Description of point8

point8 Android navigation app with Loc8 Codes for Ireland.

A simple, easy to use App (some in-app purchases available but all key features are FREE) which uses the very popular Loc8 Codes for navigating to places in Ireland (North and South). The app does not require any internet connection or mobile phone coverage to locate or create a Loc8 Code from your phone's positioning systems. Navigation with pre-installed navigation apps using onboard maps can also be undertaken without internet access or phone coverage. Loc8 Codes are a modern & useful alternative to the Eircode postcode for Ireland.

CONVERTING AN EIRCODE TO A LOC8 CODE USING point8
You can use the both STANDARD & PLUS versions of the app to convert an Eircode to a much more useful Loc8 Code. Install point8 first. Then go to Eircode Finder via the phone's internet service - enter a known Eircode - Click the Directions Button (at the bottom of the user interface) - select your installed latest version point8 app and the equivalent Loc8 Code will be displayed. You have now traded-in an Eircode for a much more useful Loc8 Code. NB:- as Eircodes often point to the wrong location/building or do not indicate the correct road access point, you should use the point8 MapTap feature to adjust to the correct location before sharing or Navigating to it.

Support for this app is available via Tel: +353 21 4832990 or by email to [email protected]

Loc8 Codes have been pointing the way across the island of Ireland since 2010!
