really useful on a walk when I need my husband to pick me up or when I am in wilder country I can let him know where I am. It is also useful if the footpath you are following disappears you can easily check your grid reference then check on the map exactly where you are and replan your route.

I have found this app very usefull and accurate when used with OS map to locate ones position. It does not require phone signal. I also carry a spare power bank to make sure phone will always have adequate battery life

Grid Ref UK and Ireland - Your GPS Grid Reference Finder App!

App will operate internationally, but the "Grid Reference" information is intended for use in the British Isles (UK and Republic of Ireland). App includes a graphical guide to the GB and Irish National Grids.

Ideally suited for use by walkers, hikers and outdoor sports enthusiasts. It is recommended that you should always carry a map and physical compass when on outdoor pursuits.

For best results, use in a flat position, not an upright position. Much like a traditional compass. Use in an open space, where possible, away from trees, buildings and sources of interference.

The screen can, optionally, be set to stay on, for continued on-screen display of Grid Reference information.

GridRef app compatible with handsets that feature GPS hardware. You may have to grant the app permission to use this information.
