I've used Copilot GPS on my Android phone for years. I think it's about £25 for worldwide maps. The maps are stored on the device, so don't need an internet connection to work. You just download the areas you're going to drive in (ideally over WiFi 
).
I also have an Android head unit on my Gen4 and either use Google Maps, or Copilot GPS on that if the internet connection is ropey.
In addition, I pay about £12 a year for the live traffic information in the CoPilot app. It gives a nice colour coded time line at the right side of the map so you can see where heavier traffic is over your journey and also estimates what the current delay will be. If this delay is too long the app will suggest an alternate route if possible. 10/10 from me.
