WEST COVINA, Calif., Dec. 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Everyone hates getting lost, and sure there are plenty of good navigation apps for smartphones and tablets out there, but what if you are in an area with poor cell service or no Internet connection? Fortunately, we now have the option to install offline GPS apps. When using a third party navigation app with onboard maps, the E FUN Nextbook 7 and Nextbook 8 Android tablet's built-in GPS module will locate your position and provide navigation without the need for cellular service or an Internet connection*. In other words, you never have to get lost again.
The first step to using your tablet as an offline navigation tool is to download one of several offline GPS navigation apps from Google Play. When choosing an offline navigation app, be sure to check the reviews, preferably from people in your area as map quality can vary. Many of the popular apps are free to download and offer in-app purchases depending on the features you want to install.
After installation is complete simply connect your tablet to a car mount, open the app and you're ready to navigate without fear of connection loss. The Nextbook 7 and 8 also feature large (7" & 7.85") high-resolution capacitive displays, making it much easier to view maps compared to smaller smartphone screens and even standalone GPS systems. These bigger screens are also perfect for larger cars such as SUVs and minivans.
The Nextbook 7 and Nextbook 8 Android tablets are available now at Walmart.com.
*Navigation software not provided with tablet; Must download third party navigation app with onboard maps
