  • Fantastic Offline Navigation

    I recently went on a camping trip in Colorado’s Collegiate Peaks and did a lot of hiking and trail running.

    I used the web app to pick out some potential dispersed campsites and created points that synced with the mobile app. I downloaded offline maps of the areas I planned to be and they were super helpful to locate campsites and find new trails. From the web app I knew the cell coverage was pretty spotty so I didn’t have to worry about checking for a signal to load a map which was a huge stress relief.

    This app has a lot of potential. I’m hoping for more trail coverage. Can’t wait to see what’s next!
  • Great app!

    I love all of the features on the website map. The app has the key features to access maps and a couple of layers off-grid. Looking forward to more layers in the app!

    Developer Response

    Thanks for the feedback! Hunt Unit and Wildlife layers are coming to the app in the next version.
  • Use the App correctly!

    It isn't too complicated but you have to use it correctly. I plan my trips on the web interface at home and then sync to my app. Once I get back into data coverage, it uploads to my profile.

    Easy, easy
  • Everyone else is right, this app is BUSTED

    I read the reviews where everyone said you were taken to a sign-in screen with no way to create an account. I thought I’d give it a shot, and they are right - there is no way to access this app directly from the app interface. Super-weak user experience and I can’t believe Apple let this in the App Sore... #instadelete
  • Map Downloads do not work

    First I tried downloading maps for offline use. Perhaps I had too many in the queue (about 7), but the downloading froze and would not resume even after closing app. I had to delete the app and reinstall. This time I downloaded one map at a time successfully. However, the next day all the maps I laboriously downloaded were gone and the app claims I have not downloaded any maps. Please fix as this app has the potential to become my new favorite and go-to for backcountry exploration. Thanks

    Update with version 1.1: Hi, after a week my downloaded maps were no longer saved for offline use. Do you automatically delete the data after a certain amount of time? Or perhaps they get deleted with a new version of the app is installed? Thanks
  • Can’t get in

    I just downloaded this for the first time. It says “welcome back” “please sign in to your pro account”. And a place for me to log in... nothing else. No sign up, no way to get out of the screen. I don’t have a pro account. I’ve never downloaded this app before but I guess I won’t be using it now since I can’t even get into it.
  • Awesome!

    I have a Gaia premium subscription and use it for overlanding and for scouting 4x4 trails and camp spots. This app is a great competitor. I like how the filters are arranged and how different elements and icons can be shown/hidden. A few kinks, but I think I will give this app a shot on my next trip!
  • New app, but growing!

    I love the web based app, I use it to explore hikes, dispersed camp grounds, scope out and map routes. The native app works great, and I’m looking forward to the new features they keep adding!
  • Can’t sign up for account

    It puts you in a sign in screen right away. There is no option to sign up for a new account. Doesn’t make any sense, you are required to sign in yet can’t sign up.
    I assume you have to go to website and sign up for account, that’s more hassle than I want to go thru to check out unknown app.

    Figure out a way to let me test drive right from the app and I’ll give it another try!
