GPS 2 IP App Reviews

Performs exactly as described. This application does what I've been searching for; it serves up GPS data in various formats. Currently, I use the data with a few applications at work that don't require live data. The only feature I'd like to see added is an option for the data be served up while running in the background. Other than that, maybe a settings button rather than the info icon to make it a little bit more intuitive. Keep up the good work!

TAIP giving an error, no reply from developer for help. When using TAIP, I am getting an error. There is not mention in the documentation about this error and the developer has not returned my email.

Fantastic. Does what it promises, subject to iOS and hardware limitations. No complaints.

What a rip-off.. I don’t mind paying for an App as soon as it works. Move on don’t spend your time and/or money, the developers have its website set up to not accept messages. :(

Fantastic Support. Had a small issue getting grlevelx software to work with it due to the picky nature in which grlevelx reads NMEA sentences. Within a day of contacting the author he has a fix and has submitted it for approval. Author gets 5 stars because of his fantastic communication and support. Highly recommended app. Update: New version updated. Works perfectly with Grlevelx software.

Awesome way to get NMEA GPS on portable Linux setups!. Using this to get GPS data to my Ubuntu server setup for kismet during prototyping. The lite version didn’t work but I took the leap and it was well worth it. Works perfectly with my IPhone 16 Pro Max, even in background mode. Exactly what I needed!! Keep up the great work!

Works with OpenCPN!. Works with OpenCPN, had to use AI to help me get it going, so far working good.

Doesnt work. Does not work, no documentation, emails go unanswered, support website blows up on smtp errors.

Doesnt work. Connected iPhone via Bluetooth to Ubuntu and windows. But not nmea messages are sent. Screen says "Bluetooth connections 0". Wasted $7

Trial version too short!. The trial version only gave about two seconds to test the app before showing the disabled message. Nowhere near enough time to see if it works in my application. Oh well, I’ll look elsewhere.

Sockets work with Python!. Simple interface and broadcasts gps/heading data reliably. Tried the free version first to prototype, then committed to the full version. Setup - iPhone 11 with iOS 15.7.1 and hotspot wifi - Dell XPS Laptop - Python 3.8 (socket, pynmseagps) Docs on their website are useful! Only downside is the tutorial links are broken.

Worthless. Doesn't do what it says. No way to trial it so I just wasted $7. Was a gamble but here is a warning for future lookers, look elsewhere.

Can be improved. It is a great idea. the timestamp provided on the NMEA messages must be the time provided by the GPS and not the iphone time! and the timestamp must be provided with milliseconds or less if possible.

Great. Use it with pc, droid and love it!

Great app - buy it. I am using Rose Point Coastal Explorer v4 on my boat to augment a Garmin Nav system. I can pull GPS data from the Garmin system, but I wanted to have a backup source. Along came GPS 2 IP, where I can use my iPhone as that GPS source. I’m running Win 10 on a parallels VM on my Mac, and I installed HW VSP3 to create a virtual port on that OS. Once the port is created, it appears on CE4 as a new NMEA 0183 serial device. Just click it, and the connection is made. Not just a great product though. I tried to share the app, with my full-version purchase, on my wife’s iPhone. The app shared, but it stayed in the demo mode. I wrote to Angus, and he is working this issue for me. Angus replied quickly, and he was able to explain why this happened. A fix is in work, and I am very happy with all of these results.

Not working. Many times tried to connect from IPhone to Ipad but can not recognize the port. Is that really working?

Works great with PolarCom!. Most navigation apps use iPhone as a repeater/receiver. With this I can now stream NMEA data from the iPhone to other apps, works great! My cell provider assigns private IP addresses, was initially having trouble connecting. Tech Support was fantastic, taking a lot of time to help not only from their side but also interfacing to the product I was trying to connect to (PolarCom / PolarView). Got it all connected and works great! Highly recommended.

Great tool. Works perfectly! Thanks.

Works great!. It took me about 5 minutes to configure and that was only because I didn't configure the port settings correctly myself. Once I did it worked awesome!

Ok app. Works for me. Like all gps apps though you gotta mess with it awhile to get it.

Works well with MacENC. Lets me use my iPhone GPS as the GPS for MacENC. Even works in the background. There are a few minor glitches with the NMEA produced. The UTC time is in local instead of GMT and Course is -1 when not available. None of these cause any notable problems. Highly recommended!

Works well with INavX!. I frequently recommend this app for INavX users who have INavX on a Wi-Fi only iPad. It works great in my experience.

Fantastic app!. Does exactly what I need reporting gps, heading, roll and pitch. Great documentation. Easily connects to Python for scripting.

Great App. Very useful

Super!. Very handy. Can we also have BT push?

Does what it says. Upgraded to the current version and functionality was limited to trial version. Developer resolved the issue with email support.

Didn't work for me. Poor interface.. Didn't work for me. Poor interface. (Update) thanks for your reply but it’s three years too late.

Burned by capsicum spray. Great promise - disappointing app. You can't do what the opening says you want to do with this app by itself.

It does do the job.. The requirements are technical. Here is my setup, as per the instructions for a iPhone with OpenCPN. iPhone has access to cellphone data and set to share data. Laptop network is connected to cellphone via WiFi (or iPhone cable if you have iTunes installed). GPS2IP set to Sockets and Cellular IP. OpenCPN set to Network and TCP, use the address shown as iPhone Server IP on GPS2IP main screen. The rest is self explanatory or keep default. Happy sailing

Review. This App works fairly dependably. My one constructive criticism may be to incorporate some help into the App. Thanks!

Useless. Tried the free version which seemed to work but the trial is so short it’s very hard to tell. I had faith so I bought it for $10 and it’s useless for my application. Would appreciate my money back.

Trial time ridiculously short. I fully support developers getting paid for their work, and a appreciate the opportunity to try an application before buying to ensure it works as I plan to use it. Unfortunately the trial period of 1 or 2 seconds is ridiculously short for any meaningful testing.

Waste of money.. Not happy with this app and the amount I paid for it. It did not work the way I had wanted it to. I've read the site several times and was not able to use the app with my phone as I had wanted to. I looking for it to display my location on GRLevel3 and also tried in ms maps and google earth. Gave up and bought a GPS receiver.
