I just found an app by Google called Waypoint Free. It is available for Android. Don't know if it is available for those evil iPhones or not. Since it's free I downloaded it and man, it's like having a surveyor in your back pocket. I get GPS info, Altitude info Compass info with heading and bearing, number of satellites it is working off of. This morning, sitting in my office, it is drawing from 16 of 20 birds. It has a Navigate, Radar, Plotter and Compass feature. You can control Coordinate types, Unit settings, Notifications, Color settings Location, Path, etc. I could have put this in just about any fishing or hunting category, but figured this was as good a place as any. The best part is, you can plot out your waypoints on Google Maps, and then cursor over each waypoint to pull up all of the info I just mentioned for each waypoint. This should be one heck of a simple app to use for stand location, favorite fishing spot, turkey roost....err......I mean blind locations, etc. etc. etc. Check it out. play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thedroiddev.waypoint |
