GPS navigators are gaining more and more popularity every day. The more people get to know them and begin to use them, the more areas for their application open up. But, unfortunately, not everyone can afford to purchase this miracle assistant, despite the fact that using it saves time and money. Owners of phones with the ability to install a GPS navigator can solve this problem.
Instructions
Step 1
So, installing a navigator in a phone means a phone with a built-in GPS receiver and a special Garmin Mobile XT program. If your phone does not support GPS, but does support Bluetooth, then you need to purchase a small Bluetooth GPS module. Believe me, it will cost you several times less than buying a GPS navigator.
Step 2
From the official Garmin website, you need to download the latest version of the program and, using a convenient data transfer interface, download the installation file to your phone, and then install the program. You can also download the program by sending SMS (the size of the installation file is about 100 kb). It is worth paying attention to the fact that this software is not supported by all phone models, therefore, before purchasing a GPS module, be sure to make sure that the program will run on your mobile phone. The mobile navigator can be installed on almost all executive-class phones and smartphones from leading manufacturers.
Step 3
After installing the program, a Bluetooth connection will be established between your phone and the GPS receiver, after which your location on the ground will be determined and you can start planning the route.
In theory, the database should be regularly updated, but in reality, most changes on the road are not reflected in real time. Therefore, do not be surprised if, turning on the navigator's pointer, you suddenly find the road closed for repairs.
