Matt - AT Maintainer
We use this app while working on the AT. Wirjs wonderful for us. When we find something we need to tell someone else about, we take pic of map and send to proper person. Resolves the ‘where is it’ problem. Developer is a thru hiker and was a ridgerunner so tight with the AT
Abandoned?
Website and backend of this app isn’t working. Had high hopes!
Using for years now
Great app not bloated with useless features. Nor in app purchases
Response from developer
Thanks for the great review, LaVinci. We strive to keep Big Hike simple and useful. Happy trails.
Hoping for better.
I downloaded V0.0.14 to an iPhone 6s running iOS 12.4. The app easily locates me on a map and provides GPS coordinates but I can’t log in using google, can’t download maps (it says none are available even when standing right on the trail in the White Mtn NF) and get nothing searching for north or south waypoints. I had hoped for better or something more intuitive. Instructions are sparse.

Response from developer
Hi sundude, sorry the app didn’t work for you. It’s possible we were experiencing an outage which prevented you from logging in and downloading the White Mountains. Sometimes the initial log-in takes a long time, like 10-15 seconds. In any case, you’re correct that instructions need to be clearer. Call me at 914 907 7740 and I can try to solve the issue.
Sick map
This map is really great, best I've found for looking getting a picture of the whole trail.
