Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes and no. This operates by way of a high definition radio signal. The signal comes out of numerous major cities all across the country; places traffic jams are more likely to occur. The signals cover large areas but not the entire country so if you're in range then, no, you won't need a phone. Out of range, yes.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You do not need a smartphone. It shows traffic situations such as an accident up ahead. We like the traffic receiver as it did tell us about a traffic situation on the expressway up ahead and where is was. It does not do live traffic which you do need a smartphone for.
