The only navigator that works without roads, maps and the Internet. Сan be useful where there are no roads: in the wild forest, in the mountains, in the tundra, on the water, in the desert, in the air. Just tap the screen long to memorize your position. Everything!
When you need to return to this place, launch the navigator and select this memorized point as a target.
Put on your headphones and put your gadget in your pocket. Go straight in any direction. Follow the navigators voice prompts like "Straight", "Right face", "Left 20". The latter means that you need to change your course to the left by 20 degrees.
Episodically, the voice reports the remaining distance in a straight line to the target, the complete (not in a straight) path and the average speed since the last hint. When approaching the goal, the voice reports the full time on the way and complete path. The path traveled and the direction to the target are always visible on the screen (even without the Internet and a map).
With the Internet running, a map of the location is visible. It is convenient to find the desired places on the map and by long pressing the screen to remember them. For example, "Home", "Camp", "Sand Dune", "Tuna bite place", "Club harbor", "My car in the Super Bowl parking." Then, in nature, without the Internet and maps, you can choose from the list the desired entered place and the navigator will lead you there.
Conveniently in an unfamiliar city with the Internet turned on, remember the position of your hotel and the places to visit. Then the navigator will lead you to any of these places or to the hotel.
Navigator does not look at the roads and maps, it just leads you straight to the goal!
