Capture your world. Record GPS, motion, audio, pressure, LiDAR, and more — simultaneously — then export as JSON, CSV, or GPX.
ReferencePoint is a multi-sensor environmental data platform for iPhone. Whether you're a field researcher, engineer, developer, or just curious about the world around you, ReferencePoint captures synchronized readings from every available sensor in a single recording session.
RECORD EVERYTHING AT ONCE
Start a session and ReferencePoint simultaneously logs GPS coordinates, altitude, barometric pressure, magnetic field, motion, audio, pedometer, activity type, hardware motion, and system state — all timestamped and synchronized.
MODULES
Dashboard — Live readings from all sensors at a glance
Record — One-tap multi-sensor capture with drop-pin support
3D LiDAR — Spatial scanning and point cloud capture
Camera — Synchronized video alongside sensor data
AR — Augmented reality with live environmental context
GPS — Real-time location and altitude tracking
Audio — Waveform capture synchronized with all other sensors
Sensors — Pressure, magnetic field, and more
Intelligence — AI-powered session analysis
Map — Visualize recorded paths and pinned locations
History — Browse, compare, and export past sessions
COMPARE SESSIONS
Select any two recordings and compare them side by side — duration, sampling rate, total samples, and per-sensor counts with delta values highlighted.
EXPORT YOUR DATA
Every session exports in three formats: JSON for developers, CSV for spreadsheets and analysis tools, and GPX for mapping and navigation software.
PRIVACY FIRST
ReferencePoint does not collect, transmit, or share your data. Everything stays on your device. You decide what to capture and where it goes.
As an app developer, I’m someone who is aware of all of the sensors in my phone. Or at least that’s what I thought until I downloaded this app. Not only is this app super helpful in understanding what my device’s sensors are doing, it has already sparked 3 or 4 app ideas. I can see using this to debug apps but I’ve also just enjoyed tapping around to see what my phone is capable of. They’ve really packed a lot of toys into this tiny device. Same goes for this app! Great reference tool but also fun for exploration.

Thank you, TheTeeGees!
Very useful product

This is a fantastic app, I’ve been using it to map my house for wireless coverage planning and the lidar is so useful.
