Excellent
Provided very accurate 12 figure UK grid coordinates. Would highly recommend.
Great App
Short and sweet, it’s a great app and works well. No lagging or stalling. Gives complete details from Grid reference, northings and eastings and bearing you’re marching on.
For development though. Could you possibly make an option to convert to mils mag as well as in degrees? As I know a lot of military have this on their phone and we use mils rather than degrees.
That’s all from me, look forward to seeing what comes out

Can be better
Great do what it is but it could be mad better by being able to put in grids and go from one grid to the other like a satnav
Works well
Very easy to operate, However, an iWatch version would be excellent!
Response from developer
You got it! New in version 2.2.
An absolute lifesaver!
I really enjoy the whole map reading navigation thing, I’m quite an obsessive map reader, but there can be occasions when even with the best will in the world, the situation can become confusing. I live on the edge of Dartmoor and there’s been times when the thick mist has come down in areas that I’m really very familiar with but even still, and thanks to my GridPoint, I realise that I’ve drifted hopelessly off course, but thanks to GridPoint I can now reset my compass bearing. Also the really good thing to be aware of is that GridPoint doesn’t need a phone signal to operate as it only relies on the GPS signals which always seem to be available. For me it’s always been 100% reliable, it’s never ever yet failed and I get out into the wilds quite a lot and in some pretty remote parts of the UK, Scotland too. IT’S JUST BRILLIANT! Whenever I bump into other walkers I’m very often extolling the virtues of GridPoint, I think it’s a real must have item for walkers and ramblers, and it’s so clear and straightforward to use.
Many thanks George MacKerron!

Nice one.

The best coordination app
The updates to this app are excellent, particularly the sharing info page which is v well thought through. It is the best mapping and coordinate aid I've used, and I'm amazed that it's still free. I'm pleased that it is possible to support this app by making a tip. For anyone that uses grid refs and maps this app is well worth supporting!
Well done guys!!

A Lean but Mean App!
I've used this app since it's very early release and still find it an invaluable addition to my navigation kit for hill walking. It works faultlessly and is very light on the phone battery, unlike digital mapping and GPS.
I use GridPoint to verify my position only when I've determined my location by means of visual terrain recognition and taking bearings if needed. This helps me improve my location finding.
Great work! Thank you.

Great app
Use this when following cycle
Trails that have multiple options, or when exploring and want some help pinpointing my position within a grid. Excellent app and very happy to see it's up and working with iOS again.

Fantastic App
This is a very simple app which gives your location on an OS map. I still like to use a map as my primary navigation tool - so this just helps if you need to confirm your location on the map.....and it's free. A few handy new features on v2 as well!
