Great app, and amazing potential

Awesome app, the best of its kind! Some features I wish it had: -The ability to change the look of the app, (such as changing the look of the compass on screen) -A data output stream for scientific applications, (motion data from gyro, velocity, etc.) -A 3D map overlay for the compass for better navigation. -Google earth imagery superimposed on the compass screen Overall, an awesome app and worth the money.
Not Very Impressed

This app is hard to use, and the camera function doesn't really gain you a lot. Try using a real navigation app like MotionX.

Terrible Instructions

This app is the worst example of poor documentation. The company can not provide simple explanations of the basic uses of this app.
Wrong Grid Zone Identifier
Ronin Security
I really like the app but while using the MGRS to mark waypoint it uses the wrong grid zone identifier. I live and hike in southern Arizona along the Mexican border. The grid zone identifier is 12R but Spyglass displays 12N. This is a significant problem. My Garmin, Motion-X, military issued maps and USGS maps all use 12R. Please fix and I upgrade to 4 Stars. It is a battery hog.
Not accurate

Compass points about 180 degrees out of where I point the iPhone. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!
a reliable app

Saved me multiple times where other apps failed, thanks to celestial calibration method. 2 Ddougb: To use the app effectively, as with any piece of software there are two thing required. To learn basics about the app. To think at least a little. If you use a magnetic lock preventing that interferes with the digital compass sensor, it's your problem, not the apps'. At least you could watch the 2 minutes video about how to calibrate and verify compass accuracy. At max you could read the manual chapter about it. 2 Ronin Security: It is 12R for south Arizona. Unless you use UTM bands for display. Check in the app settings.
Garmin Buster!!

Over the years I have bought around a dozen Garmins. Yeow! Now Spyglass has sunk that Garmin ship. Garmin support won't answer emails. Too big for their britches I guess. Thank you, Spyglass. Old Alaska bush rat surveyor.
