The iPad is offered in a variety of memory capacities and each comes with one 

of two connectivity options; Wi-Fi or Wi-Fi + 3G/4G.  It is important to know which 
connectivity option you have before using Garmin Pilot for navigation.  There are also a 
few things to know about the iPad’s basic features and settings that will enhance your 
Garmin Pilot experience on the iPad.  These features are not hidden, but they may not 
be immediately apparent to the novice iPad user.  To get completely familiar with the 
iPad, it is recommended that you access the iPad User Guide.

Global Positioning System (GPS) receiving capability is optional on the iPad.  Garmin 

Pilot can be used without GPS for flight planning, but the navigation features will be 
inoperative.  Of the two connectivity options for the iPad, only the iPad with Wi-Fi + 
cellular has an internal GPS receiver.  If you have the Wi-Fi-only version of the iPad, 
a Garmin GLO™ portable GPS and GLONASS receiver, or a Garmin GDL 39 portable 
GPS and ADS-B receiver will be required in order to take advantage of the navigation 
features in Garmin Pilot.  Alternative or third-party GPS sources known to work with 
Garmin Pilot are:  Bad Elf, Dual Electronics XGPS150 Universal Bluetooth GPS, and 
GNS 5870 MFI Bluetooth GPS receiver.  Other iPad-compatible portable GPS sources 
may also work with Garmin Pilot.
