MilGPS sets itself apart from other apps with its active development and testing since 2010 and its focus on accuracy, simplicity, ease of use, and stability. However, it's important to note that MilGPS does not currently offer track recording, route planning, or online mapping sources other than Apple and Google maps.
Please be aware that MilGPS collects minimal data if you choose not to use Google maps within the app. A privacy policy is available for more information.
Note that a data connection is required for the mapping function, and WiFi-only iPads are not supported due to the lack of a GPS receiver, which can impact battery life when GPS is in use.
