About MyGPSWaypoints
MyGPSWaypoints captures exact coordinates in the field and helps you navigate right to them. Whether you're overlanding, running a rally stage, hiking, hunting, or exploring by 4x4, it turns the places that matter into precise, organized waypoints you can always come back to.
Log your live position with one tap, name and classify it, stamp the location data onto a photo, and follow a live compass straight to your target. Import and export GPX to work with your other GPS tools, and back up your entire library — waypoints and photos — as a single file.
No account required. Your waypoints and photos stay on your device. Get out there, and always find your way back.
