GPS Averaging

I use this app for getting extremely precise coordinates when hiding geocaches and I always get good feedback about my coordinates. The app is also easy to use, detailed, and provides coordinates in DDM format, the standard for Geocaching. The only thing I wish would change is the way the existing coordinates are sorted. Currently, the newest coordinates are stored at the very bottom of the list, but when you have over 50 different coordinates stored it becomes a little annoying to scroll down to the bottom every time.

App does what it is designed to do very well. I get nice accurate coordinate readings thanks to this app. It could use 1 major quality of life improvement. Recorded waypoints should be listed newest first. Right now I have to scroll past my entire waypoint history to see the most recent readings.

No easy way to delete points. Even points with same name are kept.

This is exactly what I was looking for an actually very surprised I found an app like this.I needed to get a better coordinate on a stationary position over time. My RTK position verified that it was a pretty good position in the end… and yes the average is likely going to be a certain distance from your position depending on your GPS accuracy. That would not be any fault of the app but just on the very nature of GPS. Works well and then it definitely did not crash on me after five minutes of logging. Thank you for the app

Helps me to get accurate coordinates for hiding geocaches or for getting accurate updated coordinates for others. Nice feature set. Easy to use. Allows naming readings. Saving them. Series averaging. Worth the money. No complaints.

I love this app! I’ve used it to hide over 200 caches. I start the averaging and lay the phone on the ground or host of my new hiding spot. I like to get 30-50 averages which happens quickly. When I press stop it prompts for a name. I add the name of the new cache and then touch the share icon and email it to myself. When I get home I copy and paste the coords into the website to list the hide and it’s super fast! Must have app.

The Averaging works just fine. as a retired engineer like the unrounded numbers. Using the unrounded numbers to “LOOK CLOSE” to see what the iPad 7 is doing. The iPad GPS receiver is as good as expected. Thanks for the good work.

Could not find way to have units in metric system. Want to get average as long as 3-5 minutes but either freezes or exit when it reaches 250 or more samples.

In limited testing, the app seems to work as advertised, but the interface is extremely laggy- it seems to process at most one touch event per second while averaging, and when I tried to figure out how the +/- buttons for outlier exclusion worked, the app very quickly became unusable. Also, it does not record altitude, making it useless for my use case (mapping). I am now seeking a refund.

Nice simple application that looks like it might be very useful once the kinks are worked out. Testing it on a 4S running 9.2.1 does not give good results. Even as the only application running it does not update or behave correctly. Sometimes the "dots" for the GPS coordinates do not mark or display when the app is misbehaving even though the coordicnates are changing. (Sometimes it is not a bug and just the fact that the samples are showing exactly the same location.) Many times after changing to any other menu selections, the GPS "Start" button will not appear. Sometimes none of the button/icon selections will work. (-/+, Menu, Start GPS Averaging, etc...) Text on the averaging page show /+-7xx .... but no indication of what that is. Forcing the app to close and then restarting and going directly to the desired application function will usually get it to work correctly for only one instance. Suggestions: The coordinate format needs to have options for display format so manual conversion is not required between Decimal Degrees, DMS, GPS, etc... iOS file exports would be helpful. Allowing the App to continue running for XX minutes and then stopping with an average. Or allow a setting for say XXX samples then stop. Or you could set an accuracy target of < xx.x feet/meters and then it would stop if the accuracy has not improved more than x.x meter/feet in x minutes. There is support for a landscape format map, but the application does not rotate to match the landscape map. This would be helpful. I would really give this only 1 or 2 stars because of the bugs, but this is an old version and the developers web site says there is a v2.0.2 under review by Apple. Hopefully this will fix many of these issues as the developer indicated. If so this would be a 4-5 star app.
