It's easy to get lost when you're hiking in unfamiliar areas, but you'll always know where you are with Handy GPS. With this app guiding you to a destination or just recording your path while your phone is in your pocket, you can relax and enjoy nature, confident in your ability to reach your goal and make it home safely afterwards.

The app doesn't rely on cell tower coverage since it uses GPS satellites to accurately determine your location. Background maps are automatically cached when you have a phone signal, and in the paid versions of the app, offline maps for an area of interest can be downloaded directly to your phone before you head out on a walk.

Handy GPS performs all the functions of a dedicated hiking GPS. It displays your location in UTM or lat/lon coordinates, has a "goto" function, an odometer, a magnetic compass*, and shows your waypoints and tracklogs on a map.

The app is great for outdoor activities like hiking, bushwalking, mountain biking, kayaking, boating, horse trail riding, surveying, mining, archaeology, and forestry. Handy GPS has been developed and refined over more than a decade and is trusted by hundreds of thousands of users worldwide.

*The magnetic compass feature is available on iPhones and on Android devices which have a magnetic field sensor.

Always ensure you have a fully charged phone battery before heading out on a walk. For extended, remote, or multi-day walks an alternate way of navigating such as a map and compass is strongly recommended.
