GPS Averaging for Negative User Reviews

✓ Some questionable math under the hoodIf you take averages at the same place, without moving the tablet, this app will give you exactly the same position every time. However if you move the tablet and activate the averaging then go back to the original position, then it gives a different position??? Every time! The positions are not out by a lot, but even using 200+ positions they are still more different than they should be..Mkjhl975Version: 2.2

✓ Crap appIt took an average and the average was 30 feet away from where I was. Going to be looking for my money back. Luckily it didn't cost a whole lot..Texasflood69Version: 1.0

✓ Laggy, but probably works for horizontal positionIn limited testing, the app seems to work as advertised, but the interface is extremely laggy- it seems to process at most one touch event per second while averaging, and when I tried to figure out how the +/- buttons for outlier exclusion worked, the app very quickly became unusable. Also, it does not record altitude, making it useless for my use case (mapping). I am now seeking a refund..VernagoVIVersion: 2.1

✓ Won’t let me refundNot worked as expected.'pippin skyeVersion: 2.2

✓ No SI units / freezes with big samplesCould not find way to have units in metric system. Want to get average as long as 3-5 minutes but either freezes or exit when it reaches 250 or more samples..ChagoRodriguezVersion: 2.2

✓ Cannot delete pointsNo easy way to delete points. Even points with same name are kept..BabazaroniVersion: 2.2

✓ Doesn't work ... At all.Just downloaded the app on my iPhone 5c running iOS 8. I tried it out, and the first thing I noticed was no map ever appeared. I switched map types. Nothing. Then I tried letting it collect measurements for over a minute. The result? A bunch of zeros for the coordinates. I'm requesting a refund..GraeckVersion: 1.0

✓ Could be good but not stable on iOS v9.2.1...Nice simple application that looks like it might be very useful once the kinks are worked out. Testing it on a 4S running 9.2.1 does not give good results. Even as the only application running it does not update or behave correctly. Sometimes the "dots" for the GPS coordinates do not mark or display when the app is misbehaving even though the coordicnates are changing. (Sometimes it is not a bug and just the fact that the samples are showing exactly the same location.) Many times after changing to any other menu selections, the GPS "Start" button will not appear. Sometimes none of the button/icon selections will work. (-/+, Menu, Start GPS Averaging, etc...) Text on the averaging page show /+-7xx .... but no indication of what that is. Forcing the app to close and then restarting and going directly to the desired application function will usually get it to work correctly for only one instance. Suggestions: The coordinate format needs to have options for display format so manual conversion is not required between Decimal Degrees, DMS, GPS, etc... iOS file exports would be helpful. Allowing the App to continue running for XX minutes and then stopping with an average. Or allow a setting for say XXX samples then stop. Or you could set an accuracy target of < xx.x feet/meters and then it would stop if the accuracy has not improved more than x.x meter/feet in x minutes. There is support for a landscape format map, but the application does not rotate to match the landscape map. This would be helpful. I would really give this only 1 or 2 stars because of the bugs, but this is an old version and the developers web site says there is a v2.0.2 under review by Apple. Hopefully this will fix many of these issues as the developer indicated. If so this would be a 4-5 star app..Midwest-NowVersion: 1.0
