About Waypoint Pro

Waypoint is a waypoint manager that allows you to save and manage waypoints. Waypoints can be plotted on a map to access information about the waypoint or viewed in Google Maps to access directions, streetviews, or topographical map data if available.

Waypoint allows you to easily organize your location data by creating categories which specify the type of location data being stored. Three types of location data are supported, Waypoints, Routes, and Tracks. The type of location data choosen for each category will determine how the data is mapped and exported using the export to GPX feature.

Categories can be used to store your favorite fishing, boating, hunting, parking, or any other kind of location data you can think of.

Categories and Waypoints are all fully manageable: Create, Rename, Move waypoints between categories, and Delete.

Your waypoint data can easily be backed up either by E-mailing or uploading the data file to Google Drive if you have the Google Drive app installed.

Waypoint can also notify you when you are within a certain distance of your waypoint by enabling the Proximity Alert feature. With the proximity alert enabled you will receive a system notification indicating your are within the set proximity of your waypoint. This feature can be set in the Edit Notifications menu item.

Want to share your location with other friends or send your friends your Waypoints? Use the Share Location and Share Waypoint feature to easily email, SMS, Facebook, Twitter, etc. your locations to your friends.

If you have location data stored in GPX format Waypoint can import your data and automatically categorize it into Waypoints, Routes, and Tracks. Or, if you have location data that is in KML format Waypoint can import it as well.

Want a really cool way to show your friends the places you have been? Export the data as KML format and email the file which can be opened with Google Earth on a computer. Or you can open the KML file right on your mobile device and view the waypoints in the Google Earth mobile application.

I paid because it said it could import GPX files. Got distracted setting up dropbox. 20 minutes later I run it -- it has a UI to "Import Source from: GPX", but the OK button is greyed out. The error "A problem occurred retrieving files to import" is on the screen, but I haven't even had a chance of choosing the file in my dropbox! I can't use it for why I bought it. I paid for nothing.

I LOVE this app for collecting and exporting survey points in csv format for field work. Saves my company money in that they don't have to buy me a separate GPS unit. Thank you for a GREAT simple, accurate, functional app.

Attempting to import a csv with 500 waypoints causes the app to crash instantly. Attempted cut it into 100 waypoint imports with the same results. Csv setup is as follows: Longitude,Latitude,Name

Droid dev... I just purchased the 6.7 version and the radar functionality is not working.. the app sends me to the marketplace to search for the app but i get the following message: "No results found for 'pname:com.thedroiddev.android.radar'. Any tips????

Would give 5/5, but a couple of issues not the least of which is one of the sister apps required for functionality is no longer in app store (radar). Had it on my old phone and no longer seems to be offered. Still decent, but until corrected you want to look elsewhere. For me it works to map out landmarks on large acreage. Plotter leave something to be desired (cannot control order or have a map persist). Long story short - solid app for data capture....not so awesome for data display. Used 1 year.

I wouldn't be asking unless I find this app useful. 1. I navigate by altitude, it changes much faster than latlong. I need target altitude displayed. I asked a year ago and have been ignored. PLEEEZ. 2. I need a display of my current version, and a way to manually update.

The list function shows you distance and direction to a category of waypoints, which is a big improvement. However, clicking on a list entry doesn't select it as the active waypoint, as you would expect. It just shows more info about the waypoint. There's should be a Select button on that info screen, or you should be able to long-press on a list item to select it. Instead, you have to leave that screen, open up a different screen, and then select the waypoint you want. Not exactly user-friendly.

Handier than indoor plumbing. Helps me to organize and find several locations related to my job. Also, don't forget to thank Einstein for his special theory of relativity thus making GPS a possibility.

It's ok on its own in the foreground. But doesn't seem to work in the background at all when using any other GPS navigation app? Pity, would've been very useful. Desire 2.2

Lets say you want to leave your hotel in the middle of Nepal, simply set up a home waypoint, start exploring and setting up way points along the route then when you want to come back just select home. Install the radar extension. Its a must have. This app is great.

Great use with Google map, developer has great email responses. I plan to use it to mark locations that I don't go often. With the proximity alarms, I like to enter locations of all the speed and red cameras in the city. The pro version made it great to share with others.
