Group: Forum Members Posts: 3, Visits: 10	Hello, Being totally inexperienced with Apple, I'm looking for some user feedback regarding the recently release WiFi version of iPad (regular version, not the mini, air or pro) combined with the GARMIN GPS GLO 2 whilst using Skydemon in flight. Currently a happy Android user but my current tablet is getting a bit outdated and some aviation apps are not Android compatible (like Jeppesen which I use frequently). Hence the decision to look into iPad. At our company, we use the 4G iPads which include GPS. But the additional cost for a basic GPS (iPad LTE) is absurd. And I'm not able to (constantly) use the company iPad for personal flights. Is anyone using the WiFi only iPad combined with a GARMIN GPS (or any other brand)? Feedback using Skydemon (and general usage) is appreciated! Including 32GB vs 128GB. I would mainly use it for VFR SEP/MEP flights. Thanks a lot in advance!

Thanks a lot in advance! hi have tried garmin glo with a wi fi only i pad mini 4 it connects ok on the ground but was intermitant in the air. also same applied to a garmin gdl 90 3d which i thought was most odd because connection to a cellular i pad mini 4 was fine the connection is blue tooth in both cases so why it should be problem who knows. have bought sky eco 2 and that connects to both types of i pad just fine well they did until ios 14 came along 😢 but im sure sd will soon sort it
