gCompass 1.1

gCompass 1.1 ScreenshotThis is a simple electronic compass and speedometer ideal for use in your car or boat. It uses the iPhone GPS to determine heading and speed and displays in either metric or US units.

Note: As with ANY gps based compass, you must be moving for direction of travel to be computed as it is based upon change in position coordinates.

ALSO: This obviously requires a GPS so this wont work on first generation iPhone or the ipod Touch.

-Large easy to read numeric display of speed.
-Dual mode scale:
–Scale rotates with heading at the 12 oclock position.
–Or, scale is North up with a heading arrow that rotates around the scale.
-US or Metric units dynamically selectable: Miles per hour, Kilometers per hour, Knots.
-Readout of current lat/lon in the lower left of the screen.
-Pulsing star confirms GPS update activity.

Whats New:

Now has HUD display for night driving.

I was out one evening and happened to place my iPhone on the dash. Noticing the soft glow of the screen reflecting off the windshield it dawned on me that it would be really cool to take advantage of that reflected image for a Heads Up Display HUD like you see in fighter aircraft and high end cars. My iPhone already has one of those non-slip neoprene jackets so it doesnt slide around on the dash. Its perfect and very convenient. download this version and enjoy another exclusive iPhone innovation from Ayefon.com
