Great app
Generally a good app for the work I do. Would love if yall could somehow make fieldmaps compatible with Apple CarPlay.
Bad
The app crashes quite often. Can’t download offline maps for any square footage. I try to load a map that is literally 100 sq feet and it fails every time. Horrible optimization and extremely unreliable online and offline.
What’s the point?
What’s the point of a mapping app that doesn’t record tracks? It requires running a separate app to record tracks. So just use the one other app and ditch field maps.
I will like to add that ESRI reached out to inform me they have a “stream” feature, which is their version of tracking. But it turns out you have to stop “streaming” to take a waypoint or view another map. That is extremely inconvenient. Other apps get this right. But ESRI continues to phone it in.
Only gets 1 star because no stars is not an option.

ArcGIS Field Maps records tracks into a location sharing service. You can also record a GPS log into a line or area feature layer using GPS streaming. No other app is required for either of these experiences.
Not very good
I use this app for work and it’s not very good at all. It has a ton of bugs, it’s frustrating to use, and we use it to cut wood so we need the dot to follow us, and it’s everywhere. You can never tell where you are. It has potential, but there’s been 1 or 2 updates in the past years with it, and it seems to get worse, never better. On behalf of everyone who uses this for working in the woods, get Avenza.

Picture upload
With recent updates, this fails almost every time I try to upload photos and several attempts to save are unsuccessful.
