IPad internal GPS lock.

i'm a Foreflight guy, looking at options that are more device-friendly. To that end, I downloaded iFly (always liked the dedicated units), FlyQ and eKneeboard

All of them work except iFly, it doesn't get a GPS lock with my iPad internal. IPad Mini 2, ATT Cellular. Help?

Hi,

Please make sure your Location Sevices are setup to allow iFly to see your position. On your iPad goto Settings, Privacy, Location Services, and see what setting you have for iFly GPS.

You should have been prompted for this the first time you ran the app, but sometimes iPad seems to skip that question.

Hope this helps,
Walter

Yes, I have been using iFly with the iPad internal GPS with no problems. I have been using iFly for about 18 mos. Every update has more features and improvements. This thing just gets better and better.
