Does not fit screen

Layouts to large for iPhone screen Can not see full compass

Waypoints app - the perfect app!!

I wanted a simple to use app and this is it! It’s easy to enter waypoint info, there’s a compass in the lower right corner so you know what direction you’re facing, there’s a large arrow pointing to the waypoint in the middle of the screen, the distance to the waypoint is shown and lastly the accuracy of the distance is shown in the upper right. I will never lose my car again whether at Disney World, the Indy 500 or at a large mall.

Simply marvellous

Very simple to use and navigate by. I wonder how I missed this smart little app. So handy for marking points off the beaten track, where normal phone maps do not work.

Easy improvement would be helpful

Button to save the current location and then give it a name.

Next, option to be able to enter lat/long in deg:min:sec

This app is great for sailboat racing.

Worthless

Just a pic of cardboard. No entry point. Nothing. Incomprensible garbage.

FAQ

What does Waypoint do?

Waypoint is a navigation app designed for outdoor use where internet connectivity is unreliable or unavailable. It allows you to save important locations and provides a straight-line direction and distance back to them without needing a data connection.

How does Waypoint work without internet?

The app utilizes your device's GPS capabilities to determine your location and provide directions. As long as you have a clear view of the sky, it can function independently of cellular or internet signals, making it ideal for remote areas.

What kind of locations can I save?

You can save any key locations relevant to your outdoor activities. This includes things like watering holes, tree stands, your car's parking spot, hidden caches, or any other point of interest you might want to return to later.

Is Waypoint free to use?

Yes, based on the provided information, the app is available for free. There are no mentions of in-app purchases or subscription fees.

What are the best conditions for using Waypoint?

For optimal accuracy, Waypoint is best used outdoors with a clear path to the sky. Obstructions like walls can lower GPS accuracy, and large metal objects nearby can interfere with the compass functionality.
