There are certain features I like about this app, mainly the ability to snap a photo and append my coordinates and elevation to the picture. However, the longitude is way off. The degree is correct, but mins & secs are off by an hr (60 mins) - u have to subtract the sum of mins and secs from 3600, then divide by 60 to get the mins, multiply the remainder by 60 to get secs. If this gets fixed, I'd give it more stars and consider purchasing the app. As it is right now, it's not worth buying.

The more I use this app the more I discover how far off the free version is. Hundreds of feet, not a few feet, not 20 or 30, nearly 500 at this one place and putting me under sea level in places I know I am not. And they want me too spend money for the pro version...I am to trust it will be more accurate? Right. NOT.

Only gives compass bearing on 8 point rose not in degrees. Altitude gave me 4 different readings....all negative numbers. (I'm at 10 ft above sea level) have to upgrade to pro to correct.

At sea level it reads as zero feet, which is good. But after that it guesses. At a survey point further up the hill this app read 715 feet and the survey point 427. That is poor. Then the message pops up saying there is a correction factor you can only get by going 'Pro'. There is a compass and weather indicator which is OK and saves this app from zero star rating. I am now going to uninstall.

The free version contains an inaccurate compass and a useless altimeter (it says 2700m instead of 500m). It can be used only to evaluate the user interface.
