Find out your current location on the Swiss coordinate system, the mapping reference system in use in Switzerland.

The app will provide you your CH1903 / LV03 Reference number, along with your current compass bearing. Latitude and Longitude (WGS84) coordinates are also provided.

The accuracy of the device reading is also shown on screen.

Includes a graphical key to the "Swiss coordinate system".

Will work worldwide, but intended for use only in Switzerland and surrounding territories.

Great for walkers, climbers, cyclists and outdoor enthusiasts. Always carry a physical compass and map in addition to your iPhone.

For the best accuracy, use in an open space, away from rocks or trees.

Like a traditional compass, use with the phone in a flat position, not upright.

When continued usage is required, you can set the iPhone Screen to stay on indefinitely, from the Settings tab.

Compatible with iPhone. Not compatible with iPod Touch, or (non-cellular) iPads, due to the lack of GPS and Compass hardware.
