### 5/5 — Most fun you can have with a map

*2026-06-29, version 5.16.1*

I am a geography nerd that loves to travel. Being able to estimate distances with this app has brought me hours of fun, appreciation, and on occasion real good information relative to my travels.

I really appreciate this app and share it with as many as possible.

RRR

### 5/5 — Love

*2026-05-28, version 5.16.0*

I have used this app for a couple years.  It helps me plan my hikes, runs, walks.

### 2/5 — Seems inaccurate

*2026-05-01*

Nice idea, but seems to overestimate the distance by quite a lot, maybe because my finger-drawn line isn’t smooth enough.

### 5/5 — Cool app

*2026-02-25, version 5.13.5*

Love it

### 2/5 — Useful for short distances

*2025-12-30, version 5.13.3*

If you’re trying to measure long distances, be prepared to either pay for premium, watch an ad to continue measuring, or close the app and measure again. Other than that the app works pretty well with the ability to choose distance units and draw on the map conveniently with your finger.

### 2/5 — problem in map area

*2025-12-03*

south pacific and oceania map area is wrong also 
area above 60degree north in Eurasia is not working properly

### 1/5 — скатились

*2025-08-13*

просит посмотреть рекламу а в итоге рекламы нет

### 5/5 — Kayak Trips Tool

*2025-07-15, version 5.12.1*

Excellent tool for calculating river distances! I use it for planning kayak trips all the time. Works way better than the segment tool in google maps.

### 5/5 — Very Easy to Use

*2025-07-09, version 5.12.1*

Easy, accurate enough for most hiking, kayaking and biking treks. A very good aid for trip planning.

### 3/5 — Good app for distance however to much ads

*2025-06-25, version 5.12.0*

Decent app, really useful creating routes and measuring distance. I use it on a regular basis however the amount of ads there are (never had been a problem) now is ridiculous, every mile created there’s an ad and it’s jarring and it would be for 30sec which in my opinion too long for ads. Other than that it’s good
