I did not have to configure anything for that to work. Would it be possible for SkyDemon to show that it is using the GLO, but not necessarily the battery status?

Group: Forum Members Posts: 152, Visits: 352	How can I see that SkyDemon uses Garmin GLO instead of Ipad internal GPS? Furthermore do anyone know if the Ipad also uses Glonass and then should be as precise as Garmin GLO? /Martin Edited 3/17/2016 9:06:26 AM by Martin Bech
