I built a small Android app called ComeBackHERE: Find My Spot for a problem I keep running into: remembering exactly where I left something.

It is not a navigation suite. It does one job: save your current GPS location, then show you the direction and distance back to it.

What it does

Save your current location as a spot

See the direction to the saved point

Check the distance to it

Use GPS to help navigate back

No account required; saved locations stay on the device

Where I use it

Parked car: saving the spot in a large car park or an unfamiliar city

Hiking: saving the trailhead before heading into a forest

Camping: marking a campsite or a meeting point

Travel: keeping a reference point for a hotel or landmark

Why another location app?

Most of the time I do not need turn-by-turn directions back to my car. I just need to know which way it is and how far away it is.…
