar with the intersection, I would have taken the wrong road.

3D maps stopped working

I have the premium+ but the 3D maps not available in CarPlay any more I canceled auto renewals due next week. Tried everything shows only 2d maps not what I paid for there should be a refund. I noticed that when parked I get 3d maps but when driving it changes to 2b maps wast of money better use free maps.

Freeze

After i bought the premium. It cant work. Totally frozen. All way tried. But still not working

Mr alan

It’s got all you want on premium

Functions that we needed as a premium user!

The app would really benefit from a refresh of the map UI and overall theme. The current design still feels outdated, and the newer theme does not yet cover all map elements. There is also limited 3D detail for buildings and surroundings. A more modern and visually detailed experience, similar to Google Maps, would greatly improve Sygic.

Another important issue is the backup and synchronisation of favourites. Saved locations should reliably sync across devices using the same Apple ID. I installed Sygic on my iPad, but none of my favourites from my iPhone appeared, despite iCloud backup being enabled.

Please also add custom categories for Favourites. Instead of being limited to predefined categories such as Free Time, Travel, and Friends & Family, users should be able to create, rename and manage their own categories.

As a Premium user who regularly relies on Sygic, I would really appreciate a modernised map design, better 3D visuals, proper cross device favourites sync, custom favourite categories, and the return of the previous arrival sound.

Pay to use CarPlay

Needs zero stars!! It won’t even let you use in Apple CarPlay without paying for the Premium Subscription. Immediately DELETED!

Sorry, wanted to give it a chance but not paying to have it connect to Apple CarPlay!!
