Description
This app lets you measure the point-to-point (great-circle) distance between two or more waypoints on a map or measure the surface area defined by a polygon having three or more points as its corners.
It uses online maps so it needs an internet connection.
Tap and hold to set a new waypoint, tap the options icon to read the manual or to open the settings view to change the map type or the measuring unit. You can choose between (kilo)meters, feet/yards/miles and nautical miles. The options menu also lets you choose to go to the Save/Restore view.
Tap the calculated measurement at the bottom of the map to switch between feet/yards/miles or meters/hectometers/kilometers.

Ratings and Reviews
A good tool, shame about the dodgy adverts.
The tool is a great one to use and useful for many applications.
However I wish the proprietors would avoid posting any
unscrupulous adverts such as the one with Harry and Meghan backing a bit coin outfit. Amongst all they have done, right or wrong they definitely wouldn’t endorse such a company that leads
the desperate into shark infested waters.
If tempted please read the web page of Martin Lewis on the bit coin subject.
Stick to planning your next walk by using this app. Much better !
Suggestions
I like this app a lot. Especially good for deciding how far to sail in one day. A couple of things which I would like to see for 5 stars though are:
1. Display of distance of each leg, waypoint to waypoint, not just to a waypoint from the start (although this is also useful)
2. Ability to save or export tracks so alternative routes can be more easily compared. This has now been provided and is much appreciated.
Great App
I use it a lot for both viewing local area and planning hiking/walking route. Like it a lot
