    What is the best GPS App? I was told that it may be better to have a tablet dedicated for GPS and use a great app for it. Do you guys think that will be better than a good GPS, and if so what is the best app?

    Thanks for the help!

    That looks AWESOME! But, I already have android tablets and looking for an app for it, even if I have to pay for it. I don't want to have to buy another tablet, if that makes sense.

    This thing looks phenominal! Is it worth the $150 for an app, though?

    Yes, yes it is. Been using it for about 2 years. Not perfect but after you get use to it, you'll think so too.

    Do you only use this or also a GPS? the more i'm reading about this app, it looks great.

    i've been using copilot 3 years now. it's my only driver. works perfect for me. just make you sure have the parameters set correctly.

    it's never steered me wrong. as long as i listen to it instead of it listening to me.

    you're always buying tablets. but i'm NOT buying replacement units. one time only license.
