About Grid Square APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Grid Square app displays an 8-symbol Grid Square Locator (a.k.a. Maidenhead Locator, QTH Locator) value calculated based on the geographical coordinates obtained from GPS satellites and mobile network.Along with your current position, the app will show information about places of interest nearby -
radio beacons, lighthouses, national parks and call signs of the radio amateurs in the area.
In addition, geographical coordinates and altitude information is displayed, together with a compass for orientation. Accuracy - refer exclusively to horizontal dimensions.
The app uses two ways to determine the height:
Altitude - according to GPS data (Low accuracy)

The distance to your home location will be available after you set (remember) your home location. To do this, you need to use the application menu. You can change it anytime, anywhere.
The relative position of your current square among the neighboring squares, and distances to the borders of the square is displayed in an easy to understand, graphical form - you’ll be able to see the location of adjacent squares and sub-squares. The inscriptions are highlighted in yellow if you are in a sub-square, which is on the border with a large square. To see more details on the relative position of adjacent squares and your location inside the square, you can use:
- a map (click the button in the lower left corner of the screen). Internet connection required.
- graphical interface (click the button in the lower right corner of the screen).

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
