If you set up a personal hotspot, you are enabling Wi-Fi, not BT. Normally,
you won't get location data, as this is not shared over Wi-Fi. Unless there
is a special app that you would run on both sides.

If you set up a Personal Hotspot with your iPhone and bluetooth that to your
non-GPS enabled iPad, will it share location data?  It appears possible from
what I have read.  Dave

Jim - you can add an external GPS receiver like the Bad Elf via Bluetooth;
then you'll have the functionality you need without having to buy a
cell-enabled iPad.  I've got one, and it works great.

I should have qualified the question, we downloaded Navionics, our I pad
does not have GPS, therefore, no ship icon!   Will it appear on this app, if
we purchase this I pad with GPS, but without a phone plan!

iPad with cellular, doesn't need a phone subscription for the GPS to work.
