SkyPilot GPS Dashboard (formerly SkyWidgets) is a powerful application that leverages built-in GPS functionality to provide detailed insights into your location and movement. Originally designed for pilots, the app delivers data such as speed, altitude and heading.
Customizable Dashboard
The core feature of SkyPilot GPS Dashboard is its fully customizable dashboard, allowing users to tailor the interface to their specific needs. Users can add, remove, and rearrange dashboard elements to optimize their experience.
Location Dashboard Pro
For those seeking enhanced functionality, Location Dashboard Pro—available via in-app purchase—offers additional dashboard items, customizable home screen icons, and iCloud synchronization for dashboard configurations.
Included Widgets (Legacy, pre-iOS 14):
• Movement (Altitude, Speed, Heading, Latitude, Longitude)
• Address (Country, Locality, Sub-locality, ZIP Code, Street)
• Barometer (Pressure, Relative Altitude)
• GPS Signal Strength
Available Dashboard Items:
• Movement Data: Altitude, Speed, Heading, Compass Course
• Geolocation: Latitude, Longitude, Distance, Vertical & Horizontal Accuracy
• Environmental Data: Air Pressure
• Address Details: Country, Locality, Sub-locality, ZIP Code, Street, Ocean
Please note that certain dashboard items are exclusive to Location Dashboard Pro.
Battery Usage Notice
Continuous use of GPS in the background may significantly impact battery life. The app may utilize your location even when not actively in use, which can further contribute to battery consumption.

After a few updates this app now excels in giving you all the info with labels of location, speed, direction, altitude, atmospheric pressure, etc all on one screen.
Great app for GPS-style basics

This app is good for reporting numbers like latitude and longitude; and its widgets can get some of them to the Clipboard as text and numbers. The main app can also report GPS accuracy, altitude, barometric pressure, and a GPS-style heading, all in one place. It can report the current street address, too, if the app has access to the Internet.My favorite feature is the ability to warm up the iPhone’s GPS receiver until it’s ready to use. This can even be done with a long press of the app icon because its pop-up menu contains the GPS Movement widget. If I can open a map-centric program like Maps or FindMy before the GPS goes back to sleep, the position and maps for those programs don’t jump around so much when they start.
