    Google Maps implemented in TERRAPIN X app

    The free smartphone app (available for iOS and Android) of your TERRAPIN X rangefinder enhances its functionality tremendously. The app enables you for example to measure the distance between two objects, to initiate measurements remotely, or to easily adjust the settings of your TERRAPIN X. With the newly released app version 1.2.6 that can be downloaded now from the Apple App Store and Google Play, another innovative feature was added to the TERRAPIN X app.

    With the implementation of Google Maps into the app, the geographic position of measured targets can now be shown on the display of your smartphone. In order to achieve this, the TERRAPIN X app uses the GPS location provided by your smartphone, the azimuth determined by the digital magnetic compass of your TERRAPIN X and the measured distance to the target. You can name the measured targets individually, add target information (e.g. DOPE) and have their GPS data displayed.

    The Terrapin X App is definitely a high point with this rangefinder
     
    Is the Terrapin x a badass rangefinder??? Me and my buddies hunt Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana and it seems like when seconds count we are let down by rangefinders. If someone does please let me know.

    Yes, it is!

    he geographic position of measured targets can now be shown on the display of your smartphone. In order to achieve this, the TERRAPIN X app uses the GPS location provided by your smartphone, the azimuth determined by the digital magnetic compass of your TERRAPIN X and the measured distance to the target.

    Distance is Ok, but azimuth and GPS coordinades are not always correct. Direction error is about 10 degree. This affects the error in coordinates
