Entirely terrible

Navigation very difficult. Trip planner doesn’t seem to have workable save function

Response from developer

We are very sorry to hear you have had difficulties and we'd like to address your two points. 1) The whole concept of Strydr is for city walking navigation and the primary navigation tool is a pointer aligned to your destination. You have to buy into this first as the reason to use Strydr and if this idea does not work for you then quite honestly it's not the app for you. Think about the challenges of walking out of a subway exit and trying to decide which way to walk, we remove all the guess work out of the direction of your destination and liberate you from relying on turn-by-turn direction. NOTE: Strydr is dependent on your iPhone's location data, if this is not accurate or working at all then nor will Strydr, or any other navigation app for that matter. 2) Strydr uses the method of starring a destination to save it. In Trip Planner you first "Go to start location" (type in anywhere in the world, a city, address, point of interest) then " Search & star to save". You will see a star in the top right hand corner after you select a destination from the search results, simply tap the star then select the 'tick' to save immediately or select the 'tag' if you want to group your saved places. You will then find all your saved places in the 'Saved places' list. All this information is in the tutorial which appears on first install and you can get to from the settings menu item. I hope we can persuade you to try again :)

Excellent for big city navigation

GPS apps have always frustrated me when simply trying to find my way walking around big cities. This app handles it beautifully. Great! Used it in Philadelphia and made our weekend easy.

Love this app

Can’t live without it when I’m in NYC

trip planning is awesome!!

Saved me more than once

Love the pointer!!!!

Great app!

I’ve been using this for navigating around London doing the tourist sites.

The app is very user friendly and the navigation is very obvious and simple to follow.

Will be recommending to friends!

Excellent for the GPS challenged

Excellent for those visiting new locations, especially large cities. Send my daughters to Manhattan and they found everything. A great stress relief for me. No worries they would get Lost in a big city. They had a great time. Thank you!

A completely new take on navigation

I have been using this app to get around London since the first version. Loving V2 and I have not used Google for walking directions since installing.

Unique walking app

Have been using since beta version and love the pointer, so much more intuitive than alternative map apps. Version 2 is becoming far more feature rich and kudos to the team on this app!

Great waking app

Use this app when in town and find the pointer and all the UI great. Being able to share my location, get back to a location and save places for later is really well thought out - he detour feature also just works.

Love this app

Couldn't do without the pointer when walking around. Saved my life late one night when I could barely focus on the screen but could see he pointer and got me there - thank you Strydr!
