Needs update

Keeps crashing with iOS8, needs updated, soon please.

Has potential

Could be a very good app but unfortunately crashes on iPads 90% of the time after opening.
This happens on multiple iPads that I set up for my employees. Quite an expensive app considering it's lacking user reliability.
Still looking for a decent one!
Have not yet seen an update from them so possible taken the money and ran.

Program freezes

The software is good but it has a problem of freezing when im using my ipad! The app will not open wheni tap on it. So frustrating

Well Worth the Cost

Overall, I have to say I am very happy with this app. I was looking for a way to collect GIS information on my Apple based products (iPhone iPad), but remain within the ESRI .shp file environment. This app suited my needs perfectly.

Things that I love:

- Ability to quickly and easily import and export .shp files (very slick)
- Ability to create and share "feature classes". ArcPad and Terrasync have similar abilities, however they are clunky compaired to this.
- Costs a fraction of what ArcPad and Terrasync cost.
- Runs on iOS based devices. Checkmate. ArcPad and Terrasync run on windows mobile, which is esentially a dead operating system (as far as I know).

Poor support

Good app, spent over $300 expecting a working website and excellent support, but obviously I'm asking for too much.

Poor Support

Great software but poor support from developer. Issues with drawing poly lines when using external GPS; draws points from GPS but won't do poly lines. Have emailed developer numerous times with no replies so far

Geologist

I can't tell you how many times this app has come in handy in the field. I use it quite often to mark either existing or proposed sample locations and then email them in a KMZ file to the PMs. It is also nice that when sample locations are revised while a project is underway PMs can send out a new KMZ to be imported while in the field. This allows for nearly real time decision making. Being able to append photos to the sample locations adds another dimension to data collection.

My life just got a lot easier

Still new to the app, but have tested out many features and so far it has met, and often exceeding my expectations. Planning to be used for field data collection on fixed wing, helicopter, and ground missions.

An auto tilt feature (so your heading is always up) or even a simple compass along with a current heading display would make this perfect.

New user

I'm a new user of this app and think its a really good start. It has great import/export and drawing capabilities and a easy to use design. What it really needs though is direction and distance readings when drawing lines and polygons. Also, the measuring tool should also provide direction. This is hugely important for drawing property boundaries. Without this capability, it is dependent on data sets created in more powerful GIS software. With it, this could be an amazing tool well worth the price.

Versatile and intuitive

Provides clients and contractors a great way to visualize what we see in the field.
