App REVIEWS

XW

I am using this app on my Android head unit and I like it a lot. However, I am a little surprised that the SNR of any satellite is always below 50, even though I have connected the head unit to the original car's GPS antenna.

Killua

Really great app, but I've noticed that the sunset function is a bit off most of the time. I've tried half a dozen sunset estimation programs and this is the only one that provides a different time. It's usually just over two minutes early.

Brian

Great app and was happy to purchase it. Is it possible to set the night mode to activate automatically? Given that the app is monitoring sunrise and sunset, this should be achievable. Second question: Are different fonts available? I noted in the sample images here that there are different fonts from what I've got in my app

ephrem

I have been using this app for several years and it is perfect. However, it would be nice if you can manage to provide options to take way points and to share saved locations.

Russell

Upgraded using in app offer. Perfect for hiking to pinpoint car / campsite if lost. Please could we have favourite locations as you don't always want to delete all saved points and could we have share locations points as it would be useful to send a stored point to a map not just your current location.

Paul

This is an amazing tool, so I was amazed there weren't any reviews. I'll write more after using it longer, but I already like this better for simple tasks like quickly marking a parking spot and returning to it. I didn't even know there were a half dozen GNSS systems or that my phone was routinely using Russian satellites to refine my US/GPS location.

Tim

I'll start off with a "back handed compliment"... I've given up looking for reasons to like this app and I'm now searching for reasons to dislike it -- and so far I am unsuccessful. I really like the simple, logical layout and feature offerings from simple Long/Lat to GPS time to location mapping on a world map (showing daylight and nighttime regions). I was also offered 4 hours of full features (i.e., the upgrade version). Near as I can tell, the benefits are modest, but I be paying anyhow.

Ren

The Layout of this App is absolutely wonderful. It's perfect for my Samsung S5e Tablet. I also like being able to customize various details and the colours. The ability to quickly turn to Night View is very practical when on route. What I don't like is the functionality of the compass. I've been trying to calibrate for well over an hour. The compass allways show 180° in the wrong direction. My other App the "GPS Status" from com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2 shows the compass correctly. CAN YOU HELP PLS.

Guest

Great app, I just purchased the pro version. One feature request to the developer, can we please have an automatic location saving feature. A screen where we select how long we want to save the location (next 1,2, etc hours or unlimited), location file settings (name, folder, etc), and the frequency to capture the location (every 1/n seconds, minutes, hours etc). Txt file had 1 entry per line. This could be very useful.

Stuart

Very useful app, but does not handle GPS date rollover correctly, which happened on 6th April 2019. Now date is always 1024 weeks in the past, and seems to take longer to sync, presumably because it is initially looking for the wrong satellites in its almanac. Update: The recent release has fixed the rollover issue and restored the app to its former excellence.
----------
The new release 1.6.2 is being rolled out so you should see it in the next few days, please give this version a try.

Keith

UTC date and local date are both wrong by almost 20 years. Today (30 Nov 2019) it displays 15 Apr 00. Also seen - a bad local time (off by 1 hour), bad sunrise and sunset times, and a magnetic declination that is off by 3 degrees. These are probably all related to the date issue. Also, the compass heading display is wrong (by twice the declination) when North Reference mode is set to True. This is disappointing, I don't recall these problems prior to this version 1.5.9. EDIT 09 May 2020. All earlier problems fixed in v 1.6.2. Excellent once more, thanks!
----------
Week number rollover bug should now be fixed. Version 1.6.2 is now fully released please give it a try.

Ian

The app itself is good for with nice features and I paid for the premium version. But can't get the extra features after opening it again. It's still locked and if I click upgrade it says I already own it. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail.
----------
Version 1.6.2 is now fully released please give it a try.

Clay

It works very well, a simple but thorough app. However, after an update sometime ago it began to show altitude incorrectly. The indicated altitude would increase as I descended off a mountain. I am unsure if this is due to the software or my still using an obsolete OS (4.1). Update 03/28/2020 It began to work correctly again, so I don't have any criticism at all now.

Tony

I like this app for getting some idea of altitude. When you're looking at homes and trying to determine flooding potential. Sure, there's some variation in the altitude but at least you get some idea. Maidenhead coordinates are used by ham radio operators. Unfortunately, the Maidenhead coordinates are coming out backwards. Once you know that, you can work around it but prior versions didn't have that problem.
----------
Maidenhead is fixed. Version 1.6.2 is now fully released please give it a try.

David

It’s a great app and I use it all the time on my motorcycle for speed, altitude, direction, etc. The only thing I believe it does incorrectly is subtract, rather than add, declination to Magnetic North when set to display True North. A very minor flaw as phones aren’t really ideal for orienteering.

Michael

I have had no trouble with this app until today, and I love using it for location, speed, and sunset data. However, today, the first day of Standard Time, the Local Time feature updated, but the time of sunset did not, which meant that sunset came an hour earlier than predicted, and I got caught in the darkness on my bicycle, which was not fun. Other than that, the program runs well.
----------
Version 1.6.2 is now fully released please give it a try.

Jogchem

This used to be my goto app for any GPS issues. Now it gets stuck in an ad-cycle. Can't use it anymore. Only shows ads. What a total disaster! It gets stuck on the altitude screen, if try to go to the main screen it shows an ad, and after the ad finishes, the application terminates. If i open it again, i get to the altitude screen and ad again. No escape!
----------

John

I like it, but there's just one little hang-up. When I look at the screen that shows GPS time and Local time I note that the seconds portion of both times match exactly! The GPS system has never adjusted their atomic clocks since day one. Whereas the rest of the world has. At this writing GPS time lags by about 18 seconds. This app doesn't seem to take that fact into account. Not a big deal unless using this app in conjunction with taking celestial shots.

Bruce

This used to be a 5 star app. I used it regularly on my motorbike as a secondary (though much more obvious) speedometer, and when flying as a back-up altimeter/compass; but at some point within the last week or two it has decided that my GPS is never on (it's always on), and the app can't be used unless I turn the GPS service on... I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app, allowed all permissions, and nothing. I WAS going to get the paid version of this because I loved the app so much; but now I won't even have the "free" one on my phone anymore because it just doesn't work!
----------

Julia

Not an intuitive user interface, so it's hard to navigate around. The menu options shift places (no joke). Also, I couldn't find a way to see which satellite is from which system. Map isn't useful by any means.
