So while I was waiting for my P2V to be delivered, I found a couple of iOS apps that I thought would come in handy.
Golf GPS.
I use this at times on the golf course. But it gives you a series of rings, each ring representing a different distance from your GPS location. Goes up to 300 yards or meters, whichever you choose in the settings. Just kind of gives you an idea of your range prior to flying. There's a free version with ads or you can get the $.99 version with no ads.
Zephyrcharts
This is a free app that gives you aeronautical maps. It uses your GPS coordinates so you can see where you are in relation to any nearby airports and you can quickly determine what part of the airport's airspace you are in. If you're not familiar with reading these, then there are some fairly short videos on YT that you can watch once and get what you need to get started to understanding.
What apps are you guys using, if any?
