Description
Uses the GPS sensor, Magnetic Field Sensor and Accelerometer to determine the distance and direction to a GPS waypoint. Does not need to be held level.
Normally a compass needs to be level to get the correct reading, but this app uses the accelerometer reading to convert the magnetic field reading back to the horizontal plane.
In addition to the direction and distance to the waypoint, a compass ring shows the current heading. North points to True North (i.e. The direction is corrected for the magnetic declination - the difference between magnetic north and true north).
The GPS reading and the time since that reading is shown at the bottom of the screen. Use for geocaching, finding your car, hotel, or other locations.
• Store up to 500 waypoints. • Imperial or Metric units. • Import and Export waypoints as GPX files.
Arrow colour changes to green at less than 30m and blue at less than 10m to make it easier for littler ones to identify that they've reached the waypoint.
Whilst walking, look where your going, not at the app or you might trip! The app tells you the direction of your destination, not how to get there.
Only as good as the sensors in your device. Use for Indication Only.
Recent changes: v1.13 Updated to use newer code methods and made some adjustments to better target and run reliably on devices in 2024 v1.14 bug fix

I am a meteo sonde chaser. This app does exactly what I need: shows direction and the distance to a known GPS coordinates.
★★★★★
The app have basic gps waypoint option only, but I'm waiting app update version
★★☆☆☆
You can set the app to use degrees, decimal degrees or degrees minutes seconds for display, but it only allows entry of waypoints in degrees minutes seconds. Say what?? Junk.
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't recognize GPX files placed into the folder it claims to search. I'm absolutely not going to input waypoints manually with this app - Pretty pointless if you can't load GPX files...
★★☆☆☆
WAS a decent app. Then, all my waypoints disappeared. Had almost a hundred saved from so many miles trekked over several years. Extremely disappointed.
★★☆☆☆
Can't paste coordinates, and when I try to switch to another app to copy, the app deletes the waypoint I'm creating. Would be 5 stars if you could paste Lon and Lat as one comma separated string such a "40.1234, -70.1234"
