By opening up Android Auto for third-party developers, Google essentially allowed software makers to release alternatives even to its own apps, including Google Maps, which right now continues to be the preferred navigation solution for most people out there.
This week, Sygic is joining the party with its very own navigation solution that’s finally available for everybody on Android Auto. After rolling out a beta last year, Sygic’s GPS Navigation now comes with Android Auto support, offering a fully-featured experience right on the car’s head unit.
