IMPORTANT TO KNOW
- GPS recording can work without mobile data when your device has a usable location signal.
- Map imagery and some online services may require internet access.
- Background recording depends on location permissions and iOS. Force quitting, restarting or losing power can interrupt recording.
- Saved progress can be recovered, but missing GPS points cannot be recreated.
- Export a GPX backup of trips you want to keep; deleting the app can remove local data.
- CloudNav is a GPS utility, not a certified aviation navigation instrument or an emergency service.
Designed with a clean, high-contrast interface inspired by navigation instruments, CloudNav focuses on speed, clarity, and reliability when location matters most.
