But in my case it’s 32U. Seems to be bugged. **Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the review. This is currently expected behaviour - the implementation used within the app simply specifies the hemisphere you are in (I.e N is northern and S would be southern). But I understand that this is not what most people expect. I am currently working on adding the ability to specify whether you just want the hemisphere or the more fine grain grid letter. ## Frequently asked questions about GPS Locate ### What coordinate systems does GPS Locate support?
