gps
We are taking a trip out west this April. We usually use google maps for directions but what does everyone use these days. Thought about Garmin but every system has +s and -s What does everyone use? ...
I use gaia gps i like it for the fact that i can download a map to my i pad or android device and i dont need cell or gps signal to see where i am goingand most phones today can handle the max size that gaia store some where around 100k tiles (1gig) with no issues
With multiple “free” ways to get directions and look at maps on todays cellular devices, has pretty much negated the need or usefulness of standalone gps based apps or devices imo.
Especially if just talking public roads. Even in spotty or no cell service. In those areas one generally isn’t tryin to navigate difficult directions.
But to each their own.
