Useless app
Mapped all of our planes 60 degrees to the East wrong and had some weird bug with the colours. Not worth the $5, pretty much a scam
A must have for geologists
Simple and efficient alternative to bringing a bruntun with you in the field. This one doesn't cost 300$. Just get it.
Crash and burn
Crashed every 5 minutes and lost all the data. Not acceptable. iPhone 5.
Work well
Fast and efficient, I like it a lot!
Great app!
Easy to use, easy to compile readings, even gives stereonet projections of your acquired readings, definitely would recommend to any geologist out there.
Great!
If you do field work this app is splendid. Does all the work of a bunting compass and makes your rosé diagrams and stereo nets. This is the future.
Small update. Significant difference
With the addition of the free form text field and the option to email data and diagrams out, this has truly become a stand alone application for rock joint mapping. Was good before. Now it is perfect.
please make it work on ios5

A very well tool for geologist and students!
iPad2
This app would be REALLY cool on an iPad2

This is by far the best iPhone application I own - GREAT WORK! finally something that is actually useful for my day job. Thanks :-)
Like it, here's what I need to love it
So basically, the fact that this app plots measurements on a stereonet made me decide on it out of the three other strike/dip apps
DEVELOPER: are you aware searching strike and dip or brunton in the app store does NOT bring this app in the search results? ...add some keywords or add to the title...
Requests: please have an option to use strike and dip rather than bearing in the recorded data (and as the prominent readout) as well as an option for azimuth vs quadrant.
*** a map view with data strike and dips overlaid would rock! Not to mention you would be the first app to have these!
In the settings you should have a 'classic' mode that works more like a real brunton utilizing 2 steps... For the skeptical. While I'm at it you should include far better instructions on the actual logistics of taking measurements with your app, it left me doing tests just to see if I am taking measurements with it correctly.
An easy way to share these would rock too...
****update****
Developer, please address some of my issues? Thanks

Well done. Excellent app. If you can add email feature to send the data straightway, it would be perfect.
The theory is great but...
The lack of stability of the iPhone compass means your tilt and heading never steady and fluctuate wildy over 10's of degrees constantly. Can have no certainty of the readings, therefore far too inaccurate for real work. Probably only good to get rough idea which you can get from your compass clino anyway. And the compass clino needle doesn't wander, doesn't mind when you drop it and takes into account mag dec.
Only use for this is to impress your geologist friends with the stereographic projection cos it looks cool and they don't know it's completely inaccurate.
Definitely not worth paying money for unless they can fix the stability issues.

Manual entry
I have to agree with the other reviewer. The app would be much more useful if data could be entered manually. That would sure beat carrying a net a tracing paper, plus it would cut out any human error in plotting. Otherwise this is a great app! Keep up the good work!
Fantastic App- just one change pls.
This app is my dream come true! Only thing is, I would prefer to to use my Brunton for measurements and have the ability to enter them into the app manually. The best part of this app is that you don't have to drag tracing paper into the field with you, and while the app takes measurements, I just don't think they would be as accurate as a Brunton. If you add the option to have the ability to manually enter data points, I would then say it is a 5-star app! Granted- you can upload the data onto your PC and change the points to your own measurements, but then what would be the point of the app?
