• Multiple bug fixes • Various app improvements • Coding for future updates • UI & performance refinements *A Note from Jonathan (Creator of Tactical NAV)* What’s up, guys. Jon here. I like to keep things real with you, so I appreciate you taking a moment to read this. As many of you know, I built this app downrange as a Field Artillery Captain in the Pech and Korengal Valleys of Afghanistan, and I’ve carried that mission with me ever since. TACNAV-X was born out of my commitment to honor the brothers we lost in 2010 and 2011. For me, this will always be more than software. It is a living tribute to their memory. They deserve nothing less. In this update, drawing mode is still completely free. It was previously an in-app purchase, but I don’t want there to be any barrier when you need it most, or for anyone to feel they’re being taken advantage of. Offline mapping remains available as a one-time purchase or subscription. That support is what allows me to pay my developers, maintain updates, and keep TACNAV alive. Nothing more. I’ll also be honest with you. I’ve been dealing with some significant health issues lately. Continuing to build and support this app is how I stay grounded and keep going. Bottom line, I appreciate the prayers, support, and well wishes during this time. If you have ideas, requests, or just want to reach out, you can always email me directly at [email protected]. Thank you for the trust, the support, and for believing in this app, and in me. Appreciate you guys! - Jon
