The app functions much like any other map app. You can mark waypoints and later navigate to those waypoints through a built in compass and navigation system. The compass shows you your target bearing and distance and you can also see your current GPS coordinates, altitude, speed, and heading. Using your phone’s built in map app or other mapping apps, Stream Map USA can even bring you from where you are on land to a given waypoint on the water and you can even e-mail someone your GPS coordinates to a given waypoint! How cool! As with other apps you have real time navigation capabilities with either satellite terrain or regular map imagery.
With all this and much more, this app offers up a huge selection of features that must be experienced to truly be appreciated. The good news though is that this app is only $8.99 and its available for download for both iPhone and Android phones and tablets. The best feature for apps like these, in my opinion at least, is that you pay for the app once and use it time and time again, taking advantage of any updates as they come out in the future. I think we are in the “Golden Age” of technology with apps like these for the outdoors.
For our audience, the package to buy is the South Central map which includes the states of Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma. I love bundle packages like this in case I travel to another river or lake in a neighboring state. Other regions throughout the USA are available too so if you know anyone else that could use an app like this in another part of the country, be sure to send this article to them. What’s more is that you will soon be able to bundle packages in multiple regions which make the deal that much sweeter if you are traveling even further out of state.
