Waypoint: Offline Navigation

Whether you're a hiker catching the perfect golden hour, a surveyor needing precise coordinates, or an engineer auditing GNSS hardware, Waypoint gives you every tool in one clean, modern app. 🛰️

🧭 COMPASS & ORIENTATION

High-precision navigation using the Android Fused Orientation Provider for smooth, stable results.

• Advanced Compass: Stable heading with support for both Magnetic and True North.

• Artificial Horizon: Real-time 3D Pitch and Roll indicators for orientation and tilt analysis.

• Dynamic Radar: A live view of your path with automatic scaling and distance metrics.

🌅 SKY & GOLDEN HOUR TRACKER

Never miss the perfect light again.

• Golden Hour & Blue Hour: Precise start and end times for the best natural lighting — a must for photographers and filmmakers.

• Sunrise & Sunset: Exact solar event times for your location, updated daily.

• Moon Tracking: Moonrise, moonset and illumination percentage for any date.

• Solar Noon: The exact moment the sun reaches its peak.

🛰️ GPS & SATELLITE STATUS

Real-time location data backed by full constellation visibility. Supports GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BEIDOU, QZSS, and NAVIC.

• Precise Coordinates: Latitude, longitude, altitude and accuracy — with UTM, MGRS and Plus Code support.

• Satellite Map: A live view of every visible satellite with constellation-specific iconography.

• Signal Metrics: Signal-to-Noise Ratio, Baseband C/N0, Carrier Frequency, Azimuth and Elevation.

• Dual-Frequency: Detect L1+L5 (GPS) and E1+E5a (Galileo) support on your device.

🏔️ BAROMETRIC ALTIMETER & VSI

Leverage your device's pressure sensor for professional-grade altitude data.

• Fused Altitude: GPS + barometric fusion for stable, precise elevation readings.

• Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI): Real-time ascent and descent rate in m/s or ft/min.

• Altitude History: Visualise your elevation changes over time.

• Weather Trend: Atmospheric pressure monitoring with storm warning alerts.

🔁 BACKTRACK NAVIGATION (PRO)

Record your path and find your way back.

• Background Tracking: Path recording stays active in the background — no data lost during your trip.

• Trip Statistics: Total distance travelled and furthest point from origin.

• Retrace: Reload any saved route on the radar and walk it back step by step.

📍 PROFESSIONAL COORDINATE SYSTEMS

Advanced location formats for surveying, military and search & rescue.

• UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator): Grid-based location referencing.

• MGRS (Military Grid Reference System): Simplified grid-based location tracking.

• Plus Codes: Open Location Codes to share your position without a street address.

• Speed Gating: High-accuracy speedometer that filters out stationary jitter.

🛠️ GNSS HARDWARE AUDIT

A detailed report of your device's GNSS chipset capabilities.

• Capability Report: Carrier Phase (centimetre precision), Raw Measurements, Navigation Messages and Antenna Info.

• Hardware Info: Chipset model name, hardware year and manufacturer features.

📜 RAW NMEA CONSOLE & LOGGER (PRO)

A dedicated utility for developers and data scientists.

• Real-time Stream: View raw NMEA sentences ($GPGGA, $GPRMC, $GPGSV) directly from the GNSS receiver.

• NMEA Logging: Export GNSS data for post-processing, analysis or research.

🔒 PERMISSIONS

• Location: Required for GPS tracking, altitude and Backtrack functionality.

• Notifications: Required to keep the Backtrack service active in the background.
