### 4/5 — Great app. Missing one feature.

*2025-07-24*

Great app. Missing a star in this review because it is not yet possible to cache a map of an area you will be going to that does not have cell coverage. I like to take screen shots of GPS Location

### 4/5 — Great GPS app

*2022-11-06*

I’ve tried many, and they’re all so bloated with stuff you don’t need. This has the basics down pat. Shows you your gps coordinates out to 5 decimals, and let’s you “move” the crosshairs to a location where you can send someone the location of anywhere you designate…even if you’re not actually there yourself.

However, I downgraded by one star because the heading function uses magnetic north and not true north, with no option to change it (or at least accept the setting on the phone for try north).  It’s super great to include that…it’s useful as a compass. But without declination it’s off by 11 degrees or so.

### 3/5 — Works well as is; needs some tweaks

*2018-05-22*

I find if I want standard GPS coords, this does fine. However, the UI could use some optimization for newer hi-res screens. Looking dated on my iPhone 8. 

Also:
1) allow toggling between GPS formats so that info doesn’t take up so much screen space. 
2) add UTM. I do volunteer surveys with a large municipal utility, and all their maps are UTM out of ArcGIS. I have to use a different app to use UTM maps.

### 3/5 — Good app

*2017-09-24*

Nice app but would be better if gb grid reference could also be displayed.

### 4/5 — Works good needs better maps

*2017-06-05*

Generally it works well.  The map displayed for our house is around 4 or 5 years old.

### 4/5 — Good

*2017-05-02, version 1.11*

Needs a way to search for coordinates

### 3/5 — Zulu time accuracy

*2017-04-28, version 1.11*

I have been enjoying this app (free version) for years for the use of the UTC time stamp and location. I just purchased this one thinking it will be better and it's not. I like the crosshairs feature but now when you zoom in, your location dot disappears. What's the point of that? The free app is better.

### 4/5 — Amateurish yet good

*2016-08-04, version 1.10*

May want to check spelling. Coordinates not cordinates. 
But functional.

### 4/5 — Executive

*2016-05-25, version 1.10*

Friendly to use and accurate

### 4/5 — Best Lat/Long Program!

*2015-05-29, version 1.10*

This app displays lat/longs in three formats and let's you send the info to your text or email.  I wish they would add the option in Location Services of "While Using".   The only options are "Always" or "Never".

### 5/5 — Great GPS Coordinate Getter!

*2015-05-07, version 1.10*

I use this all the time to capture the GPS coordinates for my travel locations.  Works great.

### 5/5 — Excellent GPS location app

*2015-04-26*

The app show the gps co-ords when you centre the cross-hairs on a map location. This works well!

What would be REALLY good is if the app could tie into Google or Apple maps in some way to display the gps co-ords of an address.

### 1/5 — Used to love this app. But it always freezes in iOS 14

*2021-03-23*

Hi! This app crashes whenever I want to share my location via email or text. Started after had to move to iOS 14. I can no longer choose who I want to share with and hit send them close app. I get weird message about plain text at the top and options are cut off.

I’m so distressed. It is the ONLY one that does everything I need: display digital GPS coordinates in editable form for later copy/paste, create a Google maps link, AND BEDT OF ALL include screenshot with satellite aerial photo so I know where I was! I use this for wildlife species mapping

### 1/5 — Gps location

*2020-04-07*

I have the latest 12.4.6 IOS 
This app doesn't work on it.
You'll be anywhere but here

### 1/5 — Broken

*2017-07-18*

Not picking up coordinates. Shows me off the coast of Africa, as one of the other reviews noted. This app has only one function, and it doesn't work. Time to delete it, I guess

### 1/5 — Does not find location

*2017-06-07*

Hitting the find location icon causes this app to supposedly locate me in the ocean off the west coast of Africa. I am in the USA.  Until the app can successfully accomplish its basic function, just one star. I will plan to rerate when the app is updated.

### 1/5 — Innacurate

*2016-11-25, version 1.10*

This app does not work for me (iPhone 7 iOS 10.1.2). 

I have three other apps that include GPS. all of these show the same, correct, location. This GPS location app is quite a ways off in the numbers that it shows, and the crosshairs are over 1000 miles off.

### 1/5 — Geegeeegeeeeeee

*2016-01-27*

Absolute nonsense . Rip off. U can't even search location and stick to it. The app interface is all confusing . Pissing

### 1/5 — Awful

*2015-10-03, version 1.10*

If I could give this a 0 I would.  Can't put in a location.  I wasted money.

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2015-05-13*

Haven't used this for a while but just recently having needed to use it it hasn't worked. Would like an update?

### 1/5 — Does Not Work

*2014-12-17, version 1.10*

I have tried everything to get it to center on my place in the west including using the crosshairs tool but it always gives me coordinates for New York. Would be cool if it worked but it doesn't.

### 1/5 — Gps

*2014-12-09, version 1.10*

I need instructions on how to use!!! The cross hair does not show my current location??? Read instructions, but still a waste of my money!!!!

### 5/5 — Absolutely must-have app

*2025-07-28*

Screenshot your coordinates & altitude when at a special location! FANTASTIC!

### 5/5 — Very versatile.

*2023-12-09*

I use GPS for all sorts of things including navigation when I am piloting my plane. I have depended on it for years. It is very straightforward and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Dumb and Dumber won’t get lost

*2022-09-08*

This great app is so easy to use

### 5/5 — Works

*2021-01-08*

It does what is says it will do. I use it to set up my Telescope. Excellent.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2018-08-02*

Great little jewel! Whether you are traveling or not, this navigator is just fun. Very accurate, smooth, and fast. Highly recommended and extremely useful.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2018-04-10*

Very simple to use. Strait to the point. I use it often to share the location of a meeting spot that is not necessarily an address. Like in the woods or in a lake somewhere for kayaking. 
Very happy with it.

### 5/5 — Highly recommended

*2017-02-07*

My 'go-to' app when needing to share or save a location... with ANY device!

Sharing - Regardless of what your friend is using to navigate - Google, Apple, Waze, etc. - this app gives you the grid in 4 different formats.

TIP - When sharing, most apps prefer the second listed option (Degree Minutes).

### 5/5 — GPS

*2016-10-24*

Love the app, works very well, in the high country of the rockies in Canada, on elk an deer hunting trips. As long as you have a generator to keep the battery up. Need to get a solar charger. Still good ap.

### 5/5 — Gps

*2016-10-03, version 1.10*

Works they way you imagine it is supposed to...priceless thank you for having common sense

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2016-03-18, version 1.10*

Gives the location whenever I need it while doing field work.
