Great in general, but lacks landscape support
I love this in general, though it’s very frustrating to me that it doesn’t support landscape mode — I almost always want to view the map in landscape.
I use an external GPS logger and import the resulting GPX files, so I can’t speak to the experience of tracking directly in the app itself.
The gamification aspects are more minor annoyances to me; I’m sure that some people enjoy that, but I wish I could completely disable it.
And I would love some more features, like the ability to tag/categorize tracks and show/hide certain ones. (For instance, I’d love to be able to show only train trips, or only road trips, or only hikes. I wish I could import flight paths when I travel, but most of the time I don’t want those to show on the map.)

Uses huge amounts of data
Burned through 5GB of data in less than a week. I wasn’t driving hundred of miles, either. Not worth the hit on my data plan.
Good app, needs improvements
Great concept and a fun app to use. Some sort of ‘erase’ function is needed (for when the gps jumps around and leaves random dots/lines on the map). There is also lots of inaccuracy around international borders which is annoying (e.g. “uncovering” territory in the wrong country). Once these are addressed I’d happily give it 5 stars!

Big improvement over Fog of World
Nice that it can import GPX and KML. Also, it's cool that altitude and speed are tracked.
Exactly what I was looking for
Wanted an app to track my travels around my city and this does that and more. Really pleased with it and more than a bit addicted to uncovering new routes. Thanks for making it.
Awesome so far!
This is actually a GREAT APP if you want to keep track of where you've been! I also like how they turned it into a game! So much fun!
One suggestion, if you can log every trip with a screenshot/overview of that one specific trip and then log them into a tab, that would be great so I can see the distance/path for every individual trip I take. It's confusing to see trip summary and then all the blue lines from where you've been prior.
The second that's implemented this app will be pretty high on my list of favorites and will get a full 5 star!

Fun app
I downloaded this app a few weeks ago and have been out exploring all the roads around my area. Roads I'd never be down usually. App tracks my location accurately and tells me my speed, altitude etc...
Even helped me find a local shop that I'd never have known about otherwise.
Highly recommend!!!

Junk
Paid for full version. Will not link to Dropbox. Nothing but a black screen. DO NOT purchase
Liked it but...
Good looking graphics. No apparent progress during the trip i.e. how far have I travelled so far. Good summary at the end of trip but then it was gone and I can't seem to get it back on screen
Not free
Seems free but they require money to keep using after a few uses.
