Pebble Hike is an app that works with your Pebble smart-watch (http://getpebble.com) to provide real-time location information directly to your watch screen.
Pebble Hike is aimed at U.K hikers, runners and bikers that use Ordnance Survey maps to navigate. We provide three screens of information :
- A representation of your current OS grid square with a marker showing your location within the square and, if you're moving, your approximate bearing.
- Your exact easting and northing, sheet number and altitude in metres.
- Your longitude, latitude and altitude in feet.
Using Pebble to provide this information has several advantages :
1) It saves battery life on your iPhone as you're not constantly unlocking / locking and displaying images on the phone screen,
2) It protects your iPhone from the inevitable bad weather (the Pebble is waterproof, the iPhone isn't!),
3) It is safer for you and your iPhone as if you're crossing tricky terrain you want both hands free so you don't drop your phone or trip over.
So, if you love the Great Outdoors, have a Pebble and iPhone then this is the app for you!
Note that you'll need the partner iOS App installed which can be downloaded from here :
