Only one device needs cell service (we used a phone). The scouting devices (tablets) can push either directly if they have WiFi or send their data over bluetooth to the device with internet.

If the phone doesn't have internet it will queue the scouting reports and let you push them later. The tablets also keep every scouting report in a local DB, so you could also push from each tablet later.

EDIT:

Forgot to mention that there's also a Andriod/iOS viewing app that caches the data locally, so you don't need a constant internet connection to view the data
