### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2026-08-14*

Recommend when traveling by atv. Would like to be able to select morw then once piece of equipment per trip. Tracks unit mileage as a running total which is very nice. Has got me out of a pinch many times.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We are always working to improve the app.

### 2/5 — CarPlay

*2026-04-29*

Having trouble getting the CarPlay to work with this

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comment. Our app isn't compatible with CarPlay at this time, but we've added it to our wishlist for future release.

### 5/5 — Great app.

*2026-03-19*

Love the app and what you doing. Keep on improving it.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your great review! We hope the app will continue to improve and amaze you.

### 4/5 — Trail app.

*2026-01-02*

Good app. Just downloaded not long ago. Can’t wait to try it out on the trails.

**Developer response:** Welcome! We hope you will find happiness using the app on trails!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-12-04*

A must have when riding NS trails

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for your rating and safe rides :)

### 1/5 — This App sucks for “Traked” rides

*2025-10-26*

This app sucks for track rides. It tracks the ride just fine, but it won’t permanently leave it on the screen for you like Gaia or Polaris ride command. You can make your tracked rides appear, but you have to go into your profile and select each one, but if you touch the screen, they disappear. I am very disappointed in this app because of this.. They need to update this app ASAP to be able to leave all your tracked rides on the screen without them disappearing just because you touch the screen. I use the feature to track my rides to map out trails that are not in these apps, so this app is pretty useless for that.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you for your comments! To view your tracked rides, tap the search icon and then select "My Rides." From there, you can activate the toggle next to the rides you want to display. This allows you to choose which recorded rides to see on your map by enabling or disabling them. You can display multiple rides at once, and they will stay on the map even if you pan it. Ride safely!

### 5/5 — ATVANS app

*2025-06-21*

### 5/5 — A must have for riders!!

*2025-03-16*

Get the app and up your riding game and take experience to another level. Very accurate, and extremely easy to use. Trail tracking in real time and a very clear and concise map. Nicely done!!

**Developer response:** Thank you for recommending our app. We appreciate it a lot.

### 5/5 — Very Helpful

*2025-01-06*

Great App very helpful when planning your rides

**Developer response:** We are happy to know the app is helpful to you in planning your rides. Thank you for sharing it with us!

### 5/5 — Only thing

*2025-01-04*

People should be able to put input on the trails and comment. Also if there’s a trail not marked people should be able to mark it for all to see. Just and opinion

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your comments with us. We keep your suggestion on our wishlist for future improvements to the app. Best regards
