I need help /g/ . It's the middle of the night and I want to surprise my girlfriend by going over to her house. I don't have any data connection but I do have GPS on my telephone. What app allows me to put in directions and navigate without wifi or data. Basically doing this offline ON my bicycle.
>>
Get a data connection you fucking poorfag
>>
>>55307480
That's fucking impossible right now, ballsack.
>>
>>55307474
Openstreetmap
Google maps can cache a area of you want
Either way you're going to need a data connection

Or do it the old fashioned way and get a map
>>
>>55307474
Open GPS on wifi
Put in address
Get directions

Why does it require a data connection? Right now I'm downloading the area (it's basically my entire country wtf) on google maps.
>>
>>55307523
This.

What I do since I don't opt for smartphones or any of that shit is lookup the place on google maps, look for main streets that take me in that direction, then look for sub streets that will take me to their house. Just write it down in the order you'd be moving along these streets in order to get there, and boom. Follow in reverse to get back.

HERE Maps
You have to download the map for your country beforehand, then you can just use it with GPS alone. I use it on bike rides all the time.
>>
Stop stalking people Jerome.
>>
>>55307562
It's rather far though. 55 kilometers on basically all sub roads
>>
Google.maps
Write down directions
???
Sex
>>
>>55307566
Does it use the same directions like Google Maps? Downloading now. Thank you for your suggestion.

>>55307567
no
>>
>>55307558
Because you need to download the maps fuckface
You can't install apps without a data connection
>>
>>55307618
Well I have wifi now, of course.

>biking 55km
Absolute madman

>>55307626
You said in the op you don't have a data connection
WiFi is a data connection
>>
>>55307665
I meant on the road. Sorry about that. Yeah 55. It'll take me about 3 hours I believe.
>>
>>55307610
I think it's the Bing map or something, but it's pretty much the same thing
>>
Take multiple screenshots of the route and follow that
>>
>>55307720
Would only lengthen my trip by so much..
>>
Did I forget to mention it's like 2 AM?
>>
Also remember to bring a banana
>>
>>55307752
What, why.
>>
>>55307684
It's not finding a bike route
>>
>>55307768
Well I don't know how fit you are but for a 55km bicycle ride through a route I've not ridden before I'd certainly bring a little something to eat. A water bottle too.
>>
>>55307768
To restore potassium, which prevents cramps
>>
>>55307832
>>55307836
I didn't realize it was for eating, wow. Thanks guys. Definitely bringing some food and water. HERE Maps is still stuck on finding a bike route though.
>>
>>55307848
It took a while. Ready to leave, just need to charge my phone.
