Cruise timber, not paperwork. Timber Cruiser is the field app for foresters, landowners and loggers: tally trees, map your plots and get board feet, stand value and sampling statistics on the spot — on iPhone, iPad and Mac. NEW IN 2.0 • Plots on a satellite map: walk the stand boundary, get area and perimeter, lay out a systematic plot grid and navigate to every plot with distance and bearing. • Sampling statistics: mean volume per acre, standard error, 95% confidence interval, sampling error and the number of plots you still need. • Regional cruising profiles: United States, Canada (West/East), Brazil (plantation and native forest) and metric — units, plot design, volume method and species set up in one tap. • More volume rules: Doyle, Scribner Decimal C, International 1/4", Roy and New Brunswick, plus form-factor, Schumacher-Hall and Honer equations. • Faster tally: voice entry on device, Bluetooth measuring instruments, CAP/girth input, defect, grade, tag and tree status. • Stand & stock table, diameter distribution and height–diameter curve. • New exports: Excel (XLSX), GeoJSON and KML for Google Earth, alongside PDF and CSV. • Redesigned for iPad and Mac, in 11 languages. BOARD FEET IN SECONDS Enter DBH and log count and see volume instantly. Set a price per species and watch tallied and whole-stand value update as you walk. PRISM AND FIXED-RADIUS PLOTS BAF prism plots, fixed-radius plots or 100% census. Per-acre trees, basal area, volume and value, expanded to the whole stand. FIELD TOOLS Clinometer and compass on iPhone, tree-height calculator, borderline-tree check, log scale and circumference-to-diameter converter. REPORTS YOUR CLIENTS CAN READ Multi-page PDF reports, CSV and Excel for analysis, GeoJSON and KML for GIS. BUILT FOR THE WOODS • Tally, calculations and reports work offline; satellite maps need a connection. • No account required. Your cruise data stays on your device. • High-contrast dark and light themes for bright sun and deep shade. Free trial available for Premium. Download and run your first cruise in under a minute.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GitFocus at none against Timber Cruiser's 4. Timber Cruiser's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
