gpsPrime
Alright! It is finally here. gpsPrime now has full Map Kit support providing much better mapping and performance. We have also added path tracking so you can record your adventure and later send it to a friend or yourself in email. It also now has support for the magnetic compass available on the iPhone 3GS.
**********
And, to celebrate the new release, we are temporarily reducing the price of gpsPrime and it's little cousin, gpsCompass. Get them both now at great low prices and get your navigation on!
**********
gpsPrime provides all the power of a handheld GPS device right on your iPhone 3G or 3GS. With gpsPrime you get access to all your GPS data (location, speed, altitude, etc.), full mapping functionality, tracking and waypoints, all in one low priced app.
Want to let a friend know where you are? Send them your current location as a Google Map link. If your friend has an iPhone or other web enabled cell phone, then can use their map to get right to you.
Regularly forget where you parked? No problem... Park your car, drop a Waypoint on your map. Later, use this waypoint to find exactly where you left your car.
Pilot small aircraft? You will appreciate that the gpsPrime detects the increased speed and adjusts the speedometers top speed.
Extensive customization to make it work for you. Want to use gpsPrime on your boat, just set your preferences to Nautical? Traveling, set your units to Metric. Like to use the Dashboard view in your car, customize the appearance to match your car's dashboard lighting color.
COMPASS
Displays a GPS compass (requires movement, not magnetic) and customizable GPS data fields, so you can pick the information you want displayed.
DASHBOARD
Provides a speedometer and common GPS data fields for road travel, such as Odometer, Trip Timer, Direction, Heading, Average Speed, etc.
MAP
Displays your current location and allows you to zoom and pan the map to see what is around you. You have access to Road, Satellite, Hybrid and Topographic maps. You can also add waypoints or start/stop tracking.
WAYPOINTS
View, manage or navigate to your recorded waypoints.
HOT or COLD
When navigating to a waypoint, Hot/Cold lets you know if you are getting closer or farther away. If you have your speaker on, it even gives an audible indicator.
NOTIFICATION
Email your current GPS coordinates, location, and/or waypoints. Waypoints are sent as enclosed GPX files.
Please note:
1. The Compass is a GPS compass and requires movement to be able to determine direction. The faster your movement, the more accurate the compass will be.
2. When first entering the Map tab, the map takes a little time to load from the internet. Please be patient. Depending on your connection, it could take 30 seconds to a minute (or longer).
