1. MapMyHike
MapMyHike (is available on both Android and iOS) uses your phone's sensors to track and log your hiking route, which then provides information on pace, distance, calorie counting and route navigation. In addition to logging your own hikes, you can also search and download other nearby routes. This is great for outdoor enthusiasts, who would like to improve or track their hiking. MapMyHike is available as a monthly or annual subscription.

Spyglass is a multipurpose GPS navigation and augmented reality view finding app. Spyglass serves as a heads-up display with navigation details, a smart compass, and map display all rolled up into one mobile package. Users can download offline maps, navigate toward waypoints, get coordinates and find their way to locations - perfect for when you are on top of the highest mountains or the lowest valleys and your phone signal may be next to none! You can track your GPS location data, with altitude, course, and speed, track the sun and stars and use a rangefinder feature.
