### 5/5 — Excellent Location

*2016-08-23, version 1.1*

This App is perfect for locating anyone or anything.  It is a useful combination with the iPhone Compass.  The Compass will give the coordinates and the Location App will pin point to within 100 yards.  The rest is up to you. 

Of course Government Satellites can get you within 30 feet.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever!

*2013-09-10*

Accuracy was way off!!!
Decimal point accuracy would need to be added to work correctly.

### 4/5 — Simple and does the job

*2013-03-10, version 1.1*

If you know the coordinates, then punch them in and this will locate them on a satellite image. I agree with other reviewers that it would be nice to have street names listed, but that would add to the amount if data this app would need to drag around. The "Here" button shows your current coordinates which helps a lot with reference to entered coordinates.

### 2/5 — Needs improvement

*2012-09-24, version 1*

Great concept. Needs street view map as well as sat with road names, places etc. 

Hopefully developer will improve it

### 2/5 — Manny

*2012-09-06, version 1*

It dosent even tell you the name of the place

### 2/5 — It works but

*2012-07-10, version 1*

You'd think at LEAST there would be map view with labels AND/OR a "Home" button so I can find my own location and/or coordinates. As a matter of fact-- there should be an option to double tap the map at any point to get coordinates.

### 1/5 — Wrong!!

*2012-04-08, version 1*

There are so many things wrong with this app that I won't even start trying to list them.
