Spyglass

Spyglass is an essential offline GPS app for outdoors and off-road navigation. Packed with tools it serves as binoculars, heads-up display, hi-tech compass with offline maps, gyrocompass, GPS receiver, waypoint tracker, speedometer, altimeter, Sun, Moon and Polaris star finder, gyro horizon, rangefinder, sextant, inclinometer, angular calculator and camera. It saves a custom location, navigates precisely to it later, shows it on maps and using augmented reality displays detailed GPS info, measures distances, sizes, angles, and does a lot more.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON ANDROID RELEASE

One of the best cross-country GPS navigation tools is now available on Android. Most features are implemented, however, some features available on other platforms are to be done. Also, instead of having multiple apps, on Android it is a single free app with a paid unlock of premium features. Be patient and report bugs, if any, directly via our email or the support page.

COMPASS & GYROCOMPASS

Accuracy improvement techniques, special compass modes and calibration methods available in Spyglass only make it a real instrument – the most advanced and accurate digital compass.

FINDER, TRACKER & AR NAVIGATION

Spyglass operates in 3D and uses augmented reality to show object positions, info and directions to them overlaid over camera or maps.

Save current position, add a point from maps, manually enter location coordinates.

Find the saved place later simply by following directional arrows.

Spyglass tracks your target and shows its info – distance, direction, azimuth, elevation and estimated time of arrival.

GPS, SPEEDOMETER & ALTIMETER

Find and track your location and get detailed GPS data – coordinates in dozens of formats, altitude, course, current, maximum and vertical speed, using imperial, metric, nautical and surveying units.

OFFLINE MAPS

See your and targets’ positions on maps using different map styles and alternative map providers – plan waypoints and measure distances. Offline maps optimized for retina displays are available for download.

TRACK POLARIS, SUN AND MOON & NAVIGATE BY STARS

Track positions of Polaris, Sun and Moon with arc second precision – use them as a reference to calibrate compass for maximum accuracy.

OPTICAL RANGEFINDER

Measure distances to objects in real time with a rangefinder reticle similar to sniper sights.

SEXTANT, ANGULAR CALCULATOR AND INCLINOMETER

Find out heights of objects and distances to them – measure visually and calculate dimensions and distances.

CAMERA

Take pictures overlaid with all available GPS, positional and directional data.

1.Not intuitive. I simply do not understand how it works. I can set a point, but that's all. None of the features in the video are in the menu. If this is supposed to be a puzzle, success! 2.when I arrived at the forest in my city, it said no maps available, although I loaded the app before my departure from home, thinking it would load the map for my region. But it didn't.

Performs some really cool augmented reality features that other apps don't have. I wish they had a way download maps for offline (rather than relying on the cache feature). Some tools are complicated and would benefit from in-app tutorials. There are good directions online though. I think the company could also benefit if they licensed their software to other cool mapping services I use like OnX Hunt. Overall great app and worth the price for the paid version.

Anytime I open ANY file that does not have a valid link to an application on my phone (Note 9)... my phone opens your Spyglass app. Extremely annoying! I had one other app that used to do this. Got rid of it. No other app has ever done this. Throughout all of the phones I've ever had. I'll watch for a fix.

Glad I tested this app prior to needing it for an emergency situation. The compass is in excess of 20° off of true north, the map is even further off, it says I'm moving while I have my phone sitting on the floor. Might work for a cheap goofing around situation but I wouldn't want to have to count on it.

Bought it to enable camera functionality and save photos. Found out all the camera button does is play a shutter sound. NO PHOTOS ARE SAVED WHATSOEVER (Samsung S10). App is pretty USELESS if you want to take photos/notes/annotations.

I really love Spyglass. Well designed. If the font size could be made adjustable for easier reading for my poor eyesight, I'm just one person, may be just fine for others. You have a lot packed into this app. Lots of information.

Range finder is not available unless you upgrade to the unmentiined $.99 upgrade to PRO. Not too keen on false advertising. This is not a FREE range finding app.

It helped me a lot , used commander in ios for a very long time. I'm using it in the context of radio dxing. Once u add the co.ordinates of the transmitters, it shows the exact direction and distance from the added sites, and helps in orienting the antennae / receiver.

the free version is a 5 star and the pro version is as well. It's the perfect app for hunting. it's also very handy when your out dirt biking, fourwheelin, or snow mobiling in the boondocks. Hands down the best compass app on the play store. I highly recommend this app.🏆🇺🇸

Sha. S. Sep 16, 2018     

It couldnt find a compass point if i pointed it at it. Its out by as much as 180 degrees sometimes. Its clear there is a calibration issue . But not clear as to why or hpw it can be fixed. I want to like this app and if i can get it going ill remove these comments ...gladly.

this app is advertised showing full features but then when u download it you get a very anarexic almost useless free version. adds dont say you have to pay 6 bucks to get it. somewhat misleading advertising.

OZA. N. Sep 14, 2019     

This is really a great app. Keeps trying to take control of my videos and pics. Seems kinda weird when it cant open these. Its a real shame. Can you say, "DELETE!"

Phi. S. Dec 7, 2018     

Works always as a compass, very accurate and consistent. Installed on my S9. This is the Standard version only no problems and no pop ups..

Ron. H. Sep 13, 2020     

not able to input settings, screen flashes and then kicks out, installed 2 times.... bug kicks me out of functions.... not interested in something not functioning.... yes checked all my android phone settings

Rya. H. Apr 8, 2022     

I love this app. Pay the $1 for the pro, you aren't getting the real experience with the free version.

Never worked on android. Every time I try to go into settings, it crashes. Could never make it work, ever thing is updated.

Jim. B. Apr 28, 2022     

How the hell are you supposed to use it? It's just a complicated compass with a black background and it doesn't move and nothing happens.

Wil. J. Sep 10, 2021     

Great app. No complaints, other than I can't find the folder where screenshots are saved. Also the 'sextant' is more of a protractor. Is there more documentation I can find somewhere to learn how to use the app better?

Kon. V. Oct 3, 2021     

I love this compass function make really good like similar military compass day and night. This is real compatible useful for anytime. I wish everyone welcome to download test this out to see anyone like it.

A. G. u. Oct 2, 2018     

Seems pretty cool especially after learning what the different settings have to offer. Would be nice if N on compass had a small red arrow.

Ver. A. Jul 10, 2019     

this is the most complex and hard to understand compass app ever, take a while for me to figure out how to use it and find how awesome this app is, btw where the night mode for google maps?, please make an option to make the north more noticeable like this app icon

Dra. Sep 11, 2019     

Keeps interfering with opening photos, videos, and audio files even though this app is not designed for that. Uninstalled.

Chu. W. Jul 14, 2020     

Dont bother. I just wanted tk check it out and see if it would be a useful tool. It isnt. When facing southwest, it was on point. Spun 180°(which would be northeast) and it showed southeast. Spun around a bit more towards due north, still showed i was facing southeast. Im no rocket scientist or anything but im reasonably certain southeast isnt in 3 directions and north, south, east and west and points in between still exist. Hard to trust a compass that only knows 2 directions.

Mic. D. Nov 22, 2019     

False advertising. App is not compatible with Android phones. Bought the paid version and no camera image At all. Contacted the company and sold a line of b.s. about an update in the works. DON'T BUY THIS GARBAGE.

Cur. D. Nov 19, 2020     

If you are not going to address reported problems why update the app? If you're going to have Beta testers, why not respond to reported issues. What WAS an app that I used daily is quickly moving lower and lower down my list of apps - soon to be deleted and forgotten. Too bad.

Der. W. Sep 23, 2019     

Excellent tool for its stated purpose. Multiple ways to view coordinates, with compass and navigation and map built in.

Bry. P. L. Oct 11, 2021     

Exactly what I needed. Scope rangefinder is a great touch. A quick handy tool when your out in the field
