Pointy Navigation
Navigation
Free
New: Explore nearby travel guides with handpicked places, photos, search, and one-tap Pointy navigation from your current location.
Pointy is a simple walking compass for iPhone. Pick a place, then walk by direction and distance instead of following turn-by-turn instructions.
Search for a destination with Apple Maps, drop a pin, or choose a saved place. When you start walking, Pointy switches to a calm black-and-white arrow screen that points toward your destination and shows how far away it is.
Pointy is useful for walking across neighborhoods, finding a parked car, returning to favorite places, and staying oriented while still choosing your own streets.
Features:
• Apple Maps-style place search
• Drop-pin destinations
• Saved places and recent places
• Parked vehicle marker
• Full-screen arrow guidance
• Distance and simple direction text
• Local walk history
• No accounts, ads, analytics SDKs, tracking, or cloud sync
Pointy does not provide turn-by-turn directions. It gives you a direction and distance so you can choose your own route.
