While using field maps, I'm often trying to locate unknown features using a bearing and range from a known location. Other apps I have at my disposal will allow me to use a known location and apply the bearing in DMS and range to the unknown location to find a feature, but Field Maps doesn't have this capability, and the other apps require intermediate steps to bring data into my hosted feature layers. The closest option I have is to use the Compass tool which displays a direction as Decimal Degrees which isn't easy to convert to DMS on-the-fly. I would like the option to control how the compass displays both direction and distance in the mobile application. This would help keep my data centralized across my company's mapping ecosystem and streamline field workers workflows.
