NAVIGON 2.0 is the first iPhone onboard navigation app that separates the app from the maps, allowing users to choose which map regions to download to their device. This will not only save some storage space on your iPhone or iPad, but speeds up the update process. So if you're not planning on leaving your state soon, you can download only the maps for your state and pick up other on an as-need basis. MyMaps allows users to download maps by region. Should you need to reset or change your phone, you’ll still be able to download and use the Navigon app from your app store library, provided you don’t change operating system (for instance from Apple to Android), as they are separate products.Ĭan’t decide whether a smartphone app or dedicated sat nav unit would be the best solution for you?

However, with a cost structure for the apps that included a hefty initial purchase price, as well as annual subscriptions for premium features such as live traffic services, it would appear to have struggled against a raft of free-to-download competition from the likes of Google and Waze. This will end a 25-year run for the German brand, which Garmin acquired in 2011. Garmin is citing ‘strategic reasons’ for the decision. The move affects all of its vehicle navigation apps – the most relevant to UK users is Navigon Europe for Android and iOS devices. Garmin’s Navigon sat nav apps are to be withdrawn from sale from 14 May, the company announced today.
