## What is BringMeHome?

The compass that guides you to every place on earth
No internet connection needed
Small download size

Not everybody needs a big navigation system
Not everybody wants a dominant voice to keep him on track

But … 

… if you exit a pub after one pint too much
… if you are riding your mountain bike aside of the roads
… if you are walking through nature
… if you are on a lake or on the sea without nautic high tech
… if you are on your camel in the desert


… then sometimes you need someone to point to the right direction  

The good news:

That´s exactly what »BringMeHome« does. Just store your favorite places in the waypoint list and you always know which direction you have to take.

And even better: 

You don´t have to take your iPhone out of your pocket. Just turn your wrist and your Apple watch points to the right direction.

There are many other features. And I´m sure you don´t want to read all my boring stuff and examples and … OK, OK, I stop here. So let me give you a brief overview

… shows the direction to any destination in the world
… Pick any place worldwide from a map or search addresses or points of interest or landmarks
… displays the distance in m and km as well as in feet and miles and nautic miles (nm)
… displays the speed in km/h mph and nautic knots
… displays time and average speed in total AND in motion
… Share your position on facebook and twitter or by iMessage with other BringMeHome users, who can automatically navigate to you by tapping the message-link
… All information is available on the iPhone as well as on the Apple watch and the iPad
… Distance to the destination, the direction and the speed are also shown in the TODAY screen that you can access without unlocking your phone 


OK, there might be some more stuff … but I "keep the ball flat" (a german figure of speech, which means I dont want to tell you more than you want to know)

Happy BringMeHome-ing

### 4/5 — Very good, 2 problems

*2020-03-09*

I like the app and the concept for it, but correct me if I’m wrong, is there a way to delete waypoints if you make them on accident? Don’t get the wrong idea, though, I love the app

### 5/5 — Bitte

*2018-11-04*

..passt die App für die Watch 4 an 🙌🏻

### 1/5 — War gut....

*2018-10-22*

... ist aber nicht mehr kompatibel mit Watch OS 5. daher für mich zur Zeit nicht mehr nutzbar.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-06-12, version 1.3*

Doesn’t point north - it points west instead...

### 5/5 — Bring me home

*2018-05-03*

Great app for Apple Watch, tested at home first to check it worked and no problems encountered. Thanks

### 5/5 — App, die tut was sie soll! Entwickler offen für neue Ideen! Top!

*2015-12-25*

Die App macht, was sie soll und das sehr gut. Gut finde ich die eingeblendete Karte für Nah- bzw. Zielbereich oder die Gesamtstrecke. Das trägt zur Übersichtlichkeit und besserer Orientierung bei. Der Entwickler ist zudem offen für neue Ideen, was ich bei der Kontaktaufnahme bemerkt habe. Insgesamt Spitze! Weiter so und Danke!

### 5/5 — Well designed app

*2015-11-06, version 1.3*

Exactly what I was looking for.

### 5/5 — Super!

*2015-10-21*

Ich nutze die App regelmäßig und muss sagen, sie ist echt top!

### 5/5 — Einfach und Ziel gerichtet

*2015-10-20*

Eine super App, um bestimmte Orte einfach zu lokalisieren, auch wenn diese nicht gerade in der Nähe sind. Es ist die App, die ich schon lange gesucht habe.

### 5/5 — Einfach nur nach Hause...

*2015-10-15*

...und das möglichst ohne viel Tamtam...und genau das macht diese App. 
Einfach anders und genial...Steve Jobs hätte seine Freude dran...einfach austesten und nie wieder Ziellos...;)

...übrigens, auch Captain Jack Sparrow setzt auf einen ähnlichen Kompass...in auch diese Kompassnadel zu Gold und Gloria führt?! Wer weiß...;)
