Kurviger Features Website and App
For general information about Kurviger and the actual Kurviger app as well as subscriptions, see the information pages on the website:
https://kurviger.de/about/en
https://kurviger.de/premium/en
and in Google Play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kurviger.app
Comparison, overview
This is only a rough overview. There are more features in detail.
Consider: Some features are only usable with the Kurviger website and / or Kurviger app! Depending on the route transfer, some advantages of the Kurviger features are not usable, because they are not supported by the route transfer, the target device or the target application!
As a service for the users of the apps Kurviger (version 2.x) without and with subscription or Kurviger Pro (version 1.x) the overview also contains their features. So a comparison of the previous apps with the current app Kurviger (version 3.x) is also possible.
For the labels “subT”, “beta”, “tba”, “! ! ! DISCONTINUED ! ! !”, “++” and “subP”:
Features labeled subT are included on the Kurviger website and in the Kurviger app (version 3.x) in the premium version Kurviger Tourer and can only be used for monthly or annual fees (Kurviger Tourer subscription). The first 7 days of Kurviger Tourer subscription are a test period. During the test period and in case of cancellation during the test period you do not have any costs.
The features labeled tba are missing in the Kurviger app (version 3.x). It is not yet sure when these features will be available in the app.
The apps labeled ! ! ! DISCONTINUED ! ! ! will not be developed further and are no longer installable for new customers. Already installed apps and associated subscription can still be used for a certain time (until the end of their runtime, or incompatibility with Android version).
The features labeled subP are included in the app Kurviger (version 2.x) and already subscribed and can only be used for monthly or yearly costs (Kurviger Pro Subscription).
The features labeled ++ are included in the Kurviger Pro (1.x) version. They were paid for when the Kurviger Pro (1.x) app was purchased and do not cause any further costs for the user.
