About the App

Handy GPS by BinaryEarth is your go-to buddy for exploring the great outdoors, taking on fieldwork, or just making sure you don’t lose your way. Whether you’re hiking off the grid, cruising on a mountain bike, or even doing some serious surveying, this Maps & Navigation app is built to help you track where you are, log where you’ve been, and guide you right back home. If you like your adventures wild but want your navigation tools rock solid, Handy GPS gets the job done without fuss—or a phone signal.

App Features

  • Accurate Location Tracking
    Keep tabs on your current coordinates, altitude, speed, and direction—all right at your fingertips. Measurements are flexible; pick metric, imperial, or nautical units.

  • Waypoints & Track Logs
    Save your favorite spots as waypoints or let the app record your tracks, perfect for backtracking or sharing your journey later. Fits just as well for hiking as for fieldwork.

  • Multiple Coordinate Formats
    Enter or view locations in UTM, MGRS, or good old lat/lon. It even handles worldwide datums and grid systems, so you’re set whether you’re exploring US parks or trekking across Europe.

  • Map Integration
    Export and view your waypoints and tracks in Google Earth, or import existing KML/GPX files. Handy for planning or reminiscing.

  • Offline Ready
    No internet? No problem. Handy GPS works just fine in the most remote spots. Download map tiles ahead of time, or use your own images as custom maps.

  • Navigation Tools
    Navigate to saved waypoints using the “Goto” screen. Get alerts when you’re close, and let the compass page guide you (as long as your device has the right sensor).

  • Extra Utilities
    Burn GPS info right onto photos, make voice memos tied to your location, and access sunrise/sunset times. It even computes calories burned and keeps a timer for your walks.

  • Sync & Share Easily
    Need to send your location or share tracklogs with a friend? Handy GPS lets you shoot that over via email or SMS with just a couple taps.

  • Even More Precision
    Try GPS averaging for tighter accuracy, create waypoints by triangulation, and calculate not just distances but also area and elevation changes.

  • Wearable Compatibility
    Got an Android Wear watch? There’s a standalone watch app ready to go, so you can leave your phone in your backpack if you want.

  • Flexible & Customizable
    Pick background images, tweak coordinate systems, and display grid refs your way. There’s even a spoken navigation option if you don’t want to keep checking your screen.

Running Handy GPS on your PC or Mac with BlueStacks gives you an even bigger view of your adventure data. Whether you’re out in the field or sorting things back home, this app packs a ton of useful tools into a simple, no-nonsense package.
