How can I know whether my mobile phone supports Beidou navigation?

Currently, almost all Android phones produced within three years support the Beidou navigation system. The iPhone launched by Apple does not support the Beidou navigation system.

If you need to check whether your mobile phone supports the Beidou navigation system, you can first download a GPS test software, then open the GPS navigation option of the mobile phone, go to an open area outdoors, open the software and you can see Beidou satellite.

As shown in the picture above, the green ones are Beidou satellites.

It should be noted that the Beidou navigation system is at the chip level. You should not have any awareness of the Beidou navigation in daily use. So you don’t need to worry about whether any content of Beidou Navigation is displayed on your mobile phone.

Currently, in the Xiaomi App Market, there are two copycat Beidou Navigation APPs, riding on the popularity of Beidou Navigation. I don’t know what the country says about trademark protection, but these two copycat software have indeed misled many people, thinking that downloading this app means using Beidou Navigation.

Copycat Beidou Map

In fact, currently well-known map software such as Amap and Baidu Maps all support Beidou Navigation, as long as If your mobile phone supports Beidou navigation, then they support it. Therefore, there is no need to download those map software with Beidou in the name. The key is that these are all copycat apps.

I hope the relevant units can ban these two copycat softwares, because they have really misled many people.

The above text is just my personal opinion. If you readers have different opinions, please feel free to leave a message in the comment area.

The mainstream positioning systems on mobile phones now are GPS and Beidou.

(The picture comes from the Internet)

GPS is from the United States, and its full name is Global Positioning System (Global Positioning System)

Beidou is from China, and its full name is China's Beidou Satellite Navigation System (BeiDou Navigation Satellite System, BDS)

In fact, you don’t need to pay too much attention to the question asked by the questioner. First of all, domestic mobile phones in recent years basically have built-in Beidou and GPS, but Apple mobile phones are No.

These two positioning systems are only used for mobile phone positioning. There will be no difference in actual use. They work quietly in the background.

Due to usage habits, most mobile phones now refer to their positioning as GPS. This name is not appropriate for current mobile phones and will also mislead users. Personally, I think Better positioning instead.

If you want to know whether your mobile phone supports Beidou, you can download the following software.

——GPS TEST

It can search for positioning satellites that your mobile phone can search, (bd) which is the Beidou signal.

To check whether your mobile phone supports Beidou, you don’t need to download any software. Just look at the packaging of your mobile phone or check the specifications of your mobile phone online

Beidou Navigation The system is good and stable

It feels like bragging because the country has invested so much money in Beidou Navigation. It was announced for use yesterday, but now I can’t find a genuine mobile APP available. Isn’t it a joke?

The number of Beidou has finally exceeded the number of GPS. The rise

Domestic mobile phones say they support Beidou positioning, but there is only an American GPS in the mobile phone. Could it be that the Beidou positioning symbols are also GPS
