Turn On Gps Droid X
Does gps use data on droid x?
on verizon using droid x when turning on gps does it use my data because right now I am on a limited plan
GPS _per se_ does not use any of your data plan (it’s basically a really complicated radio receiver). There are after all at least a hundred standalone GPS units on the market that work just fine without any sort of phone or internet ability.
However, the real answer is: It depends on what mapping program you use.
Google Maps on your phone, for example, is constantly downloading map data from the net… so it does use data.
However, the GPS program I use on my phone installs all of its maps to the phone’s MicroSD card. It never talks to the net.
If you’re not sure which you have, there’s an easy way to check. Turn off the “phone” part so you can’t make calls, then see if the GPS works and shows maps.
