Adv Lab Compass Screen - Co-ords Format is Incorrect


Recommended Posts

Recent official Adv Lab App update v1.3.27 build 3071 now displays "current & destination" co-ords on the compass screen, however the actual numbers displayed are 'Decimal Degrees' yet the format is shown as the familiar/traditional geocaching 'Degrees & Decimal Mins' format. This is a quite a fopaux by geocaching.com's Lab programmers ... are they aware? Surely when introducing a new feature, it would undergo a simple "does it look right" check? This needs resolving asap.

That is BAD!! How did they not see that?

I do like how it is visually displayed!

Maybe this blog post will help: https://www.geocaching.com/blog/2021/01/geocaching-101-latitude-and-longitude/
