Yes, it needs a data connection to initiate navigation. Once you're on your way you don't need it anymore.

However, the answer to your question is, actually, YES! Check this out.



I finally got around to looking into navigation. Unfortunate Google offline maps will only cache a 10 mile area and you can’t create a new navigation destination within that area if your offline.

So, I’m still looking for recommendations on an app. that turns an android into a turn by turn GPS without being online.
