Your position is the blue dot. The shaded circle around it shows how accurate the fix is: the smaller, the better.
- Tap Go to my GPS position (the target button). The map centres on you and follows you as you walk, until you move the map yourself.
- The panel at the bottom shows your coordinates and accuracy. Tap it for more: satellites, altitude, heading and when it was last updated.
- The crosshair in the middle of the map is the map centre. Its coordinates are shown too, which is handy for reading off a grid reference.
Choose British National Grid or latitude/longitude in More → Settings → Coordinate format.
No blue dot?
- Allow location or Allow precise on the map: ForestrPro needs precise location. Tap the button and allow it.
- Device location is turned off: tap Turn on.
- Indoors or under thick canopy, a fix can take longer and is less accurate. Step into a clearing if you can.
Phone GPS is usually accurate to a few metres in the open, and worse under trees. It isn't survey grade.
