What's This ?

Positional is a location based app that utilizes the device's GPS and fetches various details of the current latitude and longitude data like Altitude, Speed, Address and similar other information and show it in easily understandable format to the user. Alongside this main functionality of being a location app, Positional also provides a separate panel for Compass and Clock, and they serve their own purpose as their name suggests.

Compass provides info related to direction and Clock fetches the time related information based on the current location and time zone and also sun's information like Sunset, Sunrise, Twilight and a good deal of other info.

On top of all the core functionality Positional is a highly polished app and provides another layer of flexibility to customize the app as per liking including skins for Clock and Compass faces, colors, and many other features that should have been there.

    Make app available in F-Droid or as apk file

    Hello!

    It would be great if users could install this app from sources other than the Google play store. Maybe by making it available in F-Droid or at least by adding the app as an apk file when a release is made.
