GPS Base

GPS Base for Android is designed to help you remember very specific points in a geographic area, especially if you don’t know it very well and you get lost.

Never lose your most important locations and keep them handy

Suppose you have to go to another city for business or pleasure - then there are a few important things you need to know exactly: where you parked your car, where you can get something to eat or where your hotel is. You need to be able to mark these points on your phone's map as if they were pins on a paper map.

This is exactly what GPS Base is designed for. It's not an application that tells you how to get to any place like Google Maps or Waze, but rather a map for storing the locations of places of interest to you in a given area so you can return again and again return there by following precise directions on your mobile screen.

Simple and effective, but somewhat limited

One good thing to say about GPS Base is that it is what it claims to be - a simple global positioning tool that lets you store up to 6 important locations. So don't expect anything else and don't be disappointed

Broader functionality is missing. The app works reasonably well, but it's still a long way from being what could be considered a full-fledged GPS experience. Nonetheless, if you are looking for a basic GPS then this is ideal for you. These are its main features:

• You can save up to 6 different locations.
• You can view maps in normal, satellite, or hybrid mode.
• You can customize the screen colors.
