Saved route plans, point ordering and route cards. Report and tool drafts persist across tabs. Pinned dead-reckoning origins, saved estimates and explicit photo annotations.

Team traffic over Meshtastic is now sealed end to end. Create a team key, read the pairing code to your team, and everyone on it shares the same net. Pro.

No accounts, no tracking.

Traditional Chinese now displays correctly on devices set to Taiwan, Hong Kong or Macau. Gift links from redgridtactical.com now open directly in the app. Purchases that finish outside checkout, such as family approvals and promo codes, now unlock Pro reliably. Thank you to everyone who wrote in.

THE SURVIVAL UPDATE TRUE GRID NORTH Your compass, true north, and the grid north printed on your map are three different directions. Red Grid now computes the G-M angle at your position and converts between all three, per FM 3-25.26. Distance and bearing are solved on the WGS84 ellipsoid instead of a sphere. STORM WARNING Reads your device barometer on board and warns you when pressure is falling fast. Altitude corrected, so a climb is not mistaken for a front. Pro. DISTRESS SIGNALLING SOS, Morse, and the standard ground-to-air pattern on screen and flashlight, with battery aware timing. Free for everyone.
