Some issues cannot be easily resolved through online tutorials or self help. So we made it easy to get in contact with the support team at Angus Oliver, developers of GPS 2 IP.
Do you need GPS NMEA location data for your computer or other device - maybe to use some mapping or navigation software? Each device running this app can send a unique identifier, so that if you have multiple devices you can determine which device is sending what messages. this app now can be configured to restart automatically after your iOS device restarts, so you'll always keep track of your position. Beware that this will decrease battery life - we recommend keeping it charging if possible. this app can also be configured to output data at a selectable frequency (for example once every minute). GPS 2 IP can run when the iPhone sleeps to support constant location reporting, but be aware that continued use of the GPS when running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. Apart from navigation software, other methods for connection include telnet or netcat, or many terminal programs. Alternatively, you can also push the NMEA data to any online server, using either TCP or UDP and process the information however you want. Until now, you couldn't get external access to the GPS inside your iPhone or iPad, but now with this app you can stream the information in realtime to solve your requirements. It is designed for enthusiasts, or more sophisticated navigation software that can use an external wireless GPS unit. If your device dies or you turn it off when it was running, this app now automatically resumes sending the location. Some navigation software such as MacEnc can read from an IP address natively. BEWARE - this app is *not* able to be used for the Apple turn-by-turn navigation app, or Google Maps, or most car navigation programs. The iPhone becomes a GPS server, and to get the information, you just connect to your iPhone using either wifi or Bluetooth LE. Different NMEA messages can be selected for transmission according to your requirements. If you aren't sure what NMEA is, please check the website before buying. Try it for free, and only buy this full-featured version if it does what you need! This is a rather special piece of software, and must be used in the right system.
