About Field Triangulate
Specifically designed for use in the field, Field Triangulate supports:
- Fully automated use of iOS device location. Compass bearings are best manually entered.
- Manual entry/edit of any/all readings.
- On map display in various display modes.
- Manually update device bearings (e.g. for use with a compass.)
- Share the triangulation to others.
- Multiple latitude/longitude formats:
-- Decimal degrees
-- Degrees and decimal minutes
-- Degrees, minutes and seconds.
-- (Display for UTM.)
Basic usage:
Use your iOS device & compass to take bearing on a remote location from two locations and Field Triangulate will calculate and display the GPS coordinate for the remote location.
Advanced usage:
Enter readings provided from a remote person (perhaps by iPhone or radio) and add your own readings manually in order to calculate a remote location.

I wish I had not wasted $7.99.
I would like an app that does what this one is supposed to do. This one doesn’t do what it is supposed to do. This app is wildly inaccurate. I have been testing in Utah desert with large distinct landforms, similar to monument valley, that should be easy to point at and take a bearing. The accuracy is so far off the app is useless. Also, the layout and procedure is unintuitive and the documentation is poor. When you do figure out how it is supposed to work you also figure out how poorly the layout supports the function. Finally, the developer does not respond to email questions regarding functionality. This app would be a disappointment if it was free. It is a bad joke at $7.99. I think a refund should be provided but the App Store says this app is not eligible for a refund.

Not intuitive
Not easy to use intuitively. I tried to confirm the location of a peak using my location and couldn't see how to do it.
