App Detail » GPS - Way Home Finder App

What's New

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

By now opening "Navigon"-App does also work on iOS 9.3.x

App Description

Find every location with your iPhone

GPS Based Compass Navigation

Get the best out of your iPhones Compass and GPS!

Helps you to find a target location by following a smart arrow on the iPhone display.

The arrow shows the air-line to the target.
The display also shows your speed, your altitude and the distance to the target location.

It also has a built-in compass!

Why you should use it:
- find your target location on a walking-tour
- find your car (parking place)
- use this app for your Mountainbike or Hiking Trip (Altitude and Speed Display are built-in)
- find back to your hotel in holiday
- get the air-line distance to every location in the world
- find your way home even if you had one over the eight :)
- use this app to save the GPS coordinates of locations you like (unlimited!)
- use it as navigation tool if you are on a boat or on a fishing trip
- built in compass
- measure the distance between your location and every place on earth


Features:

- rotating map
- displays your speed (using the GPS, displayed if available)
- displays your altitude (using GPS)
- store an unlimited amount of target locations
- save the actual position as target location
- select a target location on the map
- prevent display from lock (configurable)
- choose the unit of length (kilometers/meters or miles/feet)
- shows the actual distance to your target location

Way Home Finder is perfect for offroad use, where apps like Navigon or Tom fail cause of the missing map material.

I was surprised that many ship - yacht - boat owners like this app! Thanks for your feedback!
