Very true, but you do need cell or Wi-Fi coverage if you need to download maps, 
etc.  What about integrating AIS or other apps like Windy, NOAA weather, etc.

No. You don’t need to activate the cell plan. The GPS antenna is shared with 
the cell antenna in the iPad.

Hi,

I would like to use an ipad mini 2 with the navionics app to plan and use for 
nav purposes on my boat, this will back up my chart plotter and paper charts.

 

I read that to use the Navionics app on the water to purchase an ipad that has 
cellular capability.

 

So I'm looking at Best buy and see ipads with 4G AT&T, Verizon, etc... 

 

So my Question is; Does it matter what provider is noted because I'm only using 
the cellular for the Navionics app?

 

Thanks for any help.

 

Cheers,

 

Tom
