The ability to directly reference What 3 Words from within the app would be exceptionally useful. ### 4/5 — GB converter *2021-05-13, version 2.4* Straightforward to use. Handy when I’ve screenshotted the wrong compass app. ### 3/5 — sound problems *2020-04-30, version 2.4* using the app i have no sound , which is annoying when driving to a grid reference ### 4/5 — Why not watch compatible? *2017-12-06, version 2.4* This app would be great if it is watch compatible. ### 4/5 — Update needed *2017-11-09, version 2.4* This is a great app that works very well, or at least it used to. It needs to be updated for iOS 11. ### 4/5 — Update *2017-10-11, version 2.3* Will you update app ASAP ### 3/5 — iOS 11 *2017-09-20, version 2.3* Please could you update the app to work on iOS 11? Thanks, Glen ### 4/5 — Mr *2017-03-21, version 2.3* Great App, thank you ### 4/5 — GB Converter *2017-02-21, version 2.3* Works ok but need updating. ### 4/5 — Excellent *2016-04-29, version 2.3* Very handy. Reliable. ### 4/5 — Just what I needed... *2015-10-19, version 2.3* ...to get directions to an OS grid reference number position from 'current location', using the iPhone Maps app. ### 4/5 — Useful tool *2015-08-03, version 2.3* Useful little app, used it to find exactly where I was during my walk to confirm my position on the map. ### 4/5 — Tec *2014-07-08, version 2.2* Works fine. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Drop pin *2020-08-10, version 2.4* When adding a drop pin it dose not give you a TQ anymore, unless you are at that location ### 1/5 — Update required *2017-10-03, version 2.3* Please take some action soon otherwise will have to search for another alternative ; immediate action required. Rates when working 4/5 presently 0 can’t use . ### 1/5 — Not working anymore. *2016-09-29, version 2.3* I think this app needs updating as it is not working anymore. Can drop a pin but no info given. Please sort out so I can rate this app 5 stars. ### 1/5 — Clunky and inaccurate *2015-06-05, version 2.3* Caused my iPad Air to crash, so I shut all other programs, opened again after reboot and did it again. Worked the third time only to discover a clunky and not very intuitive interface and the map pointer coordinates were not actually accurate when checked manually. I know it's free but it doesn't make things any easier, try another program. ### 1/5 — No longer works *2014-02-25, version 2.3* Something badly wrong with latest update. Doesn't work on either my iPhone or iPad. ### 1/5 — Ruined a good app *2013-07-30, version 2.0* This new update has more detail than the previous but it doesn't provide an accurate grid ref for newly placed marker pins on the map, the same grid ref appears when you "covert this location" on all pins. Very disappointed as I used this app dozens of times a day. ### 1/5 — Sunk by Apple Map? *2012-12-26, version 1.8* The calculator part still works, but the app is now deficient due to Apple's hopeless default map. ### 2/5 — Update please *2017-10-21, version 2.3* Really like this app. Unfortunately no longer works with iOS 11. Please update ASAP. ### 2/5 — Update for IOS 11 *2017-09-30, version 2.3* Needed as no longer works with iOS 11 ### 3/5 — . *2021-09-11, version 2.4* Ii NF X-raysm ;(;;?4?3 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — An indispensable, brilliant app *2024-06-26, version 3.0* Quite simply a brilliant app. I’ve not found another app that does what this app does: 1) where are we? Gives you the Grid Reference 2) Where’s that on the map? In 1 click it shows you. Therefore, you can;: 3) Navigate to a GridReference Brilliant! Thanks so much. An indispensable, brilliant app ### 5/5 — Best App *2021-06-17, version 2.4* For myself the OS app is essential for instant and accurate grid reference when recording wildlife sightings. Been using for many years wouldn’t be without it. ### 5/5 — GPS *2021-05-23, version 2.4* Love that I can get grit references without buying a satnav. ### 5/5 — Love the app. *2020-10-02, version 2.4* Works well. I enjoy using it as one of my tools. Very handy. ### 5/5 — Versatile *2018-12-23, version 2.4* Very useful & to use in conjunction with sat navigation programs ### 5/5 — Awesome *2017-02-25, version 2.3* Brilliant app. Could do with little more accuracy as can never get it down to 5m. But very minor point. Easy to use and just brilliant. ### 5/5 — Perfect every time. *2015-08-30, version 2.3* This app works accurately ever time. Sometimes works without any signal too. ### 5/5 — Does what it says *2015-06-09, version 2.3* Works just fine. ### 5/5 — Fan *2014-08-18, version 2.3* Top app. So helpful for giving you the decimal GPS coordinates, which you can give to friends to locate your position if you're trying to meet up (they just need to plug it into google maps direct). The existing iphone compass doesn't have decimal coordinates for GPS, so this app is essential. ### 5/5 — Brilliant app! *2014-06-05, version 2.3* This app is brilliant. I work in the fuel delivery industry and I need to convert decimal co-ordinates to OS. This app not only does it offline (I'm not always in an area where I can get a signal), but it also plots it on Google/Apple maps. Thank you SO much. I'm a very happy tanker driver now :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
