This app does everything I need it to, except keep maps when offline and plan routes, which are both in the works. It’s a great way to get all the information you need at a glance, and has a lot of functions with the customization options to match. Updates come regularly and bugs are prettymuch all worked out. Well worth the price.
I bought this app a few years ago, when I was still in the Army, back then I paid $10. I used it as secondary/backup/check-location-accuracy. Since it was on my phone, it couldn’t be my primary source. My primary source was a wrist Garmin GPS, I would (discreetly) open this app and check my position, both, my Garmin GPS and this app were always on point, may be 1-2 meters off but that’s nothing since we used a 10 meter margin of error. I’ve always loved the satellite image because it allowed us to plan better when picking routes of travel.
For a one time payment, the accuracy it has and all the things you can do, $10 is a steal.
Highly recommend this app, I have and keep doing it when the subject comes up.
I use MilGPS monthly to plan and practice land navigation. A great feature is the datum conversions all listed out under the waypoint. It cuts down on mistakes and makes it easier to communicate position to others who may be operating off other map sets or GPS systems. I would like to see an option to make 1:24,000 topos the map base. 5 stars if that happens.
The work flows to input a grid coordinate and pull it up on the map by typing the coordinates in, are difficult to find and require too many steps to pull off. Seeing as how that’s one of the primary tasks when operating a GPS, I suggest the developers rethink the UX/UI of the workflows for that particular function. Other than that, it shows where you’re at accurately and clearly. Good for use in immediate surrounding area assessments, but aside from that, I couldn’t recommend it to anyone as it currently stands.
Thank you. Thank you to everyone that invested time, energy, and effort into the creation of this app, making it one of, if not the most used app on my phone. Please keep up with either the updates, or making sure it is compatible with future versions of iOS, I was not joking when I said one of the most used apps, I use it for everything from business to personal life. I love it. Thank you.
Once you get used to this app it does everything I can imagine you would need for land Nav and plotting points. I’m Army SF cadre and I use this all the time. The only small thing I would like to be able to do is edit the names of the locations when you drop a point on your crosshairs from the map screen instead of having to go into the overlays. That’s a small thing. Overall I’d say it’s worth the $$
I would give 5 stars if only for one thing...
I think it was a waste of money since I can’t plan ahead of time by pulling distance between two points. That’s the one thing I need to be able to plan ahead. This app is great to navigate from your current location, but if you need to know anticipated waypoint to waypoint info then you are out of luck.
If this feature is added it will be a great product.
I use this app to help me locate and manage the corners on various pieces of remote property. The exact locations were/are gathered by our surveyor but MilGPS gets me within feet of our flags, stone monuments, or iron pipes that mark the various corners of our property. Has never crashed on me and always gets me within feet of the corner. Also very easy to store different points and organize them by parcel instead of one long list. Very customizable and reliable. Has absolutely been worth the price.
So I have had this app since it first came out. I am a JTAC and I use it primarily for CAS training. So I like how I can manage my points and save them based on my training scenarios I run. The only gripe I would have about this app is elevation. I would like to actually have elevation added to the points I drop! That would make it a 5 star in my book. Thanks overall though.
Great app, very intuitive, flexible, and good documentation. Would love to see ability to display course, distance, time, and speed between to points. Mark time when each point is dropped to determine the speed you traveled between each point.
