Simple GPS Software

Hi
Are there any simple offline GPS softwares? I'm looking for a software which gives me my coordinates, speed and the direction which I'm going, but doesn't need online maps. Smart2go can be used offline if you downloaded some maps, but somehow it doesn't seem that accurate.
I've been only able to find non-free aplications which are a bit outdated.
Thanks.

Can Google Map do that?

Nope. Google Maps complains about not being connected to the internet I open it.

Sorry double reply...

Why not use the TomTom GPS driver from version 3 this will do everything you ask for http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=13

Hiya: I use Noni GPS Plot; it's still a beta application I think, but it's very useful when I'm walking. It's a bit like an old Garmin I had - you can set a waypoint, wander around (and it draws a track behind you) and set co-ordinates to head back to the car when you're done.
You can input maps but you don't have to.

[APP][Foursquare]CheckInReminder -- Benefit you and me

Hi All:
Try CheckinReminder at google play.
checkin-reminder.net/
Inspired by some friends' complaint about always forgetting to check in, we came up with this neat app to remind foursquare users to check in at any place they visit. To serve this need, we design a smart algorithm to detect when the user stays in a place using smartphone sensors. Our algorithm can intelligently turn on/off GPS and other sensors to maximize user's battery life. We believe many Foursquare users will benefit from our app, especially those who are fighting for mayorships. To refine our algorithm and make our app better serve users' need, we collect some anonymized location information for research use.
How to use:
1. Link CheckinReminder with your Foursquare account. It will run in the background afterwards.
2. If you stayed at a place, and when you are leaving, a notification will pop up. Click the notification to check in the recommended place immediately, or click the 'Search Around' button if you prefer a different place.
3. You can choose the type of alarm in the app.

Hello, can you please provide a link to the app? Even if you say its on google play its always good to provide a link, specially for new apps since they dont always show up when searched for.
Thanks.

Link provided thank you
Thank you for reminding, as I'm a new user here, I would not be albe to add external link in my post.

A friend and I have been working on a brand new app called Runnur that tracks your physical activities like running, walking, biking, hiking etc. App development is completely new to us so we have been learning as we go.
The app is at a point where we think it is ready to go for beta testing so we have a google+ community setup so people can sign up as beta testers and download the app from the playstore.
Here is the link to become a beta tester - https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/114517696930678644046
1) Join the G+ community
2) Click the link in the info page to become a tester
3) Download the app from the play store
Please check out our app and offer any feedback you have! Looking forward to your comments!

It seems nice that you developed this app, but maybe you can explain in short what is this new plan to track your activities?
The app description is missing I'd say.
Keep ot going.

Well for one, you can map out your path ahead of time. In the mapping screen, you just place markers along a path you wanna run and save it. We will soon be adding challenges so you can plan to run so many miles in so much time and the app will help you with that.

[APP][4.0.3+] VoiceFlick - use your voice to get funny animations

Hi,
I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but I want to share some website & Android app I made.
Last year I thought about how it would be fun to just speak to my laptop/phone and get animations in return.
When I looked for such a website, I couldn't find it, so I made it myself:
voiceflick.com
I also made it into an Android app:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.voiceflick.voiceflick
My nephews and nieces love it , I hope other people will also enjoy my website & app.
I made it just for fun, it has no ads, or anything else that will bring me profit.
The website only works on Google chrome, because it uses Chrome's built in speech recognition.
This was the first time I ever made an Android app, so there might be some bugs
If something doesn't work, please let me know, and I will look into fixing it
All feedback is welcome.
I hope you will have fun with it

More info about the app:
To save battery, VoiceFlick only records while you hold the mic-button.
All returned animations are appropriate for all ages.
The animations are rated G: General Audiences – all ages admitted.
VoiceFlick uses Google App for speech recognition.
So if something doesn't work, please check if Google App is installed and working:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
The voice records are not send to VoiceFlick, it is processed by Google App, (Google App can be configured to use offline speech recognition).
