iPad as a GPS device
I recently got a wifi only (non-cellular) iPad. Is there a way to tether the iPad to an iPhone to enable using it as a GPS device?

I have a slightly different setup than what you are asking. I use a Garmin GPS receiver and connect it to my iPad via Bluetooth. Then use any navigation program you want. I get the large, easy to read screen and great useable features without relying on cell service.
I have read that an iPad with cell capability has the gps chip built in. And you do not have to pay for an extra phone number.
But to answer your question, I have not tried to connect my iPhone to my iPad for navigation. Only for hotspot use while camping.
Good luck.
