GPS/Land survey app suggestions?

I'm looking for a Android app that would be suitable for the following:

I'll be walking around an oddly-shaped parcel of land. I want to pinpoint and record the GPS coordinates at each of the corners that make up the border. It would be nice, but not critical, if the app could also calculate the total acreage of the area I walked, and present it in map form.

Any suggestions?

 

Found one: Geo Area.

Personal spend: Amex Gold, Amex Schwab Plat., BofA PR+CCR(x2), Costco
Business use: Amex Bus. Plat., BBP, Lowes Amex AU, CFU AU
Perks: Delta Plat., United Explorer, IHG49, Hyatt, "Old SPG"
Mostly SD: Freedom Flex, Freedom, Arrival
Upgrade/Downgrade games: ED, BCE
SUB chasing: AA Platinum Select

Re: GPS/Land survey app suggestions?

Just keep in mind that the GPS units in consumer handsets are wildly inaccurate.

 

It's not as noticable on marked streets, as the mapping apps tend to do a "snap-to" on the most likely street.

 

But out in the middle of a field? Expect 1m-10m fuzziness. Even worse if under tree cover.
