For it can I pull the longitude and latitude from google maps and sent them in Sygic?

Yes, you can get your coordinates via Maps app. To do that:

  1. Tap on your current location or drop a pin to a location of your choosing and then tap.
  2. Tap on the arrow within the blue circle
  3. Tap on share location, choose email
  4. Send it to yourself.
  5. On the email, there should be a link and a vcard. Both of them include coordinate information. However to get the actual coordinates you'll need to copy the link in the email and paste it into, e.g. Notes, to then select just the coordinates.

And you can input the coordinates into the Sygic app.
