1. Land Nav Assistant accepts MGRS (Military Grid) or Latitude / Longitude coordinates and visually navigates you to each point.
2. Choose to display your locations as MGRS 10-digit, MGRS 8-digit, or LatLon Decimal.
3. Available Input: 8 digit MGRS, 10 digit MGRS, Lat/Lon decimal, Lat/Lon dms, and map input.
4. Plan your course by ordering points, or use the course optimization tool which will help you calculate the shortest path possible!
5. Satellite, Terrain, Road, and basic Topographic maps show you, your locations, and lets you enter in new ones.
6. Land Navigation is a valuable skill, and should be mastered before using this application.

1. Thank me later 😁I have used this app for years now and anytime I need grid locations and great pictures of locations, using it as a back up nav source when doing refresher land navigation, or even just getting some directional bearing on a super cloudy day this app is my go to! I will never not have it on my phone or my spouses phone.Seems like it could be a good app but the magnetic compass does not work and the company has not responded to two emails asking for help.
2. The magnetic compass does work in other apps on this phone.Compass is frozen.
3. A+ guys, I would be interested if there are more map types available?I've read many reviews where people say that the compass doesn't work sometimes.
4. What else can I do to make the compass work?I tried it and it had no idea where I was.
5. If it had this feature i believe this app would be the only app worth using 100%If you like to track distances, drop pins or check waypoints while walking in the woods this is the best 2 bucks your ever gonna spend.
6. I downloaded other apps and the compass for them functions on my phone.
7. If th e compass worked, this would be a five-star app.This app is great.
8. For my purposes as a trainer, it's more efficient than burning through AAA batteries on a Fortrex every day and a half, and it's instantly available as soon as I open the app if I forget to fire it up before I need to call of a grid.
9. It worked liked a charm and used it to help teach classes and confirm pace counts and land nav points, etc.
10. I ride an ATV for work and have to navigate trails for military training.
11. Your points and history will be retained, but this will give the compass a hard reset.
