Ratings and Reviews
Outstanding
The little Bad Elf and its app rated here have always done everything I’ve expected. Other than Bad Elf, the only better way to get GPS data is to buy a device - iPad in my case - costing hundreds more. ForeFlight and the various astronomy apps have limited utility without precise positioning. The BadElf app is at least a convenient trackline & elevation logger, and is also a functional mapping utility. APPLE: why are you pushing a rating for this app that is over *nine years* old? If I were the dev, I’d be furious.
App and device are rock solid
This app and my Bad Elf GPS Pro is wonderful. I like tracking my hikes for when I take photos. It’s helpful to sync the GPS data to the photos to show locations. Great when you want to remember that one spot and for populating various metadata. Device and app haven’t changed in years but they got it right the first time and doesn’t need to. Both are reliable and intuitive.
Bad Elf GPS Pro
I've had it for years. I keep it in my Jeep, connected to my LiFePO4 off grid power system. Folks who are in my Jeep are welcome to pair to it. It blows Apple GPS out of the water because no cell tower dependancy!
