Cannot paste a grid reference

Absolutely pointless app, you cannot paste in a grid reference, it must be typed in 2 stages. Waste of money.

Response from developer

A grid reference can now be pasted in. Either individually into the two boxes, or a full grid reference can be pasted by pressing the paste button

A real time saver

Previously I have used what3words satellite view to locate parking area at start of walks and then sent it to Apple maps to navigate. Now I can just input OS grid reference into this app and bingo.
