Find Me is a simple GPS coordinates finder. Open the app and it reads your current latitude and longitude straight from your phone's GPS, in decimal degrees, on one clean screen. No sign-up, no account, no clutter. If you have ever needed to find your coordinates and read them out loud, text them to someone, or drop them into another app, this does exactly that and nothing you do not need. What Find Me does: - Shows your current GPS coordinates (latitude and longitude in decimal degrees) - Shows your street address from those coordinates - Copies your coordinates to the clipboard with one tap - Shares your location as text plus a map link - Opens your coordinates in your maps app for directions It works as a quick coordinate locator when you are hiking, meeting someone in a large parking lot, marking a spot to come back to, or reporting exactly where you are. Get your coordinates, copy them, share them, done. Find your GPS coordinates without digging through menus. The whole thing is one screen, so the numbers you came for are the first thing you see. Note: Find Me needs location permission to read GPS coordinates from your device. It does not track you in the background or store your location anywhere.

NearSite is the easiest way to keep track of the places that matter to you and instantly find which of them is closest to a specified location. Whether you're planning a trip across town, deciding which of your stores or offices to visit next, or just want to know which friend's house is the shortest drive away, NearSite gives you the answer in a tap. What You Can Do NearSite works with three kinds of inputs: a typed address (with autocomplete), supplied GPS coordinates, or your device's current location. Use any of them to: • Save a place and give it a name you'll remember. • Provide any location to instantly see which of your saved places is closest to it. • See results sorted by distance or alphabetically. • Switch between miles and kilometers. • Choose how many top results to show - from 1 to 100. Designed for Privacy NearSite was built with a focus on privacy. • Your saved addresses live only on your device. • Your current location, when you choose to use it, is used to calculate distances and is never stored or transmitted. • No analytics, no advertising, no third-party tracking. • No annoying accounts or sign-ups required. Accessibility NearSite was developed with accessibility in mind from the start. • VoiceOver works throughout. • Audio feedback is provided when your current location is captured. • Search results are announced when they appear. • Proper labels are used to facilitate rotor navigation.
