Great potential

I actually use apps like this in the field and test their accuracy for ranging targets for precision engagements on tactical operations in the law enforcement arena. I look for map ruler features to range targets based on GPS locks. It's never perfect but it has been getting better for operational applications. Yes milling with a mildot master is great, but I like having several options. This app has become my new range buddy (with the pin dropping feature that provides distance) so I can test it out and so far I'm pleased with it. Odds are I won't take my phone out for navigation unless I want to check my routes in a RON to transfer to my map, but this app no doubt simplifies it. So far the only changes I'd like to see is to trash the digi homescreen background or switch to a multicam - or provide optional camo for fun. Also the light button would be awesome if it activated the iPhone 4's LED. I'll be testing the app more, but I definitely recommend it.

Great app! Please add support for custom overlays!

I’ve been using this app weekly since it first came out and it’s still best in class after all this time! I definitely recommend this app for anyone needing to plot points with MGRS coordinates and elevation data.

The only thing I find lacking is the ability to draw custom line/polygon overlays on top of the map to delineate airspace or other area boundaries (something similar to the routes feature, but with the waypoint markers hidden and locked so they can’t be accidentally moved).

Please keep up the great work!

Solid but room for improvement

I’ve used this application for at least 7 years, it has been great but I believe it’s reached a critical static point. For years I recommended this application to cohorts and friends alike but I’ve ceased doing so for the following reasons. In my opinion, it would be a 5 star app I would again recommend to others if it had these items.

-Ability to download maps offline and store locally.

-Custom layover with geometric shapes and labeling.

-CarPlay Support.

These are two huge markets where this application lacks and I have to recommend ATAK or it’s civilian variant to others. I use ATAK currently however prior to that I used APASS and this application very frequently. But they fallen behind the power curve of relevancy.
