We added countless of feature in 2019. With more than 100 app updates

We delighted to inform you that all of our main apps now have in-app subscription option to remove ads. (With an exception of Thai app)

App Discontinuation

We discontinued total of 21 app since the beginning of 2019.

We will also discontinue 3 mores apps within mid-July.

This is to slim down number of apps so we can stay focus and make our best app truly our best.

For second half of 2019, we focus our work on…

We admit that our android apps at current state are no way as good as iOS versions.

Coordinates 4.5 : World Magnetic Model Calculator

Hello,

It’s been a week with a lot of updates

Coordinates 4.5 adds three more features! (I would call this version 5.0 if I could polish its design a bit more).

  1. World Magnetic Model Calculator!

It’s now possible to calculate these information related to geomagnetic fields

D = Declination (Degree)

I = Inclination (Degree)

X = North Intensity (nT)

Y = East Intensity (nT)

H = Horizontal Intensity (nT)

Z = Vertical Intensity (nT)

F = Total Intensity (nT)

GV = Magnetic Grid Variation (Degree)

Press Magnet icon on the main page to view these information

Press on Altitude or Date to make changes to these value

Select WMM model to use in setting menu (WMM2015 or WMM2015v2)

2. View more coordinates at once

However, it’s not possible to save pin as this time.

4. Performance Boost

We removed redundancy calculations from the app. It should works faster on slower devices.

    • Lines color will reflect to height of that particular spot

    • Also switched to new server

    • Now plot circles on the map and change color depends on elevation differences between points

    • Tap on a point to recall previous elevation value

Subscribe to remove ads will come soon.

More update: 14 Jun 2019 - More discontinues

Hello,


I’m delighted to announce so many new updates happening this week.

SunMap version 3.9 is now available with option to remove ads. At $0.99 per month, which is half the price of all other map apps.

Coordinates version 4.4 is also available with save/load/renaming features.

We finally completed writing instruction for Coordinates app. You can check it here


Beginning next week, we will migrate Elevation app data source to our own server to reduce latency and cost. We ordered new dedicated server to provide data just for this purpose.


We also decided to discontinue more older apps so we can only focus on the most important one.

As a toast of farewell here are the list of app which already or soon to be removed from the App Store.

ThaiElevation - Elevation app Thai edition. We made this app for Thai flood 2011. We discussed with Apple on the existence of this App. We have to let this app go for good since Elevation app now have Thai localization.

DrawArea

We wrote this app along side with Distance app. DrawArea app provide area calculation just be drawing shape on the map.

However, Distance 5.0 now has area calculation as well as using higher precision algorithm. We decided to discontinue this DrawArea app and suggest everyone to migrate to Distance app instead.

MorseTap

We made this app to catch-up with Google’s April fool days joke on April, 2012. Which they provide Morse code keyboard for all devices.

Google introduces new google TAP replacing old QWERTY pad. The mischievous new Google product is called Gmail Tap. It already has its own product page, where Google explains that it will offer "multi e-mail" mode with a dual-threaded keyboard, to allow you to type multiple messages at one time.

We managed to get this app feature on Appadvice as well!

Unitext

We made a mistake using unicode character as the app name. People can’t find this app! We made this app before custom keyboard is available on the iOS. Just for fun!

Antipodes

Just a map tunneling tool. Nothing else

Population

Calculate population within circle. We use this app as an engine for BlastSim app.

That’s all for this week. See you again next time!


Introducing Distance 5.0

Hello,

It has been raining all week here in Bangkok. Since we can’t really go out, we had more time to work on more App updates.

Today, we’re proud to present you a new version of my very first app ever.

Welcome to a completely new Distance app.

Version 5.0

Here are list of new features:

  1. Redesigned User Interface

Draw

We replace toggle button (Measure/Draw) to a switch. Which hopefully will be much more easy to understand. You may notice that the app has two switch instead of one, that’s because………

2. Area measurement

Distance app now includes area measurement feature just like DrawArea. We use new algorithm which is far more accurate than what we provided in DrawArea app.

Coefficient feature works with area unit as well as distance unit.

Note: Since we provided area measurement within Distance app, DrawArea app will soon be discontinued and remove from the App Store. Please migrate to Distance app as soon as possible. We will also push a new update which will remind every user to migrate to Distance app instead.

Instruction has been updated to reflect this update.

We hope you will enjoy this new update!

If you don’t own this app already. Please get the app here.
