Android Auto & Apple CarPlay Are Back for Lifetime Users

Because You Asked, and We Listened

At Sygic, we’ve always believed in something simple:
A great navigation app isn’t built by algorithms. It’s built with people. With their trust, their feedback, and their everyday stories from the road.

Earlier this year, we introduced changes to how Android Auto and Apple CarPlay work.
Many of you told us honestly that the change affected your daily driving comfort. And you were right.

So today, we’re doing something important.

CarPlay and Android Auto access is officially returning for Lifetime users.

Not the full PREMIUM+ version, but the access you used to have, restored exactly as before

Why?
Because you asked. We listened. And we acted.

We value loyalty, fairness, and long-term relationships -not shortcuts.

We listened to stories from our drivers who rely on CarPlay and Android Auto every day:

  • Parents driving their kids safely to school
  • Professional drivers who spend hours on the road
  • Travelers exploring new regions
  • People who simply enjoy the comfort of their infotainment screen

We want you to feel that Sygic is a partner you can rely on, not a product that forgets its own users.

Restoring CarPlay/Android Auto access is our way of saying:
Thank you for staying with us. Your trust matters.

What’s Returning for Lifetime Users?

Lifetime users now once again have access to:

  • 2D navigation on your car’s screen
  • Current speed information
  • Distance Remaining time and ETA

These essential fundamentals let you navigate comfortably and safely using your car's built-in display without needing a PREMIUM+

And for those who want the full CarPlay / Android Auto experience, PREMIUM+ remains available as a powerful upgrade. But the important part is:
You have your access back. Fully and permanently.

Your CarPlay/ Android Auto vs. PREMIUM+ CarPlay /Android Auto— What’s the Difference?

Here’s the clear breakdown of what is included for Lifetime users and what becomes available with PREMIUM+.
