The data bar at the bottom of the moving map will display real-time information. From left to right: ID and name of next waypoint; bearing, track and distance of next waypoint; groundspeed and altitude as reported by the GPS signal, and estimated time to the next waypoint.
The data bar also shows a GPS signal symbol as follows:
Excellent GPS signal
Good GPS signal
Weak GPS signal
Very week GPS signal
For real time navigation, the quality of the GPS signal is required to be a green or yellow symbol. A red or orange symbol will only show an approximate location and will not report speed nor track information.For better results, place your device near a window, with a direct view of the sky. If you are flying with a full-metal airplane or your airplane is equipped with anti-ice windshield, the internal GPS of your tablet/mobile may be a bit weak and you may need an external GPS device to assist it.
