    Now that this video will make it popular, that phone will suddenly jump to a price point much higher than $300.

    That said, I also use a beater old phone for nav purposes. It was “free” to me because I already had it, and my cell carrier dropped network band support for some of the bands it uses so it’s not terribly useful as a phone anymore. Whatevs.

    I use AplineQuest for off road mapping, doing BDR’s and such. It’s a one-time fee to purchase the full version, unlike Gaia which is (bleck) yet another fucking subscription. Miss me with that shit. What it does is not worth $40 a year to me. AplineQuest can display waypoints, map layers, and routes (.gpx tracks) but does not support turn-by-turn navigation. It’s fine for me, you just check and make sure you’re still on the line on the screen every once in a while. You can also use it for hiking (which is probably what it’s actually for…) and I do that also.
