CoPilot is a free navigation app provided by the leader in GPS navigation ALK Technologies Inc. It has gained a huge popularity on iOS and Android and is now available for Windows Phone 8. As the mobile navigation apps usually depend on the mobile connection, those which offer offline navigation are irreplaceable for the customers. CoPilot is exactly such kind of an app. It is designed to work offline and to provide guidance without any mobile connection.

With CoPilot the users get detailed offline maps, reliable tools for route planning and local exploring, and millions of Points of Interest. The offline maps can be downloaded from the store just like Nokia maps. Having them installed on their smartphones, the users get detailed street, country or region maps, travelling and walking directions, and the opportunity to plan and calculate the routes. With the embedded Points of Interest it is very easy for them to explore the local areas and to find the near shops, restaurants, hotels, etc.

CoPilot GPS for Windows Phone 8 comprises the following free features: high quality 2D street maps for offline usage, millions of Points of Interest, powerful route planning with option for choice up to 3 different routes and drag-and-drop route editing, walking mode, elaborate local search which integrates Google, Wikipedia and Yelp and route optimizer which calculates the best route. CoPilot GPS also includes full voice guided car navigation with turn-by-turn guidance, voice instructions, speed limit warnings and lane indicator arrows, as well as real-time traffic service which are free for use 14 days. After that they can be purchased through an in-app purchase. The in-app purchase model is very appropriate for those users who do not intend to use all of the app`s features as they can pay only for the features they use.

This app is for Windows Phone 8 only.
