Re: Replacement GPS logging app for iPhone
Rego saves on Dropbox in json format. After the dives, at home, I simply open the backup file with a text editor and paste the GPS coordinates in Subsurface on Windows.

Re: Replacement GPS logging app for iPhone
Which format do these apps save the GPS information in? Obviously the next request from someone will be to import such format... /D On October 18, 2021 7:04:44 AM PDT, Willem Ferguson via subsurface wrote: >In Android there are many similar programs.

Re: Replacement GPS logging app for iPhone
Perhaps I have already told that I find comfortable with Rego. I used it since the first days it was out and “gained” a free pro license. Really stable and with backup to Dropbox, so you can get places and GPS coordinates from that file.

Re: Replacement GPS logging app for iPhone
In Android there are many similar programs. One of the more versatile is GPS Essentials.
