User reviews

Useful

GCTools is a very helpful app that makes puzzle solving on a mobile device much easier.

genau was man braucht

genau was man braucht, insbesondere Zielführung zu selbst eingegebenen Koordinaten, was man regelmäßig bei Virtual- und Multicaches braucht, wenn man nur mit Handy unterwegs ist und neue Koordinaten findet, berechnet, oder wie auch immer ermittelt. Wirklich schade dass diese App nicht mehr weiterentwickelt wird. Ich würde hierfür auch bezahlen.

Endlich DIE eine App gefunden

Lange war ich auf der Suche nach einer einfachen und kostenlosen App. Hauptsächlich sollten Wegpunkte eingegeben werden können und eine Navigation mit Kompass gestartet werden können. Das funktioniert hier reibungslos. Zusätzlich sind einige Hilfsmittel wie Code-Entschlüssler und Projektionen von Wegpunkten an Board.

Super empfehlenswert!!

Very useful and works well for me

Nice app with lots of features that are useful.

Super!

War mega hilfreich bei meinem letzten Multi, dank der Code-Tabellen. Eine habe ich nicht gefunden, die auch noch gebraucht wurde. Entweder habe ich Tomaten auf den Augen oder ein Nachrüsten wäre klasse! Die ‚Segmentanzeige‘! In den Variationen 7, 9, 14 und 16.
Ansonsten TOP! Mit Segmentanzeige gibts dann zukünftig ein Zusatzsternchen :-) Danke für das Super Tool! Weiter so!
