If handheld GPS isn't allowed, what about smartphone GPS that works in airplane mode?

I'm a little confused about the rules for using GPS on a flight.

Handheld GPS units are not allowed to be operated.... but what
about smartphones that do not disable GPS reception even when
airplane mode is turned on?(wifi/cellular/data all off, but GPS
continues to work)
