Very well designed, one of the nicest apps of its type on GPS, for viewing on a tablet (Samsung Galaxy Note Pro). Plus, BIG PLUS, there are NOT ads, which is wonderful. No ads = No distractions while doing research. THANK YOU DEVELOPERS for keeping this app AD FREE.

Great functionality, great look, great information. Does what other apps (paid and free) do with a much nicer looking ui. Only one complaint. Could the units also be listed in miles?
