About this app

Developer Description

A modern way of orienteering training using GPS.

Get ready to revolutionize your orienteering experience with GPS Orienteering!

GPS Orienteering allows you to create and run orienteering courses, as well as participate in events. It uses the GPS in your phone to track your progress during the race and automatically punch at virtual control points, eliminating the need for physical orienteering flags. After completing the race, you can view and compare your result and track with other participants.

Premium users have the additional ability to create multiple courses and events for other users to participate in with four different course types to choose from - classic orienteering, free order orienteering, rogaining, and scatter orienteering. Premium also gives you the ability to follow runners on the map in real-time with the LiveTrack feature, analyze results by viewing and replaying tracks on the map and voice assistance giving you spoken messages when you punch, drift from straight course and more. You can also upload your track to Strava from the app.

The app will use your location in the background when you run a race to punch at control points and record your track. This is also needed if you select to share your position during a race with the LiveTrack feature. Note that this foreground service for location (location permisson) is only used when you run a race and is turned off when the race is completed or aborted.

Say goodbye to the hassle of setting up physical control points and join the GPS Orienteering community today!

Best Orienteering app on Play Store. Easy to create and adjust courses and upload to secure server. Being able to compare results and tracks easily by itself is a great feature and the app can do a lot more. Developer is very responsive to support and improvements.

Tried this out during a club event on Sunday on an old street/park map. Worked really well. Had to use the manual punch once where the map was dodgy. Calibrating the map was easy. Minor quibbles are: took a moment to work out how/where to put map jpeg file (not in help as yet) and hard to locate control circles precisely (hidden under finger). Neither big issues and can see lots of use for training, control set up and low key events. Well worthwhile!

Works well but annoying that it forces landscape for map view. Support for Android wear would be nice as well.

I bought this to set up a course for the boyscout it does not do what it says. Do not waste your money. It would not let me create points. I do not believe it even uses the gps it is a scam.
