Copilot release Live Traffic/Fuel Android/windows

[amir_j]

Just got an email announcing now available, they have been doing in states for a while so good to finally get it.

Priced at 19.99, assuming a one off fee which is a bargain compared than tomtom's, dont know how will compare though. Have been using the local search option lately and happy with that (had a top of range tomtom 940 to compare too).

Will report back

£19.99 is a 12 month subscription. Still, that's reasonable IMO.

I'm downloading it now

Yup, came up as 12 months, still cheaper than the tomtom live I used to have at 8 a month or something!

On Android its not the most user friendly, so instructions for noobs:

1) Go to http://www.alk.eu.com/buynow/liveservices/ and click add to cart.
2) On the next screen will ask for product key, this is found by launching co-pilot on phone, then go to Setting and scroll till you see 'About Co-pilot'. Enter this and you product key will be listed
3) put this on the web page and pay
4) You will get an email with a new product key
5) go to setting -> licensing and click upgrade
6) put in the new key and click through to end

Only problem is that I have not found a way to find out either how long the delay is or how long the traffic queue is.

Result is you don't know whether the jam is worth avoiding. I gave up a couple of weeks ago as the traffic was st, and CoPilot Live traffic did not really help me.
