### 1/5 — App may be a scam, in my opinion

*2023-11-24*

Attempted to use this App.  Didn’t seem to offer an option to create an account, so I selected: Log in using Google.  Other products then activate immediately, but this one wanted my Google Password.  I entered that, then it said it required confirmation from my old phone, so I confirmed from my old phone, then it said Log In Failed & wouldn’t allow me to try again using my Google Account. 

I can only conclude that it is trying to get me to log in using another of my accounts & that the whole purpose is to fish for information.  I’m quite disappointed, as I didn’t expect to encounter scams on the App Store & really liked what this app stated that it could do

### 1/5 — This App

*2019-08-13, version 2.0*

The app was useless. I downloaded this app because I needed to make myself a map for a game. I could not sign up at all, so I rate this app 1 star!

**Developer response:** We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with Draw Maps for ArcGIS. This edition of Draw Maps is intended for use with Esri’s ArcGIS, therefore it requires an ArcGIS Online Named User account. For people without access to an Esri ArcGIS Named User account we recommend our standard edition of Draw Maps also found on the App Store entitled “Draw Maps: Map Notes” (the one with the blue icon).

### 4/5 — Trying but...

*2020-11-03*

I’m unable to connect to our ArcGIS online account...alway get an error

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review. I am sorry to hear you are having trouble. Please reach out to us at mailroom@bluefieldgis.com so we can assist in getting you up and running with Draw Maps for ArcGIS.

The problem you are having is most likely caused by not having been assigned the 'Draw Maps for ArcGIS' resource from within ArcGIS Online. If you think this is the case, ask your ArcGIS Online administrator to assign Draw Maps to you under the 'Organization' tab in ArcGIS Online. If Draw Maps is not available to assign, your administrator may need to obtain licenses from Esri's ArcGIS Marketplace (free trials are available). If you know you already have Draw Maps assigned to you, there may be another problem you and I can work on together.

I have asked our staff to be on the lookout for your email. Again, thank you for your review. I look forward to you getting to try Draw Maps for ArcGIS. I think you will really like it once you get it working.

### 5/5 — Very excited about this app

*2020-05-14, version 3.0.1*

I signed up for a trial license for this app three days ago and started right in working with it on an iPad Pro. I had a little trouble setting up my first project on ArcGIS following the video and written instructions on the developers website, but was successful on the second attempt. I sent the iPad off with my very not-tech-oriented husband and business partner today after having given him a twenty minute orientation on using Draw Maps. A couple of hours later I logged into ArcGIS and was able to watch him drawing and making notes on the map in real time. It really is very simple to use and it does exactly what I needed it to do. We are very happy to have this available and excited to see what’s coming in the future with this app.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words. We plan to double down on our efforts to provide better documentation, especially for ArcGIS Online setup, but also for other aspects of using Draw Maps to its fullest.
