CoPilot Live USA GPS for iPhone launches with $4.99 introductory price tag
June 10, 2010 | Robert Nelson
If the last GPS app that I mentioned was not your thing, maybe this latest from ALK Technologies will be what you are looking for. Personally I have been eyeing the iPad version (CoPilot Live HD), but thankfully this one is priced much lower than $29.99.
The app is called CoPilot Live USA and its a navigation app for the iPhone. Its also priced at $4.99. Of course, that is only an introductory price, which means it will be going up. Anyway, the app is described as;
There are GPS navigation apps and there are PREMIUM GPS Navigation apps. With free map updates, Live Internet Search, 3D maps, Lane Assist realistic view, Multi-stop trip planning and more—CoPilot Live is full-featured, PREMIUM GPS navigation at its best.
There is one catch though, a $2.99 catch which comes in the form of text-to-speech — in other words — if you want it you will have to pay $2.99 by way of an in-app purchase. Otherwise, the features are listed as being;
- Clear 3D and 2D driving views with speed-variable zoom and full street names
- Lane Assist display and CoPilot ClearTurn™ for a realistic, clear display at complex intersections
- User interface designed to guide you clearly without unnecessary distraction
- Driver safety view that displays at-a-glance instructions and a large arrow of the upcoming turn
- Automatic day-night mode switching to reduce screen glare
- Customized routing for alternative modes of travel: Walking, Cycling, RV and Motorcycle
- Navigation to a house number, street, favorite place, intersection or address book contact
- Multiple-stop trips, waypoints, route optimization options and pre-trip planning features
- Millions of pre-loaded Points-of-Interest (POIs) to navigate to or call directly
- Smart call handling remembers your destination after a phone call
- Dial a POI (Point-of-Interest) by tapping on-screen
- Portrait/landscape display auto-switching and pinch-zoom
- Access iPod music controls from in-app
