I don't use Data on my iPhone. Before I leave home, I save the Google map of the area I'm travelling in. Then I don't need internet to find my way around. When I search for Home, it has no problem taking me there. Shaking the dog food is a sure way of getting a roaming pup back. :) Gunther is so darned cute. Jon in rural BC, Canada
I live in New Mexico where cell service is often spotty so I use a fix that doesn't require the use of a cell phone as I'm traveling. Before I leave home or as I find free wifi, I download my route using Gmaps. Under my icon in the upper right corner of the phone screen, I choose "offline maps" and download hunks of route one section at a time about a quarter the size of New Mexico. It doesn't keep me updated about accidents, slow traffic, or road incidents. I've learned to be careful that Gmaps doesn't send me off on another road than what I chose.
