New release of Navigon for IOS, IPAD screen full use, lane guidance, changed screens, fixed disappearing menus, can select exact location on the map and add to navigation now, POIs search via google built in........ overall good additions/fixes.

Still think this is one of the best IOS apps,

Any way of restoring the TTS voice to the lovely lady from previous version?

Can't stand the male version; sounds like he's about to say, "Mind the gap"!

i'll admit that the quality is VERY good fr the TTS, I just prefer the female voice...!

It sounds like it may be very like Garmin's "Daniel". What I've got on my PND sounds identical. Navigon's 'new global voice provider' is now Nuance, same as with Garmin (I assume they still provide their voices).

I seem to be in a very small minority in preferring the clarity of the new male voice, mainly because of my Mutt&Jeffness, I suppose.

It may be me, but in the new Version, it takes you to the 'enter an address or poi' screen, if you just want the map there (and moving of course) maybe using 3d or pana, how do you change the screen without doing a calculation ? Sometimes it seems it responds to a double tap in the screen......... but other times nothing at all, also until you can get out of this can't use IPOD controls, in the older version you went straight to map and then selected to calculate ? Any advice or where I have missed the point, welcomed.

then, along the bottom:
Main Menu / Contacts / Recents / Favourites / More

although these are configurable by pressing 'more' and then 'edit'

What do you see?
