Handy GPS - goto page

This page uses the phone's direction sensor and/or GPS heading along with your current location to guide you back to a previously recorded waypoint.

An arrow indicates the direction you should travel and the distance is displayed near the top of the page. When you're moving at walking pace or greater, the GPS heading is automatically used to give a more accurate direction indication. This is indicated by the letters "GPS" being displayed at the bottom left of the page.

As with the compass page, you should periodically move your phone in a figure 8 pattern in the air to calibrate the direction sensor.
