It works, takes some figuring out

No overall instructions just tool tip info. But given the SP starting point and its known coordinate, you plot it and plot the three given destination point flags on the map using the protractor. Then measure distances and angles with pencil tool and protractor. Convert to pace count and compass angle accounting for declination and grid convergence, then start walking. When reaching a flag, enter flag letters for that point and confirm. Do for all 3 and you’re complete. This app could use randomized magnetic declination, automatic entering of found flags in known points so you can warp there, and a cheat button to show current location on map. NVG night nav mode would be cool too.

Great game but a small problem: declination diagrams

I’m having great difficulty enlarging the declination diagram on my iPhone 11.

If this could be fixed or if someone knows a work around that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Take initiative

Figure out how to use the tools in the game and then practice your land nav. Do not dead reckon the whole time, it is too easy to hold azimuth, work on route planning, resection, intersection, soft reset points, and hard reset points. This app is great for that, remember, plot twice, walk once.
