• New name: Survey Compass. The app is the same camera HUD you already use: bearing, elevation angle, A–B height, the reading log and the coordinate converter all work as before. • Your saved readings and settings stay on the phone exactly as they were; nothing needs to be set up again.
MoreThank you for the kind words! Every reading you capture is already saved on the Log tab with its date and time, along with the bearing, angle and GPS position. The time stamp isn't part of the shared text yet; if that's what you need, let us know and we'll consider adding it.
