Several years ago I bought a simple cogo program, QuickCogo. I occasionally use it, it works well when I don't want to have to load points into Carlson, etc.

I just got an email that now they have a version for the Android operating system. I just downloaded and installed the evaluation version on my droid phone.

I haven't had time yet to use it, but the introductory price is $29. Seems like a decent price to have a COGO program on the phone.

I had TDS cogo on my windows phone, it was always nice to have around when you wanted to do a quick comp. I actually found it very useful, especially since it could import point files. I don't think that this can import files, but that would be really useful.

Needs a heck of an interface improvement. Black letters on gray backgound is tough to see plus it feels like 1995 all over again with the layout. And for some reason it won't let me add coordinates with decimals which means it's worthless. Good find but I'll save my $30 and just use the data collector or HP33 as I can't imagine actually using something like this in the field.

> ... it won't let me add coordinates with decimals ...

Surely a mistake? Or maybe you have to work in mm!

Files CAN be imported now. I added it yesterday.

You have the EVALUATION version which limits input to whole numbers only. The production version doesn't have that limitation. The version I designed has a blue background with white lettering. Perhaps your device is not setup properly. Not sure what you expect out of a number crunching application...other than calculation results. If there are issues, please contact me and I will address them. Thanks for looking, anyway.
