Functional i guess

Still garbage, especially on the new 18 pro max. Can’t even finish a trip without the progress being lost. Gaia gps is way better. Don’t waste your money!

Aucune donnée GPS

Il est impossible de savoir nos coordonnées GPS à l’instant même où on est sur la carte seulement un point qui se déplace, je suis vraiment extrêmement déçu. Pour 40 $, par année, c’est vraiment très cher payé pour très peu de services donné par l’application.

Unusable

Doesn’t work at all. I was happy with the android version but this is completely useless

Look elsewhere

Clunky features, paywalls for most maps that uses some kind of strange credit system to pay for (why not just tell you how much it cost in dollars outright?) .
