  • Just plug it into your iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad to add a high-performance, 66-channel MTK GPS Receiver.
  • "Made for iPod" certified, compatible with ALL location-based iOS applications. No need to "jailbreak" your iOS device!
  • Micro-USB port and included USB cable allow charging or iTunes synchronization during use. You can use your existing USB chargers.
  • Perfect for aviation, hiking, running, star-gazing, geocaching, and many more location-based activities. Works great with popular apps like MotionX GPS, RunKeeper, Geocaching, Fore Flight, Zagat TO GO, Star Walk, and many, many more.
  • Small, portable, and rugged. Compatible with most protective cases, vehicle mounts, and arm bands - plugs securely into 30-pin dock connector. Detachable lanyard included for safe-keeping.

The Bad Elf GPS receiver plugs into the 30-pin dock connector on the iPod touch, iPhone, iPad and iPad2, providing high performance GPS data to ALL location-based iOS applications in the App Store. This Apple-approved accessory allows owners of iOS devices without an integrated GPS receiver (original iPhone, all iPod touch devices, the iPad Wi-Fi) to use mapping, navigation, geocaching, golf range-finding, boating, flying, driving and many other location-based apps.

This is the best-selling Apple-authorized GPS accessories on the market that works with the iPad Wi-Fi today!

Unlike most GPS cradles and car kits, this accessory is compatible with the form-factor of all past/current/future iOS devices, and allows you to continue using your favorite case as long as it does not block the 30-pin dock connector.

See the Bad Elf website for a list of apps that have good "offline" support and do not require a continuous Internet connection to work.

This accessory can use the Assisted GPS data provided by iOS when a network connection is available - but does not require it. The MTK chipset is known for its fast GPS lock times with or without this data.
