    You have a comprehension failure.
    The FREE stuff snowwy was talking about, that you find on the more expensive units, is stuff like Pilot Flying J app, T/A Petro app, Trucker Path app, etc. All of those are free and work hand-in-hand with the CoPliot Truck App.
     
    snowwy Thanks this.

    weatherbug radar app, Mydattruckstops. For any truckstop, wash, rest area, walmarts. And the truckerpath app for scale location and status. Pretty much covered all my needs.

    I have Scalebuddy and Trucker Path. Scale buddy shows days without being updated. You might be the only one sending in updates.

    I have the RM TND Tablet for my main GPS. Backup to that is my older RM TMD 520. Backup if those two fail would be CoPilot. But I always have Copilot visible for it's excellent traffic bar.

    PS the TND Tablet only has 1 gig of RAM so it sucks as a tablet. I only keep truck related apps on it otherwise it will freeze up just like any overloaded cellphone you may have. I hope the next TND Table will come out with at LEAST 4 gig of RAM.

    One thing is for sure. After using an 8" screen I would never go back to a 5".

    When you load your apps, do you load them to external Micro SD Slot? You can run a 64gb in it. Sounds like you are app heavy on the internal storage.

    I have a 64G card in there and it's shows empty. I don't see how to make a choice to install an app internal or external. Or move them to external. So I had to delete all but necessary apps.

    Yeah i think the internal space is 2gig

    Should we move this to your thread?
