Hi guys, I have an android device I want to use. It does not have built in gps or data. I am curious if anyone knows of a bluetooth gps receiver and then I can just use my phone as a hotspot?

Strange, most androids I know have both, which one is it ?
 
ipad air but it doesnt have a sim card so no gps.

Hi Guys I have an Android Device,

FYI an IPad isn’t an Android device mate it’s an IOS device.

You can buy Bluetooth units but TBH I would just go and buy an Android Tablet with GPS built in, less to carry round

I get ya, but I have 4 tablets and rather not buy another.

"Apple chose not to include a GPS in the wifi only models. ... The GPS system in iPads and iPhones relies upon the cellular connection. It uses the towers to pinpoint the location. If you get a non-cellular model of the iPad Air, then you can only get location from wifi. "
 
Cause you came on here asking for Android help on an IOS device.

I get it bud, I made a mistake, I need it for both IOS and android. Thats My bad. I can't seem to find something that works on both and those things are expesive and what if my devices dont suppport.. Trying not to buy something that won't work on my devices. I coudl finanace something through verzion but you end up paying so much for something, ya know?
