What is KroFly?
KroFly is a minimalist compass-style app that points you toward your target destination. Whether you want to know what direction your destination, home or your favourite place is, anywhere anytime.
How does KroFly work?
You set a target based on its Longitude and Latitude, KroFly then uses your phones GPS and sensors to find your location relative to your target to point the way.
Does KroFly work offline?
Yes. Once a destination is saved, KroFly works fully offline using your device's compass and location sensors.
Is my location data stored?
No, I do not handle any of your data. KroFly only stores locations *you* save, locally on your device. Nothing is sent to any server unless you export it yourself.
Is this the final version?
No, this will have continued development for the forseeable future. Though development will be slow as i'm one person and this is a hobby project.
Why did you make this?
My wife wanted to know where home always was so I made this so she could always see towards home.
I hope others can use it to always know which way to find home or know the direction towards something they love or a place they find important.
Is KroFly intended to be a navigation/survival tool?
No, please don't use it for that. This is purely for fun and shouldn't be used in that scenario.
It relies on your GPS and sensors calibration, it should show the general direction most of the time, but any navigation should be done with proper equipment.
It's still in a beta phase and as much testing as I do, I'd rather you just be safe. This app is intended for fun and inspiring adventure, reminding you where to find home or point towards something you find important or love.
How can I support the app?
Use it, share it, and optionally watch an ad to help fund development. The hope is that it will always be free to use.
