Latest reviews of MapTool - GPS, Compass, Altitude, Speedometer, UTM, MGRS and Magnetic Declination app for iPhone and iPad
Very cool app. Now I can leave my compass at home when I go for a hike.
And its clean interface is great
I had been searching for this sort of app for quite some time but could never find one that was this accurate, easy to use & displayed so much information. Until I found this little gem. I love it.
Works well, saves battery and works off line if you browse the intended area of travel ahead of time. Distance measure is hard understand, but GPS and compass function works great
