OnX ???

[SDMF]

For anyone using OnX:

1. Can you use Apple CarPlay/Android-Auto and mirror it onto an in-dash nav screen?
2. Does OnX "keep up" @ highway speeds running live without downloading maps and running off-line?

I asked that very question to OnX support.

Much appreciated. @ 11yrs old, I'm getting a few electrical gremlins in my pickup. One of them is that the lights on the radio no longer work, so, I was considering a new head-unit w/nav, looks like whether I do that or not, I'm still gonna have the Nuvi stuck to the windshield for a while.

SDMF, does the onx chip work in your nuvi? I asked onx and they could not guarantee that it would work.

Me too. Has quite a vocabulary, for a sixth-grader.

Take your radio out and take it to Julies radio ranch. She will fix it for about 75.00. That what she charged me a few yrs ago.

Did you put the OnX chip/SD card in your radio/navigation reader and it worked?

Touche'!!

SDMF - to answer question #2, yes it keeps up. I've never had lag in "live" mode while driving at speed.

Just have the basic downloaded get the electronic posting but no plots. Sucks, shows you moving but the screen doesn't scroll with you as you move. Does it with the paid chip ?
G&F download doesn't scroll either. Can only get one or the other on screen at a time, Either electronic or plots map only, unless I'm missing something ( which maybe entirely possible)

Chips are a thing of the past dont think they even make them any more. You should be able to turn both the layers on at the same time in the layer settings. No it will not scroll with you

Is there a way to get this GPS to connect to my navigation in my pickup. 2013 Ford F150

Thanks, I'll have to try it again to add both layers but couldn't get it to happen yesterday. The non- scroll sucks.

Bought an iPad two years ago just for running maps in my pickup while hunting. OnX will keep up while driving but iPad must be in vertical position. It’s like having a lake map on your screen in your boat only it’s for hunting, I really like it

That's what I was hoping to accomplish with an in-dash nav unit.

So you have internet service to your ipad?

I have an old Gen 2 ipad. I wonder if I could screen share from my iphone to the ipad? Not sure if the processor is good enough on the old ipad. Dont really want to buy more data.

Should be able to download the maps and run it off-line I'd think. GPS is GPS, you don't need a data plan for the GPS to work.

Ya, that would probably work. Hadn't thought of that. For the most part a guy knows the relative area you will be hunting in. Just download big blocks of the state. Might have to give it a whirl. Now what kind of affordable mounts do they make for hands free ipad use? I'm sure there is a whole bunch of chinese junk on amazon related to that.

Which is the other reason for my original question. Apple CarPlay/Android Car on an in-dash nav screen would make life SO MUCH simpler.
