*** REQUIRES *** iCloud See your GPS coordinates anywhere in the world. Simple, clean interface that has received a lot of excellent customer feedback. Allows you to record and name waypoints as you go, wherever you are. Multiple waypoint lists, import/export to other apps as csv/kml and automatic iCloud sync. I wrote this app to be simple and effective. If you have an iPad or iPhone and want to know your latitude/longitude, please do give it a try and I hope you like it! (On wifi only iPad models location is not very accurate and requires wifi access point connection to work, please bear that in mind.)
