But, haven’t we already been told that having the maps on the phone is
not an option that is acceptable to the folks at Sendero. That means
there will always be a big drain on the battery and a large amount of
data usage due to this being the way the app works.
So, you are paying for an app that will also cost more and demand more
from your data plan if you use it frequently, and mean that the phone
now can be used for GPS, but you may not have enough battery power to
make a phone call.

The drain might be a little less with Navigon because maps are stored on
the phone, so it doesn’t need to keep calling the server for map data.

Well, I have no such problems with Navigon or with BlindSquare so it's
worth a try. I am sorry for sending it to the list though.

It is a known fact that GPS aps drain the battery, especially when
used in conjunction with a Bluetooth headset, and or keyboard.

Hi Sheri, here is my receipt from the iTunes store.
I appreciate your help with this matter.
I had problems with excessive battery drain using the app
because I wasn't able to use the app in lock mode.
Regards, Paula
