What's new in WaypointPro 6.3

New mapping options have been added.

- Map - will automatically map the selected point or if no points are selected, all points in the selected category are mapped
- Plotter - will plot selected points from the category on the map

New option to view current waypoint details
- Select the info icon in the Waypoint table to view details of the selected point

Exporting of GPX and KML now adds time information of when the waypoint was created.

Waypoint 6.1.0 Released

Waypoint 6.1.0 has been released and contains the following new features and fixes:


New Features:

• Import/Export CSV format
• This uses the Garmin CSV file format: longitude, latitude, name
• Obtain location from Network Provider
• This allows your device to quickly obtain a location until a GPS lock can be made.  This usually is less accurate, however improves the time to obtain a good lock on your location. A new field has been added to the Current Location table which will display the provider of the current location.
• Provide warnings when saving or selecting a waypoint with poor accuracy
• This is a reminder that the location saved or selected is not very accurate and should taken into consideration attempting to navigate to the selected waypoint
• Import into Existing Category
• This feature allows to you import waypoints into an existing category rather than creating a new category for each import

Fixed:

• Fixed the marker size in the Save Waypoint and Color Options dialog 
• Resolved an issue with the Proximity Alert
• Fixed an issue in the Set Waypoint dialog to allow the entered coordinates to be converted between Degrees, Minutes, and Seconds

Waypoint Free 6.0.0 Released

Waypoint Free 6.0.0 has been released.  This brings Waypoint Free inline with Waypoint Pro and incorporates the UI/menu changes to support Android 4.1+.

Waypoint Pro 6.0.0 Released

Waypoint Pro 6.0.0 has been released.  This release addresses and issue with the Android 4.1 menu system not working properly with extended menu items.  In a way I am thankful that this issue arose as I believe it has really brought the main screen UI forward.  The new UI includes an Action Bar component which was introduced in Android 3.0.  With the use of the Sherlock Action Bar library this component is available on older versions with the use of the Android Compatibility library.  In the action bar you will find menu items for Tools, Settings, and More Options.  Tools contains the plugins (Intents) that Waypoint Pro uses to integrate into Google Maps, Radar, Compass 360, and Waypoint Pro's waypoint plotter. Settings contains menu options for Coordinates, Units, Notifications, Color, and an option to hide the control bar.  Under the extended menu, you will find menu options for About, Manage Waypoint (Edit, Move, Delete), Manage Category (Create, Rename, Delete), Set Waypoint, Share Waypoint, Share Location, Import Waypoints, Export Waypoints, and Backup Data.  Hopefully, this new menu system will make it easier for everyone to use Waypoint Pro.  I have also added a new control bar which contains buttons to save, select, clear, select categories, and create categories.  This control bar replaces the default buttons that were once at the bottom of the application. Long press each of the controls to get a short description of it's function.  As I mentioned in my previous Android 4.1 post, there is also a new color scheme to match the holo blue theme in Android 4.1.  In addition to these visible changes there have been many improvements under the covers.  Check out Google Play to download Waypoint Pro.

With this new release only devices running Android 2.1 or higher will be supported.

Waypoint Free will be updated soon to incorporate these changes to support Android 4.1.

Android 4.1 - Updated

A user has notified me that they are having problems accessing the overflow menu running on Android 4.1.  I was able to recreate this issue in an emulator and it appears to be due to the fact that Android is saying goodbye to the menu button.  This isn't a bad thing as it was time to revamp this part of the code.  Thanks for reporting the issue and I am working on a fix.

Update: 8/12/2012

I just completed an initial upgrade to support the 4.1 menu system.  This update has refreshed the look of Waypoint and incorporates the ActionBar UI component.  This update will be available to users running Android 2.1 and above thanks to the ActionBarSherlock library.  There is still some work left to complete this upgrade so be please be patient.  Here is a screen shot with a SNAPSHOT version of Waypoint Pro running with a new Holo color scheme:

Update: 8/18/2012

Waypoint Pro 6.0.0 has been released and resolves the issue with the extended menu not working on Android 4.1.  Check out Google Play for the new screenshots: Waypoint Pro
