About XRS Location Services
Introducing XRS™ Connect Location Services - a new era for UHF CB radio.
Location & Status
XRS™ Connect Location Services enables users to send, receive and display GPS location with each transmission. Combining the power of XRS™ with the GPS engine and display of a smartphone or tablet, enabled by Bluetooth® Smart technology, XRS™ Connect Location Services creates a whole new world of possibilities for UHF CB radio. Users are also able to send, receive and display a short text 'status' on the tail of transmissions, selecting from either pre-defined or user-defined statuses, up to 32 characters.
Offline Maps
XRS™ Connect Location Services offers offline map caching, giving users the option to download* and store detailed maps - ensuring accurate map display in areas with no cellular coverage. A welcome inclusion for off-road 4WD adventures, long distance touring and remote workers.
Points of Interest
XRS™ Connect Location Services enables users to log and save an unlimited number of points of interest using the intuitive user interface - perfect for asset mapping on large properties and revisiting those 'secret' spots in the 4WD.
Contacts & Groups
XRS™ Connect Location Services displays the user-designated ID or 'tag' of each XRS™ radio within transmission range, allowing easy identification and tracking of multiple users. Create custom groups to easily manage contacts and filter display results.
Firmware Upgrades
XRS™ Connect Location Services enables the firmware of the XRS™ radio to be upgraded using a smartphone or tablet*. Receive notification of new features and enhancements, updated regularly at no additional cost.
*Internet connection required. Data charges may apply.

I discussed the possibility of this feature with the techs at the release event of XRS. It's great to see it followed through. So many companies sit on their hands when these sorts of features are possible. I love my XRS 370.
