Can’t access Settings

I’ve used this app for years with no problem now I have an iPhone and I can’t access setting to change the units. This appears to have been a problem for several years. Can you fix the problem please

No support for UTM and MGRS

On Android, UTM and MGRS coordinates are supported, but for some reason not on iPhone. I thought it was because the app was new on iPhone, but it’s been that way for a long time now. Emergency services generally use UTM.

Don't buy it if you need UTM formatting.

The free version on Android allows UTM location formatting, but the paid version on iOS does not.

Mal funcionamento

Não consigo configurar no iPhone

A waste of time and money!

There is no comparison in function to the android app of the same name. While I used to see the satellite data on my Samsung on an iPhone I just see information that can be gleaned from standard iPhoneOS apps. A waste of money and a refund has been requested.

What are the included tools in the app?
