Understanding Navigation on Cigo
Navigating efficiently and accurately is crucial for a seamless experience with Cigo Tracker. This section aims to explain why navigation errors may occur and how to best utilize the tools and features within the Cigo platform to ensure precise routing. By understanding the nuances of different navigation tools and the importance of using coordinates, you can enhance your overall navigation accuracy.
There are several reasons why your navigation might occasionally direct you to the wrong location:
Variations in Address Data
Different navigation tools can vary in how they handle addresses, which can sometimes lead to discrepancies, especially in newly developed areas or distant regions.
Address Marked as Valid
On Cigo Tracker, when an address is marked as valid, it takes into account the coordinates. This ensures that even if there is a variation in the address data across different navigation tools, the coordinates remain precise and reliable.
Recommendation to Use Coordinates
Using coordinates is highly recommended because it is more precise than addresses. Regardless of the navigation app used, coordinates will guide the driver to the exact location.
Recommended Navigation app
While we recommend using Google Maps for its accuracy and reliability, it is not completely foolproof. Issues can still occur, particularly in areas with rapid development or significant geographical changes.
Best Practices for Accurate Navigation
Use Coordinates
Whenever possible, use coordinates instead of addresses. This ensures precision and consistency across all navigation tools.
Cigo Mobile App Integration
The Cigo mobile app allows you to use either addresses or coordinates. Opt for coordinates to ensure you reach the exact location every time.
How to switch between Navigation methods?
By default, when a user selects the navigation icon, the system asks each time if they want to navigate using the address or coordinates, but you can set one by default by going to the settings page of the Cigo Tracker mobile app.
