About Car Finder (GPS)
This application is used to store the current position of the vehicle (or other valid object) using the GPS technology (your mobile device must be equipped with them).
After saving the position of the vehicle can leave him (you can, of course, close the application and even turn off the phone). When you want to go back to the vehicle, start the application, which automatically when connected to a GPS satellite will indicate the direction in which we should follow in order to get to the saved location (eg. Cars left in the parking lot or in the woods during the mushroom). You can manualy set coordinates of the target - long click in "save actual gps position" button.The application also provides direction in addition to the distance (in straight line) from the vehicle, and the speed of movement. These data are shown in real time, but only when there is an active connection to the satellite (GPS signal found). The application has also been enhanced with support for Magnetic Fields, it can be run in the Settings app - unfortunately, not every mobile device is equipped with them. If you do not know or are not sure, use our application "Mobile Sensor Seeker" (available free on the Google Play store), which finds all the sensors with which your mobile device is compatible.
Operation:
1. Run the application and wait for the GPS signal, then save the location to which you want to go back.
2. Relax, you can move away from a saved place (you can, of course, exclude the application and the phone).
3. When you come back to a saved location: Run the application and wait for the GPS signal. If you have not enabled Magnetic Fields, you absolutely need to move (preferably in one direction) to "Car Finder" to be able to properly calibrate.
4. Follow the indications on compass to quickly and easily return to the saved location.
Additional information:
When you click on the compass, it will be increased. Remember, however, that if you have a small display (or a low-resolution) in your mobile device displays a compass can be quite small in such cases we do not recommend to use the application while driving vehicles.
You must also know that the correct service Magnetic Fields (if your mobile device is equipped with them) largely depends on the sensor. Sometimes too strong tilt of your device, as the position of the plane or the angle can result in erroneous indications - in such cases, you must first test the application under which the angles correctly indicates the exact direction to a saved destination.
The application works quickly, occupies little memory and does not burden the system, therefore, certainly should be included as a must-have for every mobile phone and mobile device equipped with GPS and Android.
