POI Downloader

Sometimes, when I do an outdoor-activity, I forget to import the toilets and waterpoints. It’s possible to connect my device with a cable to my phone, but that’s a bummer when I forgot the cables. That’s why I developed this application, to download the waypoints thruogh the bluetooth-connection with my phone. **** INSTRUCTIONS **** When you start the application, it directly starts to search for your locations. Let it find your location before you go any step further. Hold the menu-button (or up) till you see the menu. At the bottom of the menu you will find the distance to set. The application remembers the last chosen distance of the previous run. Hold the menu-button again to choose the waypoints you want to save to your device. Because of the memory limitations of the older devices, the results are limited to 20 waypoints. The result of the saved waypoints stays at the screen for 10 seconds, after the 10 seconds it shows the startscreen again. **** FEATURES **** The waypoints will be saved with a single character. C = campsites / campgrounds F = waterfalls M = mountainpeaks P = parkings T = toilets (restrooms) V = viewpoints W = drinking water The radius from your locations to search in is: 500 meters / 0.5 mile 1 kilometer / 1 mile 3 kilometers / 2 miles 5 kilometers / 3 miles 10 kilometers / 5 miles **** SUPPORT **** I built this program because I like to have new experiences and help you and myself in the outdoors. The time I spent on this was in the evenings, because of my fulltime job.
