Poynterra Trekker GPS + Tools

What is Poynterra Trekker?

Poynterra Trekker is a unique, versatile navigation app that literally points you to any location on earth (a waypoint) without using the internet.
If youre an off-the-beaten-track trekker who would welcome a GPS lifeline in remote areas, this app is for you.
Laying down GPS tracks is easy in ROAM and TRIP modes, ensuring easy return to previous waypoints.
And as an ultimate lifeline, weve added SOS Emergency Flasher.
If youre a less adventurous traveler (like on a peaceful cruise), youll find it equally valuable in tracking distance and direction to foreign ports on the open seas and for sightseeing on land.
If youre on a biking trip, youll love AudioPoynt, which points you to your destination though your phone speaker or earbuds even when your phone is off.
All of this, and much more, functions without wifi or a cell connection!
Besides navigation, Poynterra Trekker has powerful waypoint management features.
Waypoints with descriptive info can be easily added to user-created folders and copied/moved between them.
Waypoints and folders are easily exported and shared (require internet of course), especially with other Poynterra users, in a number of file formats.
The capability to import sets of waypoints directly into folders is one of Poynterra Trekkers most powerful features and can take planning of your trekking and sightseeing to an entirely new level.
Waypoint data can be in the form of KML/KMZ files created with Google My Maps, Google Earth or other sources, CSV files from spreadsheets, and GPX files from other location tracking devices.
Folders exported as PYNZ files (our own format) by you or other Poynterra Trekker users can be imported without losing any of the original information.
Poynterra Trekker can also download Poynterra Collections, ready-made, curated sets of waypoints.
These are available on the app at Menu>Collections or by scanning a Collections unique QR code from printed matter or screen displays.
At present, the number of Collections is small, but it will grow with time as we add not only our own content, but also Collections content from other creators.
