Cultural Tip
In Brazilian Portuguese, 'logo' is very common in spoken language to mean 'soon' or 'in a moment'. In more formal writing you might prefer 'em breve' or 'daqui a pouco' to avoid ambiguity, as 'logo' can also mean 'right away' in some contexts. Also, remember that 'navegação' can refer to both digital navigation (websites) and maritime/air navigation, so the surrounding context clarifies the meaning.
