Bump.

Question for you guys that have used multiple smartphone navigation apps. I have decent GPS skills but get lost in the terms and meaning companies give for what their units or software can do.

Which apps allows BOTH in and out of cell tower range, the ability to plug in a coordinate (specifically Lat/Long and UTM)and then give distance, direction, data like a dedicated GPS?

It just seems to me reading all the app pages and editorials that if your out of cellservice using a cached map smartphone navigation app, that you can not plug in a coordinate and create a route for it. Everything has to be a waypoint done while the phone is in cell range.

I do a lot of training where I am given coordinates and have to get there, like in orienteering events and those are mostly done in areas with no cell service. And even in urban environments, I find my current crop of nav apps lacking in the ability to plug in a grid coord and go there. They have to be a POI or street address.
