This is the first app I have installed and it works well. Why only four stars? I have an Instinct 2. On this watch, there is a permanent ring on the watch face to separate the data fields. Unfortunately, the ring covers part of the grid location. The developer has done a great job putting together a useful tool, it just isn't ideal on the instinct 2.

Hi Robert, please update the app as I have modified the Instinct series watches look as you suggested. Maybe it now deserves the 5 stars? ;)

After update it works great on Oregon700. Datafield version does the job too, but this app is way more informative with additional precise coordinates in two most common formats. '73

Dear Patryk, would you like to have the extended info on the DataField as well? In the same view or as another field? '73
