Description

Quickly see where and how high you are on earth. If you define a target you can see how far you still have to go and in which direction. It uses the a constant angle on a so called
rhumb line or loxodrome, so it is not necessary to constantly adjust your bearing (as you would have to on the shortest path on a orthodrome)

This application is intended for a quick lookup without tracking your position in the background over time in order to save battery power. It works completely offline and can be safely used while roaming.

More features:
- see the bearing to your target on a compass rose
- keep a list of your favorite targets
- switch between metric and imperial units
- open the map and email your position
- search the GeoNames database for targets
- display of the current speed

Basic but works well

I use this app often to check bearings from my current location to a fixed point. Works as advertised but would prefer better integration with Maps

Useless don't buy

This app is a total waste of time does exactly the same thing as included app which comes with the iPhone anyway. Poor accuracy and does not register altitude. Company has has a web based version of this app and it works, but this paid iPhnone app does not, does not pick up GPS sattelite's as advertised.
