motionX GPS app for iPhone

Dec 20, 2008 GPS giveaways, fitness, gps navigation, phones, tracking

If you remember we mentioned motionX GPS Lite couple months ago. Today we have one promo code to giveaway for the full version. Before we tell you how to enter to participate (promise, super easy) let’s mention a couple of the features so you know what you’re getting.

MotionX-GPS pretty much gives you an interface to make use of that GPS receiver in your iPhone 3G. If you’re an outdoorsy type this might be the software you need to leave one more gadget at home.

It has a virtual compass for navigation and the stopwatch to record time, distance, speed and average pace. It lets you email your tracks and waypoints with your photos so they can be viewed on Google Earth and Google Maps.

You can save up to 303 (odd..) waypoints for your favorite locations and view their coordinates in different units such as UTM, DMS, DM or D format. You can also save tracks (101 of them) and then even follow one of them.

There’s no door-to-door navigation but a simple form of it which lets you use the virtual compass to show you your direction of travel in true or magnetic bearings and show you your progress including ETA to selected waypoint.

To participate you need to subscribe to our feed and leave a comment below with an email address we can reach you at.

Duplicate entries, emails, IP addresses will be disqualified.

We’ll close this article for comments this Monday and after that we’ll announce the winner.

UPDATE: Winner is commenter #8, Tom A. who said:

Brilliant idea for an App – is it accurate?
