Navigon lets you download the maps -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 14, 2015 07:44 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: iPhone 6S?
I've always wondered if the GPS drain was due to getting the coordinates all the time or the constant downloading of data over the cellular internet connection. I guess if there is a GPS app with all the maps included (would be quite large) that would be a good test. I think Navigon was one that had the maps baked into the app. CB On 9/14/15 10:07 AM, Brent Harding wrote: > I agree.
