This article will give you an overview of how to use Gaia GPS on a tablet. Since the tablet has a much larger screen, the Gaia GPS user interface is slightly different than it is for a phone. When reading other articles in this Help Center, note that while the interface may look different between your tablet and the phone shown in the article, the functionality remains the same.
Please note: 'WiFi only' tablets do not have a built-in GPS and require an external GPS unit to track location when not connected to the internet.
