The GPS indicator
shows the availability of the satellite signals. One bar is
one satellite. When the device tries to find satellite signals, the bar is yellow. When the
device receives enough data from the satellites for GPS to calculate your location, the
bar turns green. The more green bars, the more reliable the location calculation.
Initially, your device must receive signals from at least four satellites to calculate the
coordinates of your location. After the initial calculation, signals from three satellites
may be enough.
The data transfer indicator
shows the internet connection used, and the
amount of data transferred since the application started.
