Princeton, New Jersey – Sept. 19, 2012 – CoPilot Live, the popular GPS navigation app for smartphones and tablets, releases the latest version of CoPilot Live Premium for Android. This update, version 9.3, contains features that improve the app’s core navigation functions and overall user experience. The new features include:

• Google Search: CoPilot Live’s local search is now powered by the world’s premier search engine in all applications. This was the feature most requested by CoPilot users.
