Popular mapping and navigation app, Sygic, is currently offering lifetime licenses to its service for a serious discount. The prices are valid on all its packs covering all regions and is available through all its apps, including Windows 10.
Prices have been cut by up to 75% on lifetime licenses, and prices naturally vary depending on where you're buying and which region you're buying for. The screenshots below show a quick break down of prices in USD and GBP.

You also seem to be able to bundle traffic for a little more, with an email Sygic is sending out to current customers showing a $24.99 subscription for North America with traffic. The prices above presumably only include access to maps and navigation.
This probably isn't for everyone, indeed many are probably fine with the free maps on their phone already. But for anyone looking for something a little more serious, Sygic has been a solid choice up to this point. The paid for access gives you 3D maps and voice navigation, and it runs on TomTom maps and points of interest, which in itself is enough for some to drop their money.
Maps are stored on the device, so don't require a data connection, and there are a number of other things you can plug in like traffic and live parking information. I used Sygic exclusively on a road trip across Northern Europe last year and found it to be an excellent, and most of all, reliable product.

Overview[edit]
Sygic navigation systems work on mobile phones and tablets with GPS and use screen and audio signals to provide door-to-door information for well-oriented travel, live traffic & police radar/speed camera warnings, parking place and gas prices suggestions.
Sygic GPS navigation is all-round full featured application that focuses on its wide usability.[5] It can be used both online and offline, runs on Android, iOS, Windows Phone and Symbian operating systems, offers maps for more than 200 countries in the world and operates in more than 30 languages.
Sygic navigation uses 2D & 3D maps from TomTom for both online and offline use.[6][7]
Users of Sygic GPS navigation can download maps to their devices and use them in situations when they need navigation but have no internet connection. Sygic optimizes data download sizes to allow users to use maps offline while using the minimum amount of memory on their devices. 'With the Sygic GPS Navigation app, downloading the whole state of California takes up 330 MB. This 330 MB includes complete street coverage, all the data necessary for turn-by-turn navigation, information about points of interest, as well as landmarks and 3D terrain for easy orientation.'[8][third-party source needed]
Sygic delivers its GPS software worldwide in more than 30 languages, including Chinese, Arabic, Persian, Greek, Russian and many European languages. In 2016 Sygic created a translation project on Crowdin 'dedicated to localization of Sygic app to all languages'.[9] Project localization is open to public that can contribute to Catalan, Urdu, Persian, Malay, Tamil, Latvian and other languages.
Real-time traffic information is based on TomTom Traffic. Traffic information is collected from more than 400 million drivers and updated every 2 minutes. 'GPS data is collected from connected personal navigation devices (PNDs), commercial fleet GPS devices, mobile phone signals, road sensors, journalistic data, smartphones and car dashboard systems.'[10] Users do not report anything - the data is collected automatically and anonymously.

Sygic has been honored by Deloitte as the
#6th Technology Fastest-growing Technology Company in Central & Eastern Europe for the years 2007 and 2008[11]
