So I've read a bunch of threads on several websites and I'm confused and I don't want to be directed elsewhere, so if you can help, awesome. I want to use a app like Gaia or Back country navigator. I currently have an iPhone 8 plus, and an iPad pro without cellular. The primary use will be in my atv, to map trails that have not been mapped by anyone else. I'll never use it for highway navigation and probably never leave central PA. I just want to be able record, save, and share routes.
Option 1: If I use the iPhone, and download maps ahead of time, will the GPS work when there is no cell coverage? Does it even have true GPS? I get mixed answers on this.
Option 2: Get an external blue tooth GPS to go with iPad. For this, I like the big screen but don't necessarily like extra gadget(s) to charge, connect, etc. If this is the best solution, then can anyone recommend a device?
Option 3: Buy a Galaxy Tablet with GPS
Thoughts on these...?
