Never any issues with this app. Ive had it for years (in the Army) and never thought to rate it. Im using it now in the middle of the desert on a recon...not bad guys. Thanks a million to the app developers. You want more downloads...keep the military training areas and off road areas coming. Really helps...esp the MGRS inputs!

i use this quite a bit for work. For my purposes as a trainer, it's more efficient than burning through AAA batteries on a Fortrex every day and a half, and it's instantly available as soon as I open the app if I forget to fire it up before I need to call of a grid. A Fortrex takes time to boot up, and accquire satellites. I recently got a Samsung smart watch, but I can't move this app over to it. If there was an update that was compatible with smart watches, that would be even better.

What this app does, it does well. It has a simple, intuitive system for inputting and naving grids. I have had no issues creating simple routes, and the clear interface makes naving on the go a breeze. / Cons are, it is too basic. It lacks offline map support, and the only topo map it uses is open street, which is not a detailed terrain map. It doesn't support manually dropping way points via the map, you cannot browse the map to find the grid at a particular point, and there is not a grid system overlay

This app had so much potential. It worked liked a charm and used it to help teach classes and confirm pace counts and land nav points, etc. However, the compass is now frozen. I conducted all of calibration steps and none of it worked. I downloaded other apps and the compass for them functions on my phone. If th e compass worked, this would be a five-star app.

Nooooooo! What did you do!!? Last update has made this app so annoying to use. The compass is almost unusable as it goes from north to south constantly giving me no idea of which way im actually facing. Ive had to download a compass app to get the proper direction and it works fine. This app was perfect before now I'm constantly having to close app and re-open to make it work properly. Can you change it back to the original please. If it ain't broke don't fix it my guys.
