GPS

If I order the iPad Pro gen 3 with cellular/GPS will I be able to use the unit to run Google Maps or Google Earth while driving in my car, without having to use the cellular. (I.e. Is there a real GPS chip in the iPad that works with those two apps without having to have cellular data being fed to it ?

iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi, Cell

Hello,


iPad’s GPS is a positioning system which helps iPad view where it is on a map. Map applications such as Apple Maps do not store map data locally on device so iPad would need a data connection to view maps.
