Not at all. The app will work with gps on phones and cellular-enabled iPads. You only need a receiver if you have a wifi-only device, and even then the app won't work right if it does not cache maps locally. Any server-based gps app, as many of them are, requires a constant data connection to work, and if the Sendero app does not cache maps it, too, will need such a connection.
