Sygic Mobile Maps turn-by-turn voice guided navigation has been launched one week ago on all new HTC Magic Android OS phones exclusively at SingTel, StarHub and M1 in Singapore.

Sygic Mobile Maps is the first turn-by-turn voice guided navigation for Android phones available in the region. It is an on-board navigation application, i.e. with the maps – by TeleAtlas – stored in the device.

Sygic Mobile Maps turns any GPS enabled mobile phone into a personal navigation device. It is running on a range of more than 200 different devices, including 150 types of mobile phones and smartphones on Windows Mobile, Symbian and iPhone platforms. This way the Android phones users will benefit from all the feedback from other mobile OS phone users so far.
