Sygic: GPS Navigation 13.1.3 BETA

Hi guys !
Allow us to introduce the new Sygic GPS Navigation 13.1 BETA for Android!
We have added a new feature and we need you, our users, to help us with testing and improving things before the final release.

What’s new ?

1. Improved Traffic information service
-          redesigned route summary now contains more info and user reported traffic
-          traffic view allows you to quickly check nearby traffic situation
-          traffic bar rolls traffic info for calculated route
-          graphic redesign



2. Overall improved stability and speed of application

Here is a small FAQ to prevent any misunderstandings:

Can I use this 13.1.3 BETA application ?
New BETA app can be used by users with licensed Sygic: GPS Navigation app, or, for users with valid trial period.
Please note that the GPS Navigation license needs to be one from our e-shop at www.sygic.com for the beta to work.

What do I need to do to install this 13.1.3 BETA application ?

1. You need to have Sygic: GPS Navigation app installed on your device from Google Play Store.
2.  Download beta .apk installation file to your device.
3. Make sure that option for installing apps from unknown sources (non-Market apps) is turned on, on your device. You can find it in Android Settings > Security > Unknown sources.
4. If you do not have any file manager app installed, you can choose one from Google Play Store.
   For example, you can use ES File Explorer File Manager or ASTRO File Manager.
5. We recommend you to make a backup (copy) whole “Sygic” folder from your SD card/internal memory to prevent data loss (maps, favorites, custom POI etc.) in case of failure.
6. Open file manager and search for .apk file that you have just downloaded from the link above, when you find it, install it.
7. That’s all. Now open the new Sygic app from application menu of your device and wait until all resources files are downloaded.

(Please, use WiFi connection to do this, it is faster and saves you a lot of MB from your mobile data plan).

How can I move back to stable market version after BETA test ?
Just delete the whole “Sygic” folder from SD card/internal memory and install the original  Sygic” folder that you have backed-up.  After this, open Google Play Store and look for Sygic: GPS Navigation, uninstall and install it again (it will replace BETA .apk with stable .apk from Google Play Store).
This is all you need to do before using new BETA app, now we come to the main part.

We will really appreciate if you can test these features:

1. New and better Traffic information service
 Users with Traffic subscription are able to see new Traffic Information Service redesign and improvements.
After clicking in Traffic button in upper left corner, you will be switched to Traffic mode with darker theme, so it is easier to see the traffic.
On your route, you can see traffic delay. After clicking on it, you can see average speed on route with traffic.

2. Overall improved stability and speed of application 
Just do whatever you want in Sygic app. If you will find any problem, crash or something unusual, just let us know in feedback form.

Please fill in following  web form after testing, so we can check all the problems that need to be fixed before final release.
