Io ho un iPad Air MD787TY/A con versione iOS 12.5 ed ho acquistato il pro spendendo euro 5,49 . ### 1/5 — Unusable *2020-05-18* I bought this in hopes of making a custom flyover tour. But the app really seems unusable for what I need. First the tool bar buttons don’t show up, so I thought I had to upgrade to do a search, nope the button was just the same color as the tool bar. So I tried a search, but it never returns any results, and I can’t seem to save any locations. So I can move the view manually, but that definitely not what I want to do, could have done that with Apple Maps. Definitely feels like a waste of money. Would not recommend until they fix the tool bar at least. ### 1/5 — Need maps updated *2020-01-25* Condos were I live are not showing. They were build in 2013. So the map is outdated by at least 6 years. How can I rely on out of date map for a trip. I don’t complain about the condo but the reliability of the map to prepare a trip. Why making this app available if it doesn’t work with iOS? **Developer response:** While we understand the frustration of an outdated map, we'd like to remind you that the maps you see in this app are the Apple Maps displayed in the official iOS app, including updates. Therefore if the only problem was the outdated maps, we'd like you to remove this poor and wrong valuation. ### 1/5 — Please wait... *2018-12-03* Attempting to create the most basic movie ( 3 shots total ) the application pops up an upgrade advertisement on the screen and then tells you to wait. It’s unclear how long you are supposed to wait, although absolutely nothing happens after that, even after 10 minutes. One can only assume that the app doesn’t work. I’ll gladly change my review if thing thing actually did something meaningful after “please wait...”. **Developer response:** Update: version 3.3 removes this bug! Hi, we have been notified of this problem from another user last week. We are working on it. The problem seems to be related with iOS 12.0 and 12.1. We hope you'll change your stars once this will be solved. If you want, you might send us some infos (os versions, device type, etc) via email: info@socialmusicnews.com Thanks again and our apologies for this! ### 1/5 — Crash ancora prima dell'apertura *2018-08-25, version 3.0.1* l'app si blocca ancor prima di essersi aperta. (Ipad pro 2018) ### 1/5 — Dopo l’ultimo update su iPhone X iOS 11.4 non si apre *2018-07-01, version 2.4* . ### 2/5 — Great idea but no updates *2022-12-04* Love the idea of this but not sure it does anything you can do already in Google Earth and some places in Apple Maps. Also does not seem to be updated anymore? ### 2/5 — Trying too hard? *2020-08-24, version 4.0* Most places I tried to see were only partially rendered – even after a lengthy wait. I'm using latest version of iOS 12.4 with 64GB iPad Air. At no point did I even attempt a 'recording'. Some places would not render at all: Moab, Utah, USA, for instance. It's a good effort but I'm left with the feeling this app is slightly out of its depth. ### 3/5 — App misses some points *2021-08-06, version 4.0* This app is good for anyone wanting to send directions to any or an over view of the local areas. However. The only option to have the pictures is automatic. Ever-movement you make it captures. So hard to achieve the picture or location you require. Just a simple upgrade will improve this. ### 3/5 — Manca la condivisione *2018-02-23, version 1.7* Molto simpatica come idea. Applicazione fatta bene e fluida però... Però manca un tasto per la condivisione, l’esportazione o salvataggio del filmato! ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2018-10-01* For people like me who lived in several countries and continents Map Flight Genius is a wonderful way to revisit places and feel at home again. Very easy to use even without the tutorial. The quality of the video is astounding. A definite must have for people who travel like me or for people who cannot travel and want to see new places ### 5/5 — Idea stupenda! *2018-09-30, version 3.0.10* Molti fluida e facile da usare. Completa il concetto di mappe e soprattutto per chi vuole conoscere bene i luoghi. La caratteristica immersiva ti lascia scoprire ogni via... acquisterò la versione pro!! ### 5/5 — Estremamente divertente *2018-08-28, version 3.0.2* Uso semplice ed intuitivo. L’editor é fantastico.... un vero e proprio montaggio video professionale! Complimenti allo sviluppatore ### 4/5 — Come faccio a cambiare dalla modalità manuale? *2018-04-10, version 2.3* Bella app di complemento a documentaristica turistica la mia passione ### 4/5 — Carina.... *2018-02-25, version 1.7* ....ma non salva sul rullino. Promesso prossimi aggiornamenti. Arriverà 5' stella PLUS --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
