Garmin GPS units have a nice feature (called "Sight N Go") to sight in a bearing line, and then you can navigate yourself along that line. The Garmin will tell you how much you deviate from that line so you can correct yourself. This is very handy if you see the rocket land in a vast sea of soybeans (ask me how I know), but the distance is unknown, and there are no other landmarks. At least you can walk on this infinite line and eventually stumble upon the rocket.
My old Garmin died. I can probably buy a used one on Ebay, but I was hoping to find a compass/GPS phone app with this same feature. Anybody know of one? I scoured the Google Play Store to no avail.
