Unhappy with purchase

I am very unhappy with this purchase. I bought it specifically for a starter trial yesterday and it was not useful at all. It was no better than the paper courses they have at the show itself.

Can’t find courses

I like that I can take pictures and save my own courses. But I can never search any other courses. All I can find are the ones I made and saved. It’s very frustrating. I type in the search the show and literally nothing pops up. No spinning anything that looks like it’s thinking. No course at all. I can’t actually see any courses other than the one I made. And it didn’t even save the picture I took. Disappointing.

Stops working half way through course!

I love this app and have used it since 2018. I’ve never had any problems with it until recently…half way through my course I’ll go to take a picture of a fence and the screen will go white! The app then will not work and I end up having to delete the unfinished course and not use the app. It’s a bummer!

Have to repurchase with every use

Love this app, I purchased in 2017 and use it regularly BUT as of 2022 every time I try to log on to record I have to repurchase then go thru the hassle of getting a refund. Has happened all summer. A huge glitch that needs to be fixed.

Response from developer

This is not normal. Please contact us directly so we can help you. Make sure to use the same Apple ID as the initial purchase. This may be some issue with the App Store. We do not have any control over billing and payments.

Ok but cumbersome

The app idea is great.
Relying on Google maps or satellite is problematic because the course and its environment change much faster than Google updates their imaging.

Also, downloading maps could be less cumbersome if you could ask for all maps from an event at the same time. Then you would be less likely to download Prelim from the Spring when you need the Fall map.

Response from developer

We are sorry to hear that the Google Maps sattelite background is not helpful. We also provide the Bing Maps sattelite background. We are not aware of any other sources with better imagery. We will work on improving the search and download of courses by adding date ranges. Thank you for your feedback.
