vindiboy Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 have you discovered this app? I was shown it last week and now have it on my phone, it is a free app , what it does is this, the whole world is divided up into 3 metre squares including the seas and oceans,open the app and the app has your location and shows a grid and three words that are unique to your square, you can see your square in street view or satellite view, you can then send this data via the app , or other medium to friends so they can see where you are, they can navigate to your square via the app too, the app has a search bar that you can type a place name into and it will show you your destination and give you 3 words for it, brilliant app I think and will get better as I learn to use it better.

Paul- Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 I've had it for quite a while as I go fishing in the middle on nowhere and thought it could come in handy, I hope not but you can't be too careful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geeco Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Yes I have it on my phone. Great idea in an emergency. When travelling in Italy (now only a memory) my GPS has been sometimes inaccurate with finding an address , especially some remote accomodation locations. This app would solve that issue. cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
