Do you want to know the distance to the South Pole? Do you want to plan your next trip and do you want to know and save which places you want to visit and how much distance lies in between them? Or are you rather interested in the distance between two cities? Then you are on the absolute right track with this app.

PinPoints enables you to measure quickly and easily the distance between two randomly picked points. You can calculate the distance beeline as well as for your car route. This app is the perfect navigation support, which can be from great benefit for the private and the corporate use.

Selection of any number of points
It doesnt matter how many points you choose, PinPoints calculates every single route between them. At any point you can go back and alter the calculated route.

Multiple location determination
You can choose between three different location determinations: your current location, a random spot on the map, or by choosing an address.

History of your trips
After you have planned and calculated your route you can find it under history and administer or name it there. Beyond that you can change the order of your trips in your History and erase the ones you no longer need.

Naming of trips
You can name your routes/trips and administer them as you wish.

Visualizes beeline or car route on the map
If you choose the desired locations the beeline or car route will be shown immediately.

Data shown in KM or Miles
The measurement can - according to need and location - be shown in Kilometer or Miles.

Simple and lucid menu
It cannot be easier: just a few clicks are between the user and the desired route, which will be shown immediately on the map.

Pros and cons of Pin Points Distance Calculator app for iPhone and iPad

Pin Points Distance Calculator app good for

Ive been planning my driving trip from Vancouver BC to San Diego and to Vegas, this app has made it so easy it tells you how far a how many hours to get there.

Ive been looking for an app that could retrace the roads I took on a road trip. Sounds simple but all other apps have something missing like; wont measure driving distance, or adding and deleting a stop (pin) is complicated. It seems user friendly but I havent had it too long. Ill update if its too good to be true

Some bad moments

This is a useless app. Plug in an address and it will not allow any usage.

Its a good concept, and nice beginning. Hopefully it will drastically improve. It would be nice to have a + button to be able to easily have multiple routes saved. To make a new route, you have to manually delete each waypoint of the existing route, and start over. Also, as others have mentioned, each time you want to put in a new waypoint, the map zooms out to a continental scale. Now, every time you calculate the route, it becomes a new route. There should rather be a simple distance given by each route when in the list mode without having to recalculate each time.

I wanted to make travel plans and needed to know the distance between two cities, for that purpose this app is totally worthless.

The app looks great and is easy to use. Exactly what one would want from this kind of app. Very clear.

Suggestions 1. A version for iPad with better analysis would be very useful. 2. At the list, an Edit action with Rename, Rearrange and Delete options is necessary. Naming the calculated trips is the only way to be able to remember and find one in the list. Good start.

Although this is in early development, the direction it is going will be incredibly helpful for trip planning. Thanks and keep working!
