## What's This ?



**Positional** is a location based app that utilizes the device's GPS and fetches various details of

the current latitude and longitude data like Altitude, Speed, Address and similar other information

and show it in easily understandable format to the user. Alongside this main functionality of being

a location app, Positional also provides a separate panel for **Compass** and **Clock**, and they

serve their own purpose as their name suggests.



**Compass** provides info related to direction and **Clock** fetches the time related information

based on the current location and time zone and also sun's information like Sunset, Sunrise,

Twilight and a good deal of other info.



On top of all the core functionality Positional is a highly polished app and provides another layer

of flexibility to customize the app as per liking including skins for Clock and Compass faces,

colors, and many other features that should have been there.
