Hi All,
I have an iPad Air 2 that doesn’t have GPS, that I know, but has anyone tried using there iPone as hotspot connected to their iPad to get GPS and using the iPad connected to the controller?
Thanks in advance. AndyD
Actually, tethering your iPad via a hotspot to your iPhone does indeed allow you to use GPS on your iPad. It doesn't update as frequently as having a GPS chip would, but if you're not in a moving car or something like that it should be fine. I believe the way it works is that the iPad uses Wifi location-sensing, as it does when, for example, it's connected to your home network. But since your Wifi is coming from your phone, it assumes you are wherever your phone is.
