h Group: Forum Members Posts: 1, Visits: 23	I have an external Bluetooth GPS (Dual XGPS 150) that I hook up to my iPad mini via BT. As I understand IOS, the external GPS source will be used (take precedence) if present, and hence IOS location services will rely on my external GPS. Hence when I activate Skydemon I choose 'Location Services' (not GDL 90) But how do I tell if is actually the external GPS that is in use, and not the iPad internal GPS ?? I realise this is perhaps more a question for Apple and the IOS crowd - but I have been unable to find any good explanations, and hope some of you guys have found some info Blue skies :-) If it matters: - GPS: Dual XGPS 150 - Tablet: iPad Mini 5 (WIFI + Cell - hence with internal GPS) - Skydemon: Version 3.16.9
