Bad Elf Introduces Instant Accuracy

(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) EINPresswire/ -- Bad Elf today announced the Spring Release of its Bad Elf Flex ^® app, delivering a major upgrade to how field crews achieve and maintain centimeter‐level accuracy. The update introduces a simplified workflow for discovering and connecting to GNSS correction networks, reducing setup time and eliminating the traditional multi‐app configuration steps that slow down high‐accuracy data collection.

The update debuts Instant Accuracy, which automatically initiates and manages RTK corrections in the background the moment a Flex or Flex Mini connects over Bluetooth. At the core of the release is the new Correction Services Marketplace, a centralized hub for commercial and public correction services with pre‐configured settings and free trials from leading providers including GEODNET, PointOne Navigation, and Swift Navigation. Organizations deploying multiple receivers also gain new fleet‐ready tools to distribute NTRIP profiles via URL, QR code, or MDM, eliminating manual entry and reducing IT burden.

“This release is all about removing friction,” said Larry Fox, Chief Business Development Officer at Bad Elf.“Our customers want accuracy without complexity, and this update delivers exactly that. We've eliminated two major pain points: users no longer need to switch between apps to establish or maintain NTRIP connections, and RTK corrections now apply automatically in the background. The experience feels much more like a modern smartphone-you turn it on, and it connects to the network without any intervention.”

The Bad Elf Flex app is available for both Android and iOS through the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. For more information about compatible correction networks, visit the Bad Elf Correction Services Marketplace. Bad Elf provides firmware updates and the Flex app free of charge for all Bad Elf customers.
