My “GPS Anti Spoof” app has been released on the Android app store (Google Play Store). The app does everything. Shoot the Sun (or Moon, planet, star) with your sextant and directly compare with the displayed altitude in the app. No calculations / no paperwork. It’s great for sextant training –you get instant feedback. And it easily detects GPS spoofing, if you’re worried about pirates and that sort of thing! Unlike nearly all other available apps and software, this app also incorporates the deflection of the vertical, which can throw off your sights by more than one minute of arc near many islands. The app is dead-on accurate. Find it in the Google Play store here. The basic version is free. There’s also a paid “pro” version. The iOS version is on the way. The Apple approval process is notoriously slow, but that’s how they keep the world safe from security threats, right? Here’s the pdf of my Navigation Symposium presentation on this concept:
