I do love UKTramps protectiveness of Copilot…it’s like it’s your little brother and it’s getting picked on by those mean TomTom bullies
I don’t even have a TomTom. My £40 quid novatec seems better. Maybe I can’t use copilot but I am reasonably tech savvy so suggest it says as much about copilot as me
Reef:
I didn’t say they had the same software I said they ran the same MAP DATA! But as someone “in the know” you no doubt already knew that they both run Navteq and TomTom run (and own) Tele Atles eh?UKtramp:
So no apparent reasoning behind your post then, just a lot of utter nonsense.Yeah let’s just go with that, I’m not going to get into a prolonged arguement with someone whose sole purpose is to trigger a reaction, you do you eh.
Wrong again. I cannot argue with your knowledge as it is impossible! Do you believe the earth is flat and we never went to the moon?

The TomTom bullies always gang up on me, it is comforting to know they could never find me though even if I gave them my coordinates.

mixed views from me. Have used copilot happilly previously. Been on Google maps for a year now. Downloaded copilot trial and tried it in Edinburgh yesterday. It wanted me to take all sorts of rat runs when a straight road was easier. Google maps confirmed this. Not ideal when your in a plant wagon with a huge tailswing. Ill keep it running alongside google just for the low bridges and weight limit warnings. Maybe it will learn easier routes.No it doesn’t learn easier routes, that is your job. You are using it correctly in one sense but not in another. You are supposed to check every route that any satnav gives you against a truckers atlas and adjust it if you have a better route. CoPilot like any other satnav is a tool to aid you with navigation. I have used CoPilot truck for years and rarely do I need to alter a route that it gives. Even so I would never trust any satnav to route me without checking it first. You can easily alter your route with CoPilot truck, that is one of the best features of it and why it is designed by and used by truckers world wide.
You really are a condescending ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■. Cant help but open your wizards sleeve to gush your ■■■■■■■■■ all over our screens.

The gps and processor of an ipad as an example, will outrun any stand alone satnav on the market. It is faster and has far more uses than a stand alone satnav. Most people have a smart phone nowadays. All the points you mention are completely invalid.The iPhones have a dual core processor (and has to run many other apps in the background, you know like being a phone and such like), whilst the new TomToms have a quad core processor and have to concentrate on… Well, being a Satnav
UKtramp:
As for Aponia that you keep wittering on about that you have, it works on the same principle as you are saying as a downside? Why would you have a TomTom and Aponia?And do you know why I started “wittering on about” Aponia? Because someone wouldn’t stfu about Co Pilot at every given opportunity!
I never once have said that Aponia is better or worse than Co Pilot, I have however said that Aponia is cheaper for much the same thing running the exact same map data.
Why would I have a TomTom? Easy 1) I like TomToms, 2) It frees up my phone to run other useful apps like driver timers or PornHub 3) TT Live Traffic beats EVERYTHING else out there, 4) Aponia app has paid for itself I bought it 3-4 yrs ago for £15 (full Europe maps) and have had it on 4 separate devices (current phone, old phone, Hudl2 and my Lenovo 10" tablet) 5) I can afford a TomTom 6) It apparently ■■■■■■ you off

You do not make any sense at all.I’ve seen you write that exact comment to so many people on here, yet you are the one spouting complete bollux most of the time… ironic huh.
take no notice reef , he is full of crap and only on here to push a shoddy product
UKtramp:
You are using CoPilot professional, not CoPilot truck. I now can understand why you had issues.
Hmm. Somewhat mystified now. The software announces itself by saying “Welcome to CoPilot Professional” although the splash screen clearly reads “CoPilot Truck Professional” and some of the “about” screens say it is CoPilot Live…

No reef, your just one of the many little know it alls on here who actually knows nothing. You would really like to fit in so to speak but you really don’t. Every single one of your boring posts is full of either nonsense or agreeing with the sheep on here. You have nothing to give. Every time you post your rubbish on here, no one actually answers you, hardly surprising really. Why do you keep reading my posts , oh yes I remember now, another stupid comment of yours of “I will be there when he falls” what a complete and utter boring little whimp you are. Now off you pop and go cry to the mods.

No not a lot, I only use it. But there are a lot of different versions of CoPilot. Seems you know even less than me.

Talk about calling the kettle black and trying to fit in
If anyone is doing that its dozy 2
With all the nonsense he talks about and untruths he posts he can’t keep up with it himself, talk about tripping yourself up he does it in most posts
You should have no problem picking up a lady of the night now with your new green clobber and green truck and you could bore them with your fantasy world
Had a chance to try the Copilot Truck today on 8 drops in London (and yes, I have downloaded the correct software, and it is fully up to date) in a 7.5 tonner. Vehicle dimensions set accordingly (including width at 7ft 6ins). On three separate occasions Copilot came up with routes through long established width restrictions - 2 at 7ft 2ins, once at 6ft 6ins, plus wanting to turn right at a junction where this was not allowed. Not very encouraging, and I was glad to have my trusty TomTom alongside to provide sensible (and legal) routing advice.
I won’t be buying this product once the 14 day trial period ends.

I don’t do a lot of London deliveries so it isn’t a concern to me, I do a lot on the outskirts and never had a problem though. I cannot comment on how you have had these problems as I and countless others who use it have not either. All I can say is if your using it to simply follow then yes any satnav will give you problems. Did you not see the restrictions on your map when you checked your route against it, as then you can adjust your satnav before setting off and then it is safe to follow.
