New Delhi, May 17, 2018: Sygic Has Launched Sygic Maps [1], The First Online Map Focused On Traveling. Unlike Other Online Maps, Sygic Maps Displays Places Of
Interest Directly On The Map, Making Trip Planning And Navigation Easier
Than Ever. Thanks To Its Integrated Itinerary Maker, You Can Build A
Day-By-Day Trip Plan Or Just Save Interesting Places For Later. The
Website Also Features A Handy Travel Guide For More Than 10,000
Destinations, Photo Galleries, 360° Videos, Hotel Search, And
Recommended Tours And Tickets. Sygic Maps Replaces The Original Sygic
Travel Planner.
MAPS FOR TRAVELING
The original web planner, Sygic Travel, has been turned into Sygic Maps
and you will find it at maps.sygic.com [1]. As the name suggests, the
map is now the focal point. “So far, we’ve been focused on detailed
itinerary planning. Our users could plan their trips, choose sights to
visit and book a hotel. In addition to that, we now want to accommodate
travelers who want to browse the map and discover interesting places.
Because unlike other online maps, we show these places directly on the
map,” says Lukáš Nevosád, VP Travel at Sygic.
Sygic Maps features a fullscreen map with a search bar in the upper left
corner, just like you are used to at Google Maps. Travelers will also
appreciate the Guide tab with collections of top sights for more than
10,000 destinations, photos, 360° videos and recommended hotels and
tours. Planned trips and favorite places can be synced directly with the
Sygic Travel app, which is available for iOS and Android. And the iOS
app has also been revamped.
BRAND NEW APP
The map is now the focal point of the iOS app as well. It helps
travelers to explore their surroundings and get oriented. “Simply open
the app and see all the interesting places around you. With our offline
map packages, the map is ready to use both online and offline. It no
longer offers solely detailed trip planning but also exploring. The app
will come handy, for example, during afternoon trips. We are the first
ones to combine a map with a travel guide, worldwide. We are also
working on a similar update of the Sygic Travel app for Android,” adds
Lukáš Nevosád.
VISIONS
The original travel planning website, travel.sygic.com [2], will be
gradually turned into a travel magazine. In addition, the Sygic Travel
team is constantly improving the content, preparing translations into
other languages and working on a smartwatch integration.
