My 'Waiting for Clod' thread: http://tinyurl.com/bqxc9eeAlways take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.Elie Wiesel. Romanian born Jewish writer, professor, political activist, Nobel Laureate, Holocaust survivor. 1928 - 2016. Indeed the safest road to Hell is the gradual one - the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts. C.S. Lewis, 1898 - 1963.

Let's see...
I hit the compass app on my phone and it gives me my Latitude and Longitude.
Oh, and yeah I can read a map.... Like Jim said.

Look for me on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or Tic Toc...or anywhere you may frequent, besides SimHq, on the Global Scam Net. Aka, the internet. I am not there, never have been or ever will be, but the fruitless search may be more gratifying then the "content" you might otherwise be exposed to.

Guys, read the entire article and the utility of this becomes clear. It's in no way a substitute for Google Maps. Whole different thing entirely.
I personally wouldn't have any use for it these days, but with certain jobs in the past it definitely would have been handy... Did read it all, and now look at myself wondering why I installed it. Just never happens to me. Guess it goes into the trash.

For those to stupid to know how to use google maps. It would work. If it saves a life, even of someone to 'stupid' to use Google maps then it is a useful innovation. Also Google map location ain't that precise. One has to consider lack of data, low battery, poor signal.
