*Although you do not need a SIM Card installed or cellular coverage to utilise the GPS tracking functions on iPad for the app, a 3G-enabled iPad (as opposed to a WiFi only iPad) is necessary to discover and track your location. A WiFi-only iPad does not contain the in-built GPS that a 3G iPad does, however external Bluetooth GPS receivers can be purchased for use with a WiFi-only iPad.
Battery Use Disclaimer: “Continued use of GPS tracking can dramatically decrease battery life.”
Latest reviews of NZ RoadAtlas | New Zealand Road Atlas with Offline GPS Navigation app for iPhone and iPad
This App is useful, but its not as useful as I thought. The Map is static, and not very detailed. I thought it is a dynamic map with a larger amount of Information, my mistake!
cant purchase add-on, NZ South Island Topo!!
This is practically useless. Not at all what I wanted. It wont zoom in to see cross streets in cities like auckland much less smaller cities like hamilton. Completely pointless. What a waste.
