Does this ONLY work with Garmin GPS products? Or can iPhone and Android users download a program to find/query it?

I know there is an android app that works with the chirp, and would assume iphone has one also. I have used the android app and it works well.

will this work with NavFree USA? If so then the app to run it would be free.http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/navfree-usa/id405922167?cjid=10492644-1225267-u0t2499803f4fp0c0s5814

Yes and No. You cannot install an app to do navigation on this unit. With that said, if you have Garmin installed on your iPhone 5S, and you connect the phone with the USB cable to the radio, then you can display the GPS map from the phone on the Radio display! The display is just a display, and has no ability to do touch commands. You control the app from your phone. It works but I was not that impressed with the quality of the image on the radio. Hope this helps. PD. BTW... It is a great radio! My favorite feature, I love streaming Pandora from my phone to the unit. If you connect an iPhone via USB cable and run the Pandora app on the radio, it will by-pass the commercials, giving you pure music! Even better, on an Android phone, you can connect via BT and still have the commercial free Pandora (no cable needed). It works great. Also I strongly, very strongly, suggest you also get a rear view camera installed. Will never have a car without a rear view camera. That is the best. All cars should have it.

Hey Dave,No, that's whats nice about this receiver. All you need to do is buy a GPS app that fits you, they range in price from about $15 to over $60. I use CoPilot, also I have an iPod so Make sure you have a 30 pin connector on your iPhone. If your not sure what app will work for you or if the receiver is compatible with your device just email Emprum at support@emprum.com They will probably get back to you the same day.

1. this product has paired with both of my android devices, running android 2.x and 4.x respectively. the bluetooth pairing is simple, but to access the GPS data within android apps, you need to set android developer options to "allow mock locations," and then run a small middleware utility on the android device. i use "Bluetooth GPS Provider" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mobilej.btgps&hl;=en but several similar utilities have all worked fine. 2. others using this setup claim it works with google maps, i haven't tried it.

no, this unit is only recognized by the i phone and by downloading the i phone app for either the navcon gps app or the garmin gps app for i phone, app available thru apple app downloads. the audio can go thru an rca audio jack but the gps i for ation is only as stated above.

This is just the GPS signal receiver, not a complete GPS unit. It works well, but specific features such as altimeter readings are going to depend on which iPod app you use. Many people end up using several apps, depending on need. I use Gaia w/ USGS topo maps loaded, which of course give altitude readings with the topo lines. The basic app that comes with the UltiMate gives speed and altitude readings, although I have no way of knowing how accurate they are.

I have attempted to pair this with both my iPhone 3G running 3.1 and a Garmin Nuvi 660 at the same time and have not had any luck. Of course I may just be an idiot and not know what the hell I am doing.

The iphone app is only one way to keep track, it is quick and easy as a portable means. You can also go online to Garmin and see the location of the tracker from any internet access.

It is pretty much made for an IPhone I'm not sure how big you Garmin is. It was to small for my Galaxy S3

It usually works fine with Apple Maps for me. It has been more intermittent with Google Maps.

Im pretty sure they did not include gps hardware with the device. Since android is a mobile OS, it has gps features hard coded into it, wether your hardware can utilize it or not.

No...it uses the garmin or waze app from your phone via cable but only iPhone 4S or older

Yes it does but I recommend you buy the ipod/gps connect cord, it's about $30. Then it's about $50 for garmin app.

Ihave a magellan which is done through them. For the garmin, I believe you have to go to the fathom alert website and download to your computer and open the file. i believe you can get all the info from them. I hope it works for you. joe

It will work with all garmin devices because of the ball socket that is standard on all their GPS units. I love mine!
