Excellent tool, easy to use and does exactly what I want. Keep up the good
work!

Very good app. It does exactly what it is supposed to do. It is a great app for people that have to go to a place only knowing its coordinates (aerial work operations) Two suggestions. I think it will be very interesting to know (or to see) under the indicated distance to destination, the true or magnetic bearing (in degrees) and the time to destination calculated from our actual speed.

As good as your compass Compass on Droid is often unreliable, esp. indoors. But this app works very well when the compass is working.
★★☆☆☆
Not working I see the app hasn't been updated for 5 years. On my Samsung Galaxy Galaxy S6 it does not work properly. Entering point selection mode from the map rarely works - I only got it to go I to selection mode once from about 15 tries. The only way to enter poi (other than your current position) is to enter lat&long coordinates. If I have to use another app to get the coordinator ates of the point, it seems a bit pointless. Maybe it use to work on older phones, but doesn't seem to fully work now.
★★☆☆☆
Compass mode needed Needs a compass mode with Bering and distance to the poi for offline use.
★★☆☆☆
Very disappointing. User interface frustrating. Its name is true bearing but doesn't give any bearing between the points. No settings, no help or instructions. Whatever it does at least I can't understand, need a microscope to read, etc. Please create something better.
★★☆☆☆
Bearing Don't understand this. It's called bearing but doesn't give you the bearing of where you want to go. Can't find an app that does mind you so maybe it's not possible. Would have thought it was just maths?
