I want to give them my money but they refuse to take it

I’m trying to purchase the “Travellers Edition” which is a one time payment and includes all add ons. Says “Payment successfully” and right after that it says “Credit card has expired, please log in and update it”. A dialog window pops up asking for the password. Not sure which password it means, maybe Apple account password? Anyway card isn’t expired, so there’s clearly a bug. I tried a few times. Same error. See, I wanted to pay them, but they can’t even make the payment process work. Without the add ons, the app is pretty useless. Uninstalling.

Response from developer

Hello, the full payment process is fully covered by Apple via the app store, so this seems to be a problem related to your payment profile in the app store. Have you been able to solve it in the meantime? If know please contact us at iOS@placesbeen.net, so we can try to help you. Best regards

On the fence on this one

You have very limited functionality with the free version but it looks good enough to pay for it. However to buy everything its nearly 20 dollars. The killer with that is my wife would want a copy on her phone but this does not support family sharing, so now I’m looking at 40 dollars and thats a deal killer. So bottom line looks good but too costly.

Total waste of time

Nothing happens on anything I click on. Can’t add anything. Deleting app now.

Review

It’s a great app! I don’t like how certain things cost money. The app also kicks me out sometimes.

Hard to find access to add cities

Why is it so hard to access the map for adding more cities???

Misleading not robust

Very misleading I paid for addons and it still doesn’t work - don’t waste your money on this stupid app it looks nice but it’s not interactive and there is hardly any content

Traveler pack

I bought the Traveler pack at 25$ which is announced to include all add-ons and upgrades. But only a few items were added. You still have to pay for add-ons and the app owner is not responding.

States

I didn’t realize there was 107 states according to your info. I would think you’d be able to track states as well not just cities. Shame on you!

Response from developer

Hello, the world has more countries with states, not only in the US, thus the number. You can check your visited US states under "my places". Best regards

Good but could be better

Not all of the National Parks are enabled. I tried 3 different national parks and they wouldn’t come up and allow me to mark them. I purchased the park add on and they aren’t in it. The map is very small. Would be great to have a full screen ability.

Nice free features make me more likely to upgrade

The free features in this app are really well do e which gives me confidence that the upgrade will be worth it.
