View Coordinates as MGRS like iOS app
It would be awesome if we could change the coordinate view on the gaia.com version to display MGRS. I know there is a way to overlay MGRS grid but viewing waypoints in MGRS would be amazing just like on the iOS version.

Yes, please add the option to view grids in either/or. Displaying MGRS would be much better as Lat Longs are intended for nautical and aeronautical navigation, where massive ranges/areas are covered at much higher speeds.
This would be helpful, especially if you're trying to give your location to others. I would say no less that 8 digit grid.

Hey all,
Just popping in to clarify what sounds like confusion about MGRS grids.
It is currently possible to view an MGRS grid overlay in the app and on the web by following these steps:- Tap the Layers icon > Map Overlay > Grid Overlay > MGRS
More detailed instructions are available here:
This feature request is for adding compatibility for MGRS coordinates to the web. This is not currently available.
Click the "Help" button at the bottom of the screen if you have any questions. -
Yes, sorry for the confusion. It would be helpful to be able to drop a way-point and instead of displaying Lat/Longs it displays MGRS. The same could be said when entering an MGRS into the search bar, instead of displaying the equivalent in Lat/Longs display the coordinate searched in MGRS on the map.
