### 2/5 — Didn’t get gps location service pro free as promised

*2021-02-15, version 3.8.10*

Yesterday downloaded gps Pacific location app from app advice. Free today only abd you get pro version. Today I opened app andbitvtells me the pro version is now $1.99. Not good business. Very disappointed with company. If you offer something ( pro version) for fred stick to your word

Further response to your reply that I did not download app while free. That is false. I did download in timely manor. 
Appreciate your attempt to try and make it my fault. It was not!!

### 2/5 — Not impressed

*2021-02-12, version 3.8.10*

Allowed me to rearrange dashboard item once. Now it doesn't work at all.

### 4/5 — Great app for GPS-style basics

*2020-04-18, version 3.8.1*

This app is good for reporting numbers like latitude and longitude; and its widgets can get some of them to the Clipboard as text and numbers.  The main app can also report GPS accuracy, altitude, barometric pressure, and a GPS-style heading, all in one place.  It can report the current street address, too, if the app has access to the Internet.

My favorite feature is the ability to warm up the iPhone’s GPS receiver until it’s ready to use.  This can even be done with a long press of the app icon because its pop-up menu contains the GPS Movement widget.  If I can open a map-centric program like Maps or FindMy before the GPS goes back to sleep, the position and maps for those programs don’t jump around so much when they start.

### 1/5 — Non-functional

*2017-04-07, version 2.3.2*

The free version opens and nothing happens other than it asking for location access. After that there is nothing but a light blue screen with a few menu item, none of which does a thing.  I'd never touch the pro version if the free one isn't working.

A complete waste of time.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2016-12-01, version 2.2.3*

Happy to have it.

### 4/5 — One Problem

*2016-10-20, version 2.2*

The my Dashboard widget doesn't work, please fix it, thanks!!!!

### 5/5 — Great widgets

*2016-07-29, version 2.1.2*

Awesome app with great widgets

### 5/5 — A+ now

*2016-03-07, version 2.0.5*

After a few updates this app now excels in giving you all the info with labels of location, speed, direction, altitude, atmospheric pressure, etc all on one screen.

### 1/5 — Interferes with Battery Indicator

*2016-02-20, version 2.0.4*

Started experiencing erroneous battery charge reports. Removed this crap program, problem went away. 

Useless.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2016-01-22, version 2.0*

Old version was great. New version is garbage. Deleted.
