*2025-12-05, version 1.9.2*

Trying to create an account and use the app however i keep getting the prompt notifying me there is no internet connectivity. 
Tried on mobile data and at home on the wifi with no luck. 
Unable to use the app unfortunately.

### 1/5 — It wont even load

*2025-05-19, version 1.9.1*

Just drops out when trying to start, I installed/reinstalled downloaded off/on etc. Cant even contact them, no phone number. I think because my iphone is latest and up to date.

Does the app need upgrading to work? Cannot get it to function on 18.3.2

### 4/5 — Ok, but…

*2024-12-03, version 1.9.1*

App functions pretty well, overall really happy with its performance, however the lack of landscape mode is puzzling?would also love to see a CarPlay version ;)

They appear not to have paid their licensing and now their maps don’t won’t at all, app is effectively useless - DO NOT BUY

The app doesn’t work, the main screen shows a license expired message

Crashes when I try to upload GPX files

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2024-09-29, version 1.7.3*

Downloaded only to open it and app closes constantly

### 1/5 — Crashing.

*2024-09-10, version 1.7.3*

Can not open app at all, crashes within a few seconds. Heard great things about the app. A bit disappointed that I can’t even use it.

### 2/5 — Won’t come up with apple car play

*2024-08-10, version 1.7.3*

This app doesn’t work on apple car play, I haven’t been able to get support, I sent an email and never received a reply, I have just deleted my subscription as it’s useless to me without this feature and there doesn’t seem to be any help

### 1/5 — No longer working

*2024-07-21, version 1.7.2*

I have used this app for a number of years. 
Suddenly I am unable to access it on my phone (despite recently paying my 6 month subscription and trying all of the ‘fixes’ in the help documentation. 

I also contacted help a number of days ago with my issue and have received no response. 

If I tap the icon on my phone it tries to open the App Store and then crashes. If I try and open via the App Store. It crashes.

### 1/5 — Won’t work

*2024-07-12, version 1.7.2*

App won’t open on my 15promax. It just shuts off within 1 second.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2024-05-12, version 1.7*

As a gps it works, as a tool to uploading gpx tracklogs it does not!
I’ve followed the tutorial, it says it’s uploaded the gpx files, then all I get in tracklogs is the original tracklogs I imported copied multiple times. 
I’m over it, if I was using the free version I wouldn’t care, but I paid for a product that don’t work 
Save your time, and just pay the extra for gaia people.

### 1/5 — Used to be handy

*2024-01-11, version 1.7*

I used this for a few trips a few years ago and it was super handy but from about a year ago it just crashes and is useless. Just updated and still crashes before you even see a map

### 1/5 — WAS great now useless

*2026-07-05, version 1.9.3*

This app WAS fantastic now however now it is useless. 
I was a user for a long time. Due to private reasons I had to stop the subscription but when I started it up again, they were ok to take my money but IMPOSSIBLE to contact to ask why I cannot update the maps. 
You have to “login” but the message say that “you don’t have permission to log in” and the only way to get help is to “login” which I can’t because I don’t have permission. Who’s brain-fart of an idea is that? I can’t even ask to get my money back. So effectively all communication with them is blocked. Absolutely fantastic idea-NOT.
Apparently it is FOR SALE. 
Just click on the app support button and look at the answer you get.

### 1/5 — password reset

*2026-02-03, version 1.9.3*

password reset does not work so It locks you out once you pay your subscription

### 1/5 — Contour lines have vanished

*2026-01-12, version 1.9.3*

Usually a good and reliable off road topo tool. Then the contour lines vanished and have still not reappeared in the latest version that I downloaded this morning. No support from either Billygoat or Apple. Will be cancelling my subscription shortly.

### 1/5 — Apps fried

*2026-01-09, version 1.9.3*

No help available, not paying for it again after all these years as it’s not usable in the way it’s supposed to no still not fixed

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2026-01-05, version 1.9.2*

Unable to log in to the app or create a new account. Support domain is for sale. Guess this app is no longer supported.

### 1/5 — Can’t sign up.

*2026-01-04, version 1.9.2*

Tried many times to sign up but keeps saying it failing.

### 1/5 — Whats happened to the maps??

*2025-12-31, version 1.9.2*

Just renewed subscription and updated maps, and has watermark blocking the screen saying cartotype licence expired 2025-11-25

### 1/5 — APP DOES NOT WORK!

*2025-12-28, version 1.9.2*

App is in dire need of fixing, can’t open the app, automatically boots you out of it.
Still after years have passed this app is still the same if not worse!  DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS APP. Developers still don’t get it, maybe if they read the reviews they might get what’s wrong with it!

### 1/5 — App not working on my phone

*2025-12-17, version 1.9.2*

I originally used this app for years, but a few years ago it stopped working and would constantly shut down, so I ended up deleting it. I’ve tried reinstalling it a few times over the years, but the same issue kept happening.

I’ve just re-downloaded it again — it initially did the same thing, but I managed to get past that. Now it won’t let me log in due to an “internet” error.

What’s frustrating is that when the app first stopped working, I had just purchased six months of premium. I’d really like to be able to use this app again.

### 1/5 — App has hung

*2025-07-13, version 1.9.1*

The App is sitting mid download and not responding in the App Store

### 5/5 — Good things must come to an end

*2025-11-13, version 1.9.2*

I’ve been using this app for many years and have been very happy. Now is very glitchy and cannot import files or backup files server is always not available. Over it so changing over to another app. Seams this one is fried.

### 5/5 — Happy Customer

*2025-09-22, version 1.9.1*

Tested the App over the weekend with a trip done everything it said it can do , very happy customer

### 5/5 — Nice free features

*2025-01-27*

I appreciated loading this up for a decent free Topo of Wilson’s Prom np in Australia for a trip we did on short notice.   Liked the offline location feature n the map as well

### 5/5 — Billy goat review

*2025-01-25, version 1.9.1*

Such an awesome app can use free option or paid and both are amazing love the app

### 5/5 — Would love car play support!

*2023-09-12, version 1.6.28*

This app seems to be great - it does everything that I want and feels quite easy to use. The hema map downloaded really easily.

The one thing I’d love is to have support for apple car play so I can use it more easily while driving - even if you can’t interact with the app just having it displaying there would be fab. I haven’t found a 4wd app that can do it yet so it would be amazing!

### 5/5 — Excellent Maps and tracking

*2023-07-24, version 1.6.27*

Billy Goat is an excellent way to plan and track your tours off-road. A recent Victorian High Country Tour was a great place to test it and it worked flawlessly, offline and with no glitches or hesitation. It was easy to mark tracks, places of interest and place pins with my own labels to help with navigation. Some of my crew were using Hema maps but we found that this was similarly accurate and I often found myself in the lead navigating the group through the wilderness. The ability to also record your route for future review is fantastic! Well done Billy Goat!
Much cheaper subscription than other mapping software as well. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Rebranded Mud Map

*2023-01-12, version 1.16.20*

It looks like this is mud map rebranded. I have had Mud Map since they were first released and purchased every update but now it seems Mud Map has been backbenched as it’s suffering glitches and there doesn’t seem to be any updates for a long time. So is this what is expected make mud maps unusable so Mud Map users are forced to pay a subscription??? If you’re looking for an Offroad map app, then this would be by far the best, when Mud Maps was at its peak nothing compared and it looks like all the updates and tech have gone into this rebranded BillyGoat app. So this will be your best option, I’m just not a fan of subscriptions. Forget Hema and all the others, you will be disappointed. My Gripe is that it appears the developer has turned its back on Mud Maps as it isn’t a subscription based app whereas BillyGoat is on a subscription bases. Let’s see what response we get from developer?

### 5/5 — Outstanding app for 4WD!

*2023-01-03, version 1.16.20*

After using a number of alternatives, all of them Lacked one or two must have features. BillyGoat was recommended to me by a fellow 4WD club member. Having used it for 6 trips over the past two months, I’ve come to the conclusion that this is the pick of the bunch. Its maps and campsite libraries are hugely detailed. The app is very easy to use and includes all essential features. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Excellent app for 4WDing and camping

*2023-01-03, version 1.16.20*

I’ve been using BillyGoat for 3 years now and it’s never left me down. Ive tried other apps but none of them have the level of mapping detail with all the 4wd tracks like this one. The app itself is user friendly and approachable. A must have for any 4wder

### 5/5 — Won’t open

*2022-09-26, version 1.6.14*

Having trouble app won’t open is there a problem I don’t want to delete it and reinstall loose all info pls help Darryl
