Real View Navigation is a feature that is included in the Premium+ subscription, that will enable a new and unique method of displaying your route and navigation instructions. This technology is also known as „Augmented Reality“ or AR, and while some other apps have used it for different purposes, Sygic is the first to bring it to navigation. Real View works anywhere in the world, it doesn’t have any special requirements for your device to be able to use it, and it works offline so no internet connection is required.
Instead of the classic view where you see the route on a map, Real View draws the line of the route directly over a live image of the road ahead of you which is captured by the camera of your phone or tablet. You just have to place your device so its rear camera has a clear view forward through your windshield.
A major advantage of this mode, is that you can still see what is happening on the road before you, even during moments while you are glancing at the screen of your device.
How to set it up:
You can enable Real View Navigation via SmartCam feature.
1. Open SmartCam.
2. Enable Real View Navigation.
3. Tap on “Start”.
4. To exit the video preview screen and return to the navigation, tap on “Back to map” button.
