iPhone is not an option since maps app only works where there is a signal. I know that an iPhone can run Gaia maps but the screen is too small.
I've done some research already. I know the iPad has to be cellular enabled with the internal GPS to use where there is no cell signal. Don't want to spend big bucks on an iPad just for Gaia maps. Also don't want a huge screen since I'll use it in the UTV.
An older/refurb iPad is ok since it will only be used for Gaia maps. Suggestions?
It works the same whether its iPhone or iPad.
You can download "sections" for offline use, just like most other options. And to be honest, it works better in offline mode than online when signal gets iffy.
I only use Gaia for off road adventures. I find google or apple are better for me for on road directions.
