Quite simply, it depends on the app you install, some like Google Maps & Navigation need a connection, others store the maps in your device's memory. There's always new appearing so best is to google and find out which is best for you.

There are quite a few suggestions about "apps" for mobile phones in this thread:-

And I think the various inputs show which software works OK when offline.

I hope it is of some use.

The Note 10.1 has a GPS receiver built-in.
Comes with Google or try NavFree.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
