Where Am I: GPS & Altitude

Flying, hiking or driving? See where you are, how high and how fast, even in airplane mode. Record trips, see their charts, play them back and share them.

Look out the plane window and wonder where you are? Where Am I? shows your iPhone's live GPS readings in big, clear numbers: your position, your altitude above sea level and your ground speed. It works in airplane mode, with no internet and no account.

LIVE READINGS • Latitude and longitude, in decimal degrees or degrees, minutes and seconds • Altitude above mean sea level • Ground speed and heading • Accuracy for every reading, so you know how far to trust it • Metric, imperial or nautical units: km/h, mph or knots, meters or feet

SIGNAL YOU CAN SEE • A GPS antenna with signal bars shows how good your fix is • Lost the signal? The readings dim and the app tells you when it last heard from the satellites, so old numbers never look current • See the live update rate, about once a second

SNAPSHOTS • Save a snapshot of your readings to Photos, or share it with a map link

RECORD YOUR TRIPS • Start, stop, resume and save: record a flight, drive or hike • Keeps recording with the phone locked, and even if the app is closed • See each trip's distance, time, top and average speed, highest altitude, and total climb and descent, measured by your iPhone's barometer • Altitude and speed charts: tap any point to see the values there, and play the trip back from that spot • View the route on a map once you're back online, in standard, satellite or hybrid style, and color it by speed or altitude • Play a trip back: follow your car along the route with the speed, altitude and time at every moment, the whole drive in about a minute • With iCloud Drive on, your trips come back if you reinstall the app or get a new iPhone

SHARE YOUR TRIPS • Send a trip to a friend as a GPX file, by Messages, Mail, AirDrop and more. They open it in Where Am I? and see the route, charts and playback • Works with other apps too: open GPX tracks from other GPS apps, or import them from Files

SIRI AND SHORTCUTS • Ask Siri for your position, altitude and speed, even with the app closed • Start and stop a trip with your voice, the Action button or a shortcut • Touch and hold the app icon to start a trip or open your trips

ON CARPLAY • Speed, heading, altitude, position and the street and town you're in, on your car's screen • Start, stop and save a trip without picking up your phone • Or let it record every drive: a trip starts when the app opens on CarPlay and is saved when you get out

ON YOUR LOCK SCREEN • Turn on the Live Activity to see speed, altitude and signal on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island

MADE FOR THE WINDOW SEAT • GPS works in airplane mode, no in-flight Wi-Fi needed • Feet and knots for flying • Keep the screen awake, or save battery, your choice

PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your location stays on your iPhone. It's never sent to us. • Readings and recording work fully offline. The internet is used only to load Apple Maps when you view a trip, to show the street and town you're in on CarPlay (your position is looked up with Apple), and to keep your trips in your own iCloud • Your trips are kept on your iPhone, or in your own iCloud account if iCloud Drive is on. We never see them. A trip leaves your phone only when you share it • No sign-up, no ads, no tracking, no analytics

Readings come from your iPhone's GPS and are estimates. Where Am I? isn't for navigation or safety-critical use.
