does this iPad have a GPS? Can it be used to navigation on the oceans without WiFi connection?

GPS works well. Use it with Sygic offline navigation app all the time and in several countries.

As far as I am aware... no. There are, however, a couple of apps that will allow you to use a tablet or a phone to display a GPS. I have not yet tried this myself and suggest google for more information. I have four of these FIP's and while expensive, I do like having them and do not regret the purchase.

I am sure it is. i downloaded offline maps with the google maps app (latest version allows you to do that), and that would allow you to use navigation even without cellular service. It will only work if you have map data for the area you are in.

Not sure of your specific requirements but it does have GPS. GPS requires apps for specific functions. The one capability it lacks is a compass.

Yes - it works with no Wi-Fi. I frequently use it under very remote conditions to image the night sky. It has always connected seamlessly with my iPad and iPhone. Charlie Warren - Editor Amateur Astronomy Magazine

If you have the S&T; with GPS, yes you can use it as a GPS to navigate. I have them used all over the states for years. I bought my first in 2006 and have updated several times. I like better than the built in one in my car. I use it even when I use the one in the car. You don't have to be connected to the Internet or wifi.

I does have GPS, but no Bluetooth. It doesn't come with the case and I couldn't find a keyboard for it when I bought it.

Any app not requiring GPS. Many apps like Facebook need that GPS. Twitter worked awhile but soon update needs GPS. The tablet will also revert to 2g or edge. Many apps have grown since 2g.

Hello Moses, yes it does. The GPS also does not require a data plan to use.

The 4G cellular versions of the iPad Mini have a GPS, but the WiFi-only versions do not. All iPads have a digital compass capability, however there is no native compass App.https://www.apple.com/ipad-mini/specs/There are several Compass apps available from the App store.

As Michael said, GPS is always available outside - wifi or not. I have used map software by Sygic on roadtrips on a wifi only tablet. I assume there are other similar products but have not used any other. You have to have a wifi connection to install the software and maps of course. Then, after the map is stored on your tablet, GPS navigation works fine.

This provides GPS coordinates only. For traffic, you need internet access. I run mine with an iPad mini WiFi only. The Bad Elf provides the GPS data. I get internet via a pay-as-you-go WiFi hotspot, Internet-To-Go from Walmart. The two work together fine with my iPad mini. It works for Apple maps and Google maps.

It doesn't have a radio and I don't have any kind of data plan for the tablet so I see a google map app but I have no way of telling if it would function as a GPS.

I use the device with an iPad but with the Marine Navigation software. The devise works seamlessly and flawlessly with that software. The Bad Elf website lists the compatible navigation programs for the device.

This isn't what your looking for if you want navigation. It's easier to just say it doesn't have it cause the nav was a major fail. The last update to the unit finally gave me decent results through mirrorlink but I don't know how well GPS works with an iPhone. Pass on this one

No it does not have GPS. If you have Gps on a cell it will only play the audio.
