Default Best navigation app for ios?

Throwing an ipad in the truck when my dash gets here and looking to purchase a nav app for it.

Who's got what? Tell me what you like and don't. Offline maps is essential.

I've researched navigon, sygic and copilot the most but can't make up my mind. Open to any suggestions though.

Any other must have apps for in truck use lmk too!

Thanks fellas

Still think google maps is the best you can get for iOS. Even Waze since you will get notifications for police and accidents

I've used Navigon for years. I bought the package with all North American maps. I only use it when a data connection is not available (extreme rural areas, Canada, etc.). I think the total cost was around $50.

It works pretty well, but I haven't compared it to a competitor like Tom Tom due to the cost.
