What is a good GPS app for iPad?

I just got a new 3G iPad and am searching for a good GPS app that I can use without a data connection. I really don't want to spend mega money just to try out different apps. Thanks!

I bought CoPilot Live HD for my iPad 3GS about 2 weeks ago. Overall, I would consider this to be a very good navigation app. I've found some quirks with it but I would give it 4 of 5 stars.
This app works either standalone or with a WiFi or 3G mobile connection (via AT&T) but I have had no reason to use the 3G connection as yet. It is only really needed for CoPilot's "Live" (that is, real-time info) feature. We have been traveling around Alaska for the past month and have given CoPilot a very thorough workout. Among the quirks we've encountered are:
* Inability to retain/restore app data when doing a reinstall.
* Difficulties creating and updating user-entered points of interest.
* Difficulties using the "Save Current Location" feature.
* Difficulties using the "Enter Location By Coordinates" feature.
* Some features of CoPilot not available in iPad and iPhone version.
None of these was a deal-breaker by any means. I would definitely recommend this app to anyone who travels a lot and needs a reliable navigation aid.

    What is a good gps app for ipad2?

    Good for what?  That would depend on what you want to use it for.  Also, it would depend on whether you have a 3G unit.  Without 3G to stream maps, the GPS would be mostly worthless for on-the-move navigation.
    Even with 3G, it would be real easy to blow right past the 256MB plan and even the 2GB plan while out and about.

  • What is a good barometer app for iPad Air 2

    Am after a Barometer App for the iPad Air 2 that can record, save and export barometric pressure so that I can go back at review the history later. Most apps that I have found so far cannot save the barometric pressure for a specific period of time so that I can go back and review the numbers.

    Consider buying an app. Pages by Apple is the best writing and editing app I've ever seen for iPad. It will let you do everything you said.

  • What is the Best Offline gps app for ipad 2 ( wifi ) ?

    Hi
    i just want to know what is the best offline gps app for ipad 2 wifi only ?
    specially for ( Malaysia and UAE )  ? and thanks

    I used my wifi only pad in Ireland and uk, and as pointed out, the wifi has no gps.
    I bought a 'bad elf' external receiver.  Worked fine, is small, and idiot proof.
    Then you need a map set.  There are a lot of choices, I ended up using' offmaps', and bought the 'unlimited,  and it was fine.   No point to point directions, but you can find where you are trying to go and the maps themselves were accurate and up to date.   Note, that may vary as you get around the world.
    The elf cost 100, and the unlimited maps was, I think, $5.00.  
    The option was to simply buy a local garmin or Tom Tom when you get there.   As a gizmo guy, I went the elf approach.
    The only downside of the elf is that it is so small, it is easy to lose it in a pocket or backpack.

  • What is the best GPS app for an iPhone 4s?

    What is the best GPS app for an iPhone 4s?

    There are several things to consider.  For instance many GPS apps download maps on the fly.  If you don't have an unlimited cellular data plan this can use a lot of your data allotment.  Other apps like Tom Tom and CoPilot Live save all the maps on the device.  The maps will take up a lot of memory on your iPhone.  I use CoPilot Live Premium and the maps take up about 2GB of memory. 
    Then there is a matter of cost.  Most apps that download maps on the fly are free or a very low cost.  The ones that store the maps on the iPhone generally cost more.
    I use Copilot Live Premium HD US because it gives me all the features I need for a relatively low cost, about $20 USD.

    What is a good security app for iphone5s?

    Since Apple is removing the few that managed to get on to the iTunes App Store, it now appears none.
    Why do you think you need one?
    Only jailbroken iPhone have security problems to worry about, so if your iPhone is not jailbroken one is not needed.

  • GPS apps for iPad ?...

    hi guys
    can anyone tell me if it is possible to use apps - such as Navigon's GPS app for iPhone.. - with the iPad ? it would make for a GREAT touchscreen size for the car the only thing i'm kind of let down by my iPhone 3GS...
    could i perhaps connect them together via Bluetooth for that effect ?
    thanks !

    hi guys !
    & thanks ! i was kind of hoping it would & now i know it's down to Navigon to ''sort it out'', i'm sure it's only a matter of time before it's done so...another expense lurks in the horizon : a 3G iPad to use as a GPS !! plus whatever else it does, eh, eh, eh....
    wait a minute, if it's 3G does it mean i can also use it as a phone of sorts ? or only through Skype & such ? give it the capability to stream music - á la iPhone.. - & that would make it a wonderful car gadget...
    once again thanks a lot for the input & have a great week-end !

  • What is a good wireless speaker for ipads

    What is a good, moderate priced wireless speaker for the ipad2?

    The speaker I have—and love—isn't moderately priced. It's the Bose Soundlink Wireless Mobile (Bluetooth) speaker:
    http://store.apple.com/us_edu_383719/product/H6806VC/A/bose-soundlink-wireless-m obile-speaker?
    I love the sound quality, the form factor, the ease of use—everything about it. It's about $300 if you forgo the fancy covers.
    If I were going to buy another speaker that really is moderately priced, the one I'd get is the Soundfreaq Sound Kick SFQ-04, and it's about $100. Here's a link to the review at iLounge, which is the place to go to read reviews about virtually every portable speaker on the market:
    http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/reviews/entry/soundfreaq-sound-kick-sfq-04/
    Having a wireless speaker with my iPad 2 and all my music on iCloud is bliss. Life is much simpler and I am more productive.

  • What is the best IE app for ipad to use ?

    What is the best IE app to use for ipad ?

    "IE" app? Can you explain what you mean? Internet Explorer is a web browser for the Windows operating system. The built in web browser on your iPad is Safari. If you don't like that, there are lots of others in the App Store. Popular ones include Chrome, iCab Mobile and Dolphin.

  • Anyone find a good email app for ipad yet?

    The provided email application for ipad is really bad for many things and I need one that doesnt take several actions to do what takes a single action on other systems (like my phone and my computer and my Audrey Ergo)
    Problems:
    - To use multiple accounts you need to go through like 5 taps to see email in each - this is the straw for me BTW
    - Cant seem to find how to change the behavior on deletion. When 'delete' from the ipad i just want it to be "deleted from the ipad". Take NO action on the server.
    - Email notification/'push'/check is non-deterministic and too infrequent. I want to have it done when I want it to have it done. Like "every 5 minutes". Not "sometime near the frequency of every 15 minutes - but we cant be certain"
    - I want to have the frequency different for different accounts.
    Any suggestions on an email application that rivals the competition in the basic functionality (those above at least)?
    Thanks

    I also am looking for a better email client. I need the ability to use folders and have email go directly to these folders when checking email. Just sending all email to only one inbox folder is just to confusing. I like the ability to search for email but this feature only helps to a degree. An example would be... I like all my email from tennis friends on my team to go to a separate email folder. I can do this in Microsoft Outlook and this feature makes it a lot easier to view things. Right now the email client is like a physical filling cabnet that has only one folder. The email client does try to group related emails together that I don't think works very well. So far not all email from one person are being grouped together. Some are but not all so I don't know what criteria it is using to determine what is grouped together. To work better I would like every piece of email from the same person to be grouped together. But then again wouldn't it be easer to just have a separate folder for each person or group of people. The reason for this is at a glance there are so many emails in my inbox that I sometimes miss an email. Using folders would allow me to check and scan my inbox a lot easier when there are only maybe a dozen email to view.
    Anyone else would like to see this feature?

    If you use a navigation app that has "on-boards" maps (maps included with the app) and you leave data roaming turned off, there won't be any internet charge.

  • What is a good download speed for IPad?

    I am curious because I am reading about wifi issues and I'm using a Fios Actiontec router with bars constantly going from three to one bar.
    So far I have been getting around 10 mpbs download. Is that decent? (Using Speedtest.net Ipad app)

    I just put the Speedtest app back on my iPad (also Verizon Actiontec router) out of curiosity.
    Ran 4 times: all download times between 20.07 and 22.45 Mbps; upload from 12.53 to 15.22 Mbps.
    Not bragging but for information for the other poster who also said they were using Verizon. (I assume also Fios service, not DSL.)
