If I use my iPhone as a GPS, it consumes data... If I use my GPS unit, it's data free, yet they both do the same thing.
I'm looking at a cheaper plan that would use less data so I'm going thru each app and was just wondering why Google maps uses data and a GPS unit doesn't.
When I say GPS, it's a 8~10 year old device that I haven't used in a long time, but still works fine and requires no data plan.
I'm guessing it has to do with the directions being on device vs on Google's server.
