3.3.3

February 15, 2017

What's New in 3.3.3 - We fixed a bug in the firmware update cancellation logic. This was causing some users to have trouble updating the firmware on their Bluetooth Bad Elf GPS units. - Occasionally some bogus data points from the hardware were sneaking into your trips and GNX/KML files. We have since tightened up our filters to omit obvious erroneous points. - Various small but embarrassing bug fixes and improvements. Bad Elf GNSS Surveyor Users: - You can now create multiple Ntrip profiles and switch between them instead of typing in the credentials each time you switch networks. - If you forget to disconnect from your Ntrip network when turning off your Bad Elf GNSS Surveyor, the connection is automatically dropped after 60 seconds. This prevents unnecessary cellular data consumption. - We fixed a bug that prevented Ntrip location reporting from some latitude/longitude values. - You can now add a point-of-interest from the Deviation Plot screen.

Leave a Review Bad Elf GPS
  • App and device are rock solid

    This app and my Bad Elf GPS Pro is wonderful. I like tracking my hikes for when I take photos. It’s helpful to sync the GPS data to the photos to show locations. Great when you want to remember that one spot and for populating various metadata. Device and app haven’t changed in years but they got it right the first time and doesn’t need to. Both are reliable and intuitive.

  • GPS Pro+ is discontinued

    When I was searching for an additional GOS unit, I was surprised to discover the GPS Pro+ was discontinued in favor of a replacement (“Flex”) — that retails about twice the price — I cannot recommend it. The closest functional and price replacement is the “Dual.”

    I was an early adopter to the Bad Elf system, and I was saddened to find it was unceremoniously dropped from all the usual retailers and its own website.

  • Works without internet?

    Apparently not. Other than graph showing satellites no way to tell. Till you don’t have a signal. I was at Yellowstone and had no signal so I plugged in myBad Elf and. Nothing. Blue dot was flashing but without a base map not much help. Any hand held gps give you a signal without internet, but you have to revert to an inconvenient paper map. What good is bad elf if it doesn’t display a base map. Disappointed not what it is claimed to be.
