Global Position

Turn your iPhone into a precision navigation instrument. Coordinates in six formats, a compass, an altimeter and a HUD speedometer — and the position readout keeps working with no signal at all.

COORDINATES IN EVERY FORMAT
Read your position instantly in:
- Latitude / Longitude in decimal degrees
- Degrees and decimal minutes (DD-MM)
- Degrees, minutes, seconds (DMS)
- Radians
- Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM)
- Military Grid Reference System (MGRS)
- Universal Polar Stereographic (UPS), for the Arctic and Antarctic where UTM and MGRS are undefined

Grid conversions run entirely on your device, so you get a full MGRS reference on a ridge with no bars.

NAVIGATION TOOLS
- Compass showing true and magnetic heading side by side
- Altimeter with a live trend graph of the last four minutes and a session maximum
- Speedometer in m/s, km/h, ft/s, mph or knots, with a rolling digit readout
- HUD mode — turn to landscape and the readout mirrors for windscreen reflection. The screen stays awake while you drive.
- G-force gauge with gravity excluded, so it reads real acceleration and braking
- Sunrise, sunset and length of day for wherever you are standing
- Flashlight, for reading a map after dark

KNOW HOW GOOD YOUR FIX IS
Most apps show a position and let you assume it is right. Global Position shows the measured accuracy of the current fix in metres, colour-coded Good, Fair or Poor — so you know whether to trust it before you act on it.

You also choose how hard the GPS works: High for navigation, Medium for everyday use, Low when battery matters more than metres.

LOCATION AND MAP
- Share your position and address to any app in one tap
