For what this app is & does is a solid value for 1.99. I’m a professional land surveyor working as part of a large organization. This app lets me empower people who know next to nothing about surveying but can reliably follow instructions on converting their waypoints for “x” into state plane coordinates or to lat/long as needed. With the GPS enabled, they can hover over something for a few seconds to get a decent “fix” & then copy that data to their clipboard to place in another app or wherever they want to store it. For anyone who feels the app doesn’t perfectly translate between datums, please understand that the world isn't a perfect geometric figure & the mathematical models do their best to approximate but errors will occur relative to source data & datum as well as the output. That shouldn’t reflect negatively against the app but it’s merely how the process of translation & rotation of data between datums works. However, tapping on a field to enter coordinates causes the screen to scroll up beyond what the user can see. So you can’t copy/paste values for easy conversion. This is a pain. 11/04/2020: New update did indeed fix screen issue I was experiencing. Thank you.
