Brilliant
Super fast location device that just works. Picks up even in aeroplane mode so even with a low battery it can keep going. Managed to conclude a trip with 10% battery so the app itself is frugal with battery. Can't rate it highly enough
Excellent
Incredibly useful app for anyone involved in natural history and gathering records for moth/butterfly/bird/vegetation etc atlases because it tells you what tetrad you are in.
Simple yet brilliant
I usually trust my map-reading skills, but there are times when you just need some reassurance; a second opinion that you are where you think you are! Having this on my watch is fantastic. No more fiddling around with gloves, pockets and phone passwords to get a proper OS grid reference. Other info is a bonus. Thank you!!

A must have app for walkers, and climbers alike.
Download this app, ensure that’s it’s on your phone before you go out into the wilds, and hope that it remains an unused, waste of space on your phone.
The app does exactly what it says on the tin. It gives you your location, in a number of formats. From grid reference, to Lat & Lan and more besides. And it does not require a mobile signal to work. Just GPS.
When you need it, it could be a life saver.

Excellent with a paper map
I am a Viewranger user as well as having a high end Garmin GPS. However I always carry a paper map and this app is really good for relating its gps position to your position on a paper map. This is down to the clever and unique (as far as I know) graphic representation of the relevant grid. OK, you could argue that it would be better with an OS map layer under the graphic but that would mean buying or subscribing to digital OS maps. The thing for me is that it encourages me to use the paper map and helps me read grid references more easily.
Another great feature is that you can see the difference between grid, true and magnetic north. It would be good perhaps if you could also see grid magnetic angle without having to work it out but maybe in a future update?
All in all a clever and effective app for anyone from a casual user to a professional.
