Hello ,
I recently went to some remote areas of Western Australia. My phone is an old 4S running 9.3.5
In these remote areas I either had no iphone mobile reception, or reception from a different carrier (to what I had) so all
I could get was SOS capability in those areas.
The iphone GPS did not work (location services). I had iphone apps preloaded for the trip, but because the GPS did not work I could not use them. Question is, has this been fixed for later iphones, or do you always need mobile reception to get the GPS to work?
Dissapointingly, I had to fall back to my old windows phone where the GPS worked. The apps I had preloaded for the iphone
and windows phone had full maps already downloaded (as they were map apps) for the area I was in.
Thanks in advance. Stephen
