### 5/5 — quick and easy resource

*2026-01-15*

So many hidden access points that the app displays. Very cool.

### 2/5 — Incomplete.

*2024-08-08*

I got this to have an easy way to find access and it has very few in areas that I know of many.  This app is far from complete. Refund please.

**Developer response:** The app currently locates 623 public tidal-foreshore accesses in the Capital Regional District (CRD) of British Columbia, as stated in the description. Southern Gulf Islands and other BC coastal regions are in development. 

A text banner near the top of the screen says how many of the total accesses are displayed. If you are not seeing all 623, tap Clear & Apply on the Filter screen.

If you are not in the BC-CRD, then what area do you want to find accesses for? Please contact us to see if we are expanding to that region. Your feedback will help us improve the app. Thank you. info@beachaccess.ca

I hope the above info is helpful. If not, contact Apple to request a refund https://reportaproblem.apple.com
