Field Navigator
Save field data, borders and guidance lines, mark obstacles and create a database of your requirement. With Field Navigator Steering Assistance driving to parallel tracks is much easier, reducing the workload, size of untreated areas and avoiding overlaps.
Field Navigator includes the use of Straight AB parallel lines while navigating in the field.
This app is perfect for large and small farm owners, practitioners, learners and professionals of Precision Agriculture.
❖ RECOMMENDATIONS
If built-in GPS receiver is not accurate enough, the connection of external Bluetooth GPS receiver is advised, specifically GARMIN GLO, which gives the accuracy of 0.3 m – tried and tested by ourselves.
* The app perfectly works with a GARMIN GLO and GARMIN GLO 2 external GPS antennas.
❖ FEATURES
➜ Navigate in parallel lines while driving in the field
➜ Navigate and create tracks on Google Maps in satellite view
➜ Create fields database by using GPS or manually
➜ Measure field area and perimeter by using GPS or manually by selecting points on the map
➜ Import field data in *.shp / *.kml formats
➜ Export field data in *.kml format
➜ Share field data
❖ SOON:
➜ AB Curve
➜ Headland
➜ Obstacle positions
➜ Farming activities database
➜ Driving assistance in 3D mode without maps
➜ Night mode for farming at night time
❖ HOW TO USE:
1. To start parallel driving you have to create a field (irregular hexagon icon at top right corner)
2. Choose implement width and parallel navigation lines creating mode
3. Click "Start" and further steps will be displayed on the top navigation panel

Good little app. Still using the free version as it does most of what I require. Allow curves and I will be paying for the Premium version... Clear and easy to read in use on a tractor and quite intuitive... which is rare. 😉 I use a Garmin Glo for a better level of accuracy, as the phone or tablet GPS only is not really accurate enough for fertiliser spreading. The app is not suitable without Egnos or RTK for spraying purposes. Would love to see a basic GIS mapping option and Records.
Excellent app. Still learning more as I go has lots of good features. Has good accuracy with phone gps in a Motorola but will buy an external gps soon to improve accuracy a little. Works amazing spraying a spreading pasture and hay fields always within the 1 feet as I use for my overlap. If you have had your phones gps turned off turn it on for a few minutes before begining to get a good results.
all right, after using it for a bit, I was wondering why it didn't match any of my measuring wheel calcs that i walked around the fields with. it understated surface area by over 15% in some fields, up to 30% in the steepest one I have. Reason is, It doesn't do a 3d calculation of surface area that includes elevations! So basically just a rough calculation of flat surface areas. Makes a huge diff when spraying/planting... Maybe incorporate in next update? Thanks
like it. has some nice features that I don't even have on my purchased navigation system that costs several thousand dollars, like being able to see the field on satellite image and being able to mark in field boundaries manually without driving around the field. thanks for building this product!
first time using GPS guidance glad I went with a free app instead of shelling out for a budget light bar setup, I assume it does the same thing, and at first wasn't impressed cos trying to follow the arrows is hard,,,, but after going back to a visual aid primary and then the GPS as an aid on top of that, it's fantastic,
This app does a great job and is very useful for my field spraying. My only doing on it is I wish the tutorial was more descriptive or there was a really good video on how to set it up. I stumbled through it but figured it out. They recommend the Garmin GLO GPS bluetooth to use with it. Yes - it's worth it!
When i first dowloaded this app i woukd have given it a 10 out of 5. It was awesome. The reason i have rated it this low is now when i go to open it does not load and crashes. I have uninstalled, then re-booted phone, and re-installled. Works once and crashes. I will gladly give another chance and use if bugs can be sorted out - fingers crossed. Just to add, i have not removed yet. Hoping to see a fix before i have to take that action🤷♂️🤔
I bought this on a whim the other day while I was pulling an implement in a field and it's almost useless as a stand alone unit. It does work although the inital stated accuract is 9 meters, almost as big as the implement I was pulling. If the additional GPS external attenna gets the correction down to .3 meter that's the same as my 30 year old Trimble WASS batwing. Cheaper I guess but you think 30 years of technology advancement would get you more
Easy enough interface, easy to read descriptions and find what you're looking for. GPS mapping is off a bit but that could be my phone or service provider. Still figuring out ways to utilize field navigator and all of its applications.
Hello colleagues. The app works great. Has some very good features. I would indeed increase the accuracy of the signal with some external antenna. Please be good to suggest something that will bring the accuracy under 100sm. Good luck
Worked great for over a year using Garmin GLO2 as an antenna. Today it crashed 6 times in the field after lagging terribly. Works fine for a few minutes then closes. Uninstall, reinstall, same thing. Has there been an update?
Works really accurately plotting from Google earth images but driving around an area it was not as good. Could have been the low memory phone I was using which couldn't keep up.
Best app for field navigation i have tried. There is space for improvement, like adding tilt correction for positioning would be nice, also heading projection in turns would help as well.
works great for 20-30 mins than it slows to a crawl and finally locks up. once you restart it works again but all of your sprayed data is lost. I would appreciate help from the devoloper. using garmin glo.
Try guidance with a pop up ad on the screen ...causes skips in your field operations especially when spraying at 18 mph ... fixed ads indeeed...remove the ads I'd rather pay 5 bucks and have something useable..and where is the app to connect this to the garmin blutooth gps unit?
A great tool for farming. I mainly use it to indicate where I've fertilised rather than planning and following the calculated route. Probably due to the irregular and small size of my paddocks. Would benefit greatly from decent operating instructions. I would then award 5 stars.
Excellent application. I use it on a Samsung. I have a smartphone Blu Studio Mega LTE and it's said is not compatible. Any suggestions on running it on this device.
So far so good. Just installed it on my phone and ran around our one field close to our house to map an area and it surprisingly accurate for using the GPS on my phone alone. If this app proves to be helpful for our farm operations we will consider getting an add on bluetooth GPS unit.
just getting to grips with this app once I got learn how to use it there's one thing that you could do with ab straight is good got a Garmin gol 2 accuracy is down to 0.3 metres. one thing that would be very helpful is an ab Curve line is that coming anytime soon
Great app, simple to use and clutter free interface. Are there any plans for curve guidance based on the last pass? Not all fields have straight edges here! Would also be good if you didn't have to create the field first, as when working as a contractor, you may go to fields you haven't been to before and not have time to set it up.
