### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-02-19, version 2.0.3*

Does what it says. Please add the ability to copy from the fields

### 5/5 — Just Works

*2017-01-06, version 2.0.2*

Great for displaying raw GPS data. Would be nice if there was an option to open in map, or to copy just the coordinates, also logging and exporting the data would be nice.

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2014-06-21*

Works great

### 4/5 — Works :-)

*2013-01-13, version 1.1.1*

wish list: number of detected satellites
then 5 stars.

### 3/5 — Good but no averaging

*2012-12-19, version 1.1.1*

It is good to have an app which gives the core values. However it would be good to have the opportunity to average each measurement to increase the accuracy and to switch to DMS.x format. It would be further good to have the opportunity to save the data. them I would rate with 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Clean and simple

*2010-11-11, version 0*

Great app for general development of apps based on gps data.Simple and exactly what you need.
