I’ve got a 2017GS minus the sat nav.
So far I’ve been using my iPhone but I’ve since heard that it’s not a great idea.
I’m thinking of using one of my old android phones instead.
My thinking is I use my iPhone sim card in the android phone to download the app. Then take out the sim card and put it back in my iPhone.
Then use the android to run the app as it works offline. I’m hoping the phone will connect to the bike by the cable rather than wireless.
Is this possible? Can I run the app and connect to the bike without a SIM card?
Or am I trying to be a cheapskate and would I be better buying either a bmw sat nav or a third party one?
The thing is I like the app as it is.
