What's New in pocketGPS
1.3
January 23, 2018
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. Added a Dashcam option to the GPS Data screen. The Dashcam allows you to record a video of your journey with an overlay showing your current location, speed and altitude. This option requires access to your camera and photo library. Added a traditional 32 point compass to the Instruments menu. Compass direction is given in one of the 32 points of the compass as opposed to bearing. Changed the Map display option in routes to show the route as a set of great circle legs. Also added the ability to show and set the current wind direction as a large yellow arrow. Fixed a bug which caused the app to terminate when trying to switch on application logging. In the Track log Summary added the ability to output a CSV file of the current log. In the Raw data table added the ability to goto end and start of file. In All the graphing options added the double tap icon and cursor pointer to look at the graph data in finer detail. Added a number of small bug fixes and optimisations.
