Frequently asked questions
The camera view points in the wrong direction.
Phone compasses are easily thrown off by steel masts, brackets and nearby electronics. Move a few metres away, wave the phone in a figure-8 to calibrate it, then use Sync heading while the crosshair is centred on a landmark you can see. You can also set a compass offset in the Settings tab.
The tilt reading is off by a degree or so.
If your phone isn't mounted perfectly parallel to the antenna, set a tilt offset in Settings, in the Sensor calibration section.
The target marker is drawn in the wrong place over the camera image.
Adjust the camera field of view in Settings. It only changes where the marker is drawn; the numeric guidance does not depend on it.
The terrain isn't showing, or says it is unavailable.
Terrain and elevation data are downloaded as needed, so you need a data connection. Check your connection and try again. Terrain data is bare-earth with a resolution of roughly 30 to 90 m, so trees and buildings are not included.
The app says the target is behind terrain.
Open the Terrain profile to see where the path is blocked. Raising one or both antennas or choosing another site may clear the line of sight.
Does the app work without a GPS signal?
Yes. Choose Set Origin and tap the map to place your position by hand.
How do I delete my saved targets?
Open the Saved tab and tap Delete on a target. Uninstalling the app removes everything it stored.
