GPS Kit is a top-of-the-line GPS system for adventurers and professionals in the great outdoors.

GPS Kit HD takes full advantage of the larger screen to bring you an all-around completely immersive experience. The same powerful menus and tabs can now be shown at the same time as the map, giving you more context and information at all times. 

**A note on iPad types: the 4G/LTE version of the iPad has excellent GPS reception, even without Internet connection. The wifi-only iPad does not use true GPS, so, while the app may still prove useful, it will not necessarily get an accurate location.

Designed for outdoor activities such as hiking, hunting, camping, GIS field collection, researching, skiing, cycling, geocaching, mountain biking, motorcycling, off-roading, fishing, and other romping in or out of the backcountry--anywhere in the world.

Awesome app

One of the best GPS trackers for offline maps. Used it in the Sierra Nevadas, Zion and abroad in Poland, Ecuador and Croatia. Love it!

I bought the program for my iPad assuming I could hotspot from my phone for GPS. I did it on my iPad because it is a bigger screen. iPad does not allow hotspot so I will need to now purchase the app again for my phone. The program even on my iPad crashes a lot even when I have tried to navigate around to learn to use it. So…. basically lost the couple of bucks.

Use this for off-roading but not USEFUL

I hope they improve...I can not use Google satellite and Bing image as offline maps. Google satellite also does not load. Hopefully they are working on issues because I need this app to work good

Good . Bad . Ugly !!

I bought it on iPad , waiting to be downloaded on iPhone automatically ,but did not . I bought it again on lPhone asking refund the first one , NO Answer from apple ! The iPad version does not do properly and so and so !! Totally it is a good app because it has the ability adding pics and videos to tracks but is very expensive .it does not worth .

What HD means...

...In this application?. Very expensive for the value received. More than one year and no improvements. It is an acceptable app just for tracking and save the points but nothing else.

It's wonderful... When you can get the off-line maps to download

I used this app on my iPad all over the world. I would give it 5 stars, except that now there seems to be an issue with downloading Google based maps and images. I sure hope they get that fixed. Sad to see so many poor reviews, i wonder if they ever watched the instructional videos?
