Need to constantly redo it
The app doesn't remember what you have entered. If you close the app, it erases everything so you have to start all over!
Ads and clumsy interface
You get a countdown timer and then ads
Automatic adds 4 electoral votes to democrats
West Virginia button is broken and will always add its electoral votes to communist democrats. Just like in real life how democrats cheat, they also cheat on this app.
Great election map
History to view past election maps was a nice touch, I like the app a lot! It works great!
Awesome Election Day Map!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I really enjoy using this app for Election Day mapping! It’s great that I can check out historical maps—it’s super interesting to see how things have changed over time. The app works great and does exactly what I need it to do.
The new updates have made it way easier to use. It’s definitely my go-to for keeping up with elections. Highly recommend it if you want to learn about past and map the current election!
One thing I would like to see is being able to save the map I am working on, so when I go and look at past election maps and the 2024 one resets, I can “restore” my map to pick up where I left off!

Useful app
The fireworks were a nice touch that I wasn’t expecting.
Why a Timer?
I like the map itself, the color controls, and the fact that it’s even available. Three issues: (1) I just figured out why there’s an annoying timer - pop-up ads. Why is there no way to pay to get rid of the ads? On Nov 5 I will be following the election results on my iPad, but video ads popping up in this app (which is also on my iPad) are going to pause my television app. The “dismiss countdown timer” will delay restarting my tv app, and likely cause me to miss results. (2) This app doesn’t seem to offer “leaning”, where there is the ability to assign a lighter blue and a lighter red to the states that aren’t fully committed one way or another. (3) There is no way to contact the creators of this app for help or suggestions at the company website, even though it is suggested in several places. Until there’s a way to end the ads and the timer I probably won’t be able to use this app… I’ll continue using an app from the 2016 election that is no longer supported or available on the App Store, but is still on my iPad.
