UTM Position Mailer
Detailed App Info:
Application Description
This is the easiest and most elegant way to share your UTM coordinates!
- Send your position as UTM coordinates via e-mail or SMS/iMessage
- A map link is included with the message
- The UTM coordinates and the GPS accuracy are shown as a tag on the map pin within the map link (only when using e-mail)
- The receiver can use the map link on a computer or ON ANY TYPE OF PHONE provided that it has an internet browser (Google Maps™ will open)
Note that some competitor products are creating a map link which will translate to a nearby street address. This is NOT done by this map. Instead, IT WILL ALWAYS SEND A MAP LINK SHOWING A POSITION WITH BEST POSSIBLE ACCURACY. Even though sending a link that translates to a street address might sometimes be convenient in cities, it can also lead to huge errors. Imagine, for instance, that you have decided a meeting place somewhere in a large park. Then it is not so smart if the app instead indicates a position on one of the streets that are surrounding the park. SO IF YOU WANT THE MAP LINK TO SHOW THE CORRECT POSITION, CHOOSE THIS APP.
UTM zones can either be handled fully automatically or entered manually as a one-time setting. (The latter may be a requirement in areas where maps are produced with non-standard UTM zones in order to avoid zone boundaries crossing a country or a map sheet.)
The supported datum is WGS84.
UPS is not supported, so this app is not usable in the polar regions.

If you are looking for an app with more features, you should have a look at the app "Grid Tool"!
"Grid Tool" will give you full support for coordinate conversions between UTM and latitude/longitude. "Grid Tool" is also providing a smart optical map reading tool and the ability to generate KML files for use with Google Earth™.
