Read your grid. Build your field plan. 10digit brings MGRS navigation, offline maps, overlays and terrain planning into a clear field interface on iPhone and iPad. READ YOUR COORDINATES Use MGRS, UTM, or latitude and longitude alongside heading, altitude, speed, and reported horizontal accuracy. Coordinate precision and GPS accuracy are different; check the accuracy reading when using a position. PREPARE OFFLINE MAPS Download supported map regions before heading out. Keep saved maps, waypoints, and recorded tracks together when cell coverage is unavailable. Offline map use requires completing the relevant download in advance. BUILD AND SHARE YOUR PLAN Save waypoints, organize them into overlays, navigate by bearing and distance, and record your route. Import supported files and share locations with others. Pro adds live Team Overlays and KML, GeoJSON and encrypted layer exports. EXPLORE THE TERRAIN Pro terrain line of sight compares two points and shows visible and masked sections on an elevation profile. Snap to saved waypoints and share profile graphics. Terrain estimates are planning aids; they do not account for every building, tree or field condition. CONFIGURE YOUR TAK CONNECTION Pro includes experimental Cursor-on-Target networking and TAK Server connection settings, with server-package import. Choose when to connect and whether to broadcast your position. Deploy a temporary, private, cloud-hosted TAK server for exercises on demand. USE IT IN THE FIELD A large coordinate readout and a red-on-black night mode keep the interface easy to read in different conditions. CHOOSE WHAT YOU SHARE Navigation does not require a personal sign-up. Online maps request map tiles. Optional Team Overlay and TAK features send data when you choose to use them. Usage analytics are optional and can be controlled in Settings. OPTIONAL ONE-TIME PRO UPGRADE Start with core navigation and up to three offline map regions. Pro removes the region limit and adds the advanced sharing, terrain and planning tools shown in the app. Pro is a one-time purchase, with no subscription. Map availability and downloaded coverage depend on the selected source. GPS reception, battery life, and the accuracy reported by your device affect field use.

MilGPS+ — Tactical Map and Military-Grade GPS Navigation When the road ends and the signal dies, MilGPS+ keeps you oriented. MilGPS+ turns your iPhone into a complete tactical field navigation system, built from the ground up for soldiers, reconnaissance and patrol teams, hunters, off-road crews, mountaineers, survivalists, search and rescue units, and every professional who has to move through remote terrain with absolute precision. No network. No signal. No excuses. Most navigation apps stop working the moment you leave the city. MilGPS+ is the opposite: it is engineered to do its best work exactly where everything else fails — deep in the field, off-grid, and offline. TACTICAL CAPABILITIES Mission-Grade Positioning Get a real-time fix on your exact position with live grid coordinates in WGS84 (LAT/LON) and UTM. Read your location like a paper map sheet — fast, accurate and field-ready. Tap to copy or share any coordinate in seconds for a clean, unambiguous position report. Full Offline Operation Pre-load and cache your entire area of operations before you deploy, then navigate completely offline. Download map regions while you still have a connection and carry them into the field with zero dependence on cellular coverage or Wi-Fi. No signal, no network, no compromise — built for the field, not the office. Waypoints and Target Marking Mark targets, rally points, observation posts, caches and objectives directly on the map. Organize them into folders, color-code them, and get instant range and bearing to any point. Share a waypoint with your team in a single tap. Track Recording and Route Planning Record every movement as a high-detail track, plan ingress and egress routes in advance, and review your patrol afterward. Distance, elevation and time are logged automatically, so you always know where you have been and how to get back. Tactical Compass and Bearing A built-in compass with live target heading lets you move by dead reckoning and hold a precise bearing across any terrain, even when GPS is degraded or you need a backup. Area and Distance Recon Measure distances and areas of interest directly on the map. Estimate sectors, perimeters and ranges for rapid field assessment and planning. Field Weather Intel Check terrain and weather conditions before you move out, so you can plan around visibility, light and ground conditions. Professional Geospatial Formats Import and export the formats real operators and GIS professionals use: Vector: GPX, KML, KMZ, GeoJSON Raster and map tiles: GeoTIFF, MBTiles, GeoPDF Database: GeoPackage (.gpkg) Open files straight from Mail, Messages or the Files app, layer them over your map, and export your own data to share with command or teammates. Full interoperability with military and professional mapping workflows. Mission Tools and Briefing On-map drawing, field notes and tactical planning tools let you sketch a plan, annotate the ground, and build a clean briefing, then share it with your unit. Map Export and Sharing Generate a clean tactical map output, including PDF, of your operating area, waypoints and routes, and share it through any channel on your device. 30+ Languages A fully localized interface, ready for international teams and operations anywhere in the world.
