It can work as an ordinary GPS device, with or without a Smart Phone, But If you have a smart phone that will add more useful functions! I hope that I answered your question

No, you need a service provider for it to have and use wifi. I hsve tried on various other phones with same results.

Yes, you need a computer or laptop to use this. Most tablets (Windows, Apple, and Android) have bluetooth built in as well as smart pones.

No. THis is not a smart phone. It has internet access, but you can't buy a smart phone for this price. It has text ability, and you can store numbers on it, but it is not like a smart phone. It is a great phone. I need a simple phone, so I love mine, and it comes pretty much as you see it, with a battery and charger. If you are looking for a smart phone, look elsewhere, however.

there is only a smart phone app. It uses bluetooth 2, not bluetooth 4, so you have to keep your phone plugged in all night

No. Without a smart phone all it can do is tell the time and basic stopwatch.

No smart phones can not be used. You would have to change your plan-59.99 a month. Sorry

It's not necessary, but in order to have full functionality, it will need to be connected to the internet via wi-fi. Without a wi-fi connection, you will only be able to make & receive calls & texts and use offline apps (like games).

It depends on what area you're in. I used it with Net10 just fine but you have to be in certain areas or they say the smart phones aren't supported.

It depends on the smart phone. I have never tried to use a smart phone with it. We have only used the radio and CD player.

No, this is not a smart phone, just good emergency phone if needed. It does have a good camera and keyboard.

No, you would need data/internet to use any social media app. However, you may send and receive text messages depending on your phone plan, of course.

No... But you can do it wirelessly. Call your internet provider to turn on WiFi. then your phone will be connected to the Internet .

You absolutely need a cell phone. Why you can get by without a cell phone, it is much less useful without one.

Yes. Your device must be wi-fi compatible. It must also be turned on,(wi-fi).

Yes, provided you have an open USB port. This also assumes you are not using the optional wireless connection available from SMART.
