支持文档太差了!文档就两个图,多写几个字作者都不愿意。

First time user (grumpy old Geologist)

I like the idea of the “app” but I am having trouble displaying my location. I am in Southern California and my “attitude” location on the “map” showed I am off East Africa!?🤨 Please Help!🙏🏼

Great app

Please incorporate stereonets!!!

Excellent app

Well designed. Makes iPhone a highly functional geologic instrument. Even better if elevation could be set to feet and if dip could be read aloud so you don't have to look at the screen when setting position.

Instructions please!

I figured out how to take a strike (using the top of my iPhone along the planar surface I'm measuring) however the dip I cannot figure out and the pictures in the info section are not helpful! Ive tried every edge of my phone with a known strike and dip surface and have yet to get a correct measurement of the dip with this app.

Also, is data coverage required to use the app and store data? Or will it store with our cell service/wifi??

This seems like it would be a very useful app but it needs more support!! Please update!

Response from developer

The usage of this app is really very simple. First, you can put your iPhone/iPad oriented like the diagrams shown in User's Guide, and click on Save to save the data. Then you got the record in the List tab and you can take photos, videos and voice notes to each record.
