Just try it....it's free......
Greenalp definitely requires a cell connection OR internet availability. I cannot explain what your wife is seeing, but I can say with 100% cofidence that a cellular or internet connection is required for an up to the minute position.

I agree, and that is what I stated in one of my earlier posts (#17) about the app. I'm not trying to promote this app....wish I had never mentioned it so I could continue to use it in anonymity.... I just wanted to offer the OP another option for his original inquiry.

I think this discussion has gotten garbled somewhere.

I've learned a lot about choices that I did not know exist and I appreciate the posts. I am 90% done and 90% to go on my RV6A build and I am just trying learn about what folks are using.
