This is the only app I have gave a review too after 5yrs with Garmin. This app is excellent, brilliant for a quick fix in the hills and trails- should pre-installed. Could become a lifesaver in the winter if lost and requiring assistance

Useful. Even better if it had an option to auto switch between GB and Ireland refs based on current location.

This widget is really excellent on my Fenix 5. I wanted something that would give my current position quickly but without having the GPS running all the time. This widget does exactly that. Thank you.

Simple but effective. Only shows your current location but that is exactly what it says on the tin!

Love it. Complete newbie here though, can OS GR field be shown continuously on a watch face?

I'm not sure - I don't think the GPS can be accessed from the Watch API so I don't think it's possible, but even if it was it would be a major drain on the battery. The best way I've found of doing that is to add the OS GR as a data field to an Activity so at least the GR is always available while out hiking / running. Send me a note via the contact button if you'd like more info on how to set that up. Cheers.

Great to have so accessible on the list of widgets. Takes no time to give accurate 10 fig grid ref. Thanks

I'm not currently getting a GPS fix on my new Fenix 5. It's just says waiting for GPS. Even with a clear view of the sky it isn't aquiring any satellites. If you could help me out it would be appreciated.

Hi Craig, I'm doing some work on the widget and data field so might be able to add support for more locations (e.g. Irish Grid support is one that a few people have asked for). Could you let me know a bit more about how you'd like to use it outside the UK? In particular what location formats would you like to see? If you get a chance please post some more details to the forum thread: https://forums.garmin.com/showthread.php?305827-DataField-UK-Grid-Reference or get in touch through the Contact Developer link on the right.

Gives a 10 fig grid ref which is very accurate against my other dedicated GPS unit, however when in a grid ref starting with a 0, e.g. NZ 04257 13770 it reads NZ 4257 13770. Fine if you can remember it omits a zero at the start. A simple fix - I'm sure?? 3 stars for this version, 5 if the zero bug can be fixed.
