I am delighted to find this application maps coordinates down to 1m. As Search and Rescue (SAR), being able to map a location that fine is invaluable in search and recovery. If you receive coordinates, you can put them into the converter and it will convert them. Then you click the "map" icon, and it will plot it on the map. I can provide the converted coordinates to those with older GPS and in whatever format they use. It also converts the military grid system and UTM. I had to down-grade it to average, because as soon as I put my phone in airplane mode, it would not load the map. I have my county and its adjacent counties downloaded and available offline. In our huge and rural counties, you are often out of any cell comms range. It does NOT work OFFLINE even though Google maps has a download offline. I am disappointed.

I am a SAR Team Leader. I find the app very easy to use. We typically get coordinates for search and rescue in one of the five different coordinate systems and they typically tell us where to go to meet someone or to find an objective. Therein lies the rub, it's nearly impossible to keep up with going between each of the coordinate systems to find out either where you are or where you're going. This makes it easier to perform our search and rescue task.

Excellent! This app is exactly what I was looking for. Easy to use, very reliable. A little suggestion: When the convert button is hit the keyboard should close. This would make the data hidden under the keyboard easy to read without taking it down by pressing the down arrow on the keyboard.
