[QUOTE="condor22, post: 157079, member: 1932"] I use Ozi Android on a Samsung Galaxy S4 (previous a S3) also on a Starpad 7" Tablet. I also have the full PC version on my Laptop. Regardless of device, you will need to have some kind of Topo Map on either PC or Android. The base map on any GPS is pretty crappy. I have Garmin Topo on my E20. I download waypoints from my Garmin E20 to my laptop Ozi as well as the logs from the Tablet, easy to do. I can then modify and or save the Waypoint or track logs to a file and then copy those files to my Android device. The biggest difference between Android Ozi and PC Ozi, is that you can pre construct Waypoints, tracks and other info on the PC version, you can't on the Android version. However Tracks and Waypoints saved to a file or a log can be copied both ways and used on both devices. I have not tried to connect my E20 Garmin to the Android version, you would need to ask Des at Ozi for that answer, but my gut tells me no. Re Google map, I don't bother. The 250k, 100k, 50k and 25k topo maps I have are more than adequate. [/QUOTE]
