Downloads of Sygic GPS Navigation app for Android have exceeded the figure of 100 000 in the first month after its launch. Today the app is flying with aroun the same number of downloads every three days.

"The demand for downloads of our app is so huge that we had to rebuild our server infrastructure completely from scratch. Ensuring accessibility all around the world was a challenge." says Peter Pecho, Co-Founder and Research & Development Director at Sygic.

"With so many customers asking questions, it was necessary to rethink the way we engage with our community. We brought our support onto an open forum. It is now much easier for users to interact with the Sygic team as well as with each other." says Simona Parnicka, Community Supervisor at Sygic.
