Gps For Kids Phone

Nice product. I like that you can charge your phone while using it as a GPS.

Great for traveling especially when using your phone as a GPS all day.

It’s great to be hands free when I drive and be able to see my phone’s GPS.

I use it to charge my phone and gps - I love that there is a ridge to grab to easily remove.

I bought this unit about 3 weeks ago. I hate using my phone as a GPS on trips and I had an older Garmin that I broke the port on so I couldn't update the maps anymore. I'm really impressed with the unit and would recommend it without hesitation. The only thing I didn't like compared to my old Garmin...is that my old Garmin was a beefier material and seemed a little more heavy duty. That said...if you take care of it properly....that shouldn't be an issue at all.

Good features and portable to take in vehicles without GPS. Better than phone GPS, especially for long trips. Lifetime map updates is a plus. Two recommendations: 1...Get a micro SD card that it can support (max 32 GB) so maps have room to expand into for storage. 2...Set a calendar reminder for connecting your device to your computer occasionally for map and other updates with Garmin Express software (I have mine set to remind every 3 months)

You won't have to fumble around with your phone while driving anymore. Not just for GPS app, also functional for regular phone use.

Many times I travel to locations not served by cell towers -- thus my phone is no longer capable of GPS geotagging. Satellite service is still available so this device works flawlessly. The EOS R works very well with GP-E2 with a minor exception - the direction is not recorded in the EXIF (no big deal, all I want is location!) The "Map Utility" may be hard to download since the website does not yet support the very latest versions of Mac OS -- just over-ride the OS version to the previous (supported) version! The GPS log function works as advertised, just be aware that the output is in Google Maps format Lightroom uses the more common GPX format but there are web based converters. With these logs, you might be able to geotag your phone pictures as well in non-Canon software. If you want GPS location info, this is far better than trying to cut from phone images and paste into Canon images.

Coming from a Nuvi 2460 this GPS does so much more. It's like night and day. There are a couple of things that confuse me and at this point being I just bought it and used it for one out of state trip so far i'm not sure if it's a user issue or the way this unit is supposed to operate. I noticed a couple of the routes it directed me to go were out of the way compared to my cell phone app that I would normally use and the concerned me. The other thing I have yet to figure out is listening to music and getting the directions through my cars audio system. Usually I can have Spotify going and my cell phone GPS app will interrupt the music with directions when necessary and then the music will continue. So far I haven't had that happen. I thought it operates both like my cell phone app does. I thought I can pair the Garmin with my vehicle and not have to depend on a cell phone to do it. In any event I hope it's something that I haven't figured out yet because if it's the way it is supposed to operate it will lessen my likability somewhat.

purchased to use on my goldwing. this is an incredible gps that for me doubles as control for entertainment. in addition to easy updates the bluetooth capability really sets this unit apart from others. system connects to and controls my phone. shares phone calls and other streaming media to my BT headsets in both mine and the passenger helmets. the including wiring and mount is rock solid and easy to install. no issues riding in weather. this unit is not cheap and i was very hesitant to purchase. That all disappeared the first time i took it on a ride. expectations were far exceeded and there are tons of features not really described or reviewed.
