### 4/5 — Gut

*2025-08-11*

Mir fehlt nur noch die Funktion, auch Videos hinzuzufügen

### 4/5 — Very Useful

*2025-08-05, version 7.7*

I love this app, I have one life of events here, please  keep improving the software, I always recommend this app.

### 2/5 — 昔のバージョンがいい

*2022-01-27*

二三年前のバージョンはいいだと思います。
現在のバージョンは英語しかできないし、写真も一枚しかできないです。

### 3/5 — Good

*2021-07-13*

For my needs mapping asset locations on a mine site it has potential. I would like a few more features. ie; share via message and opens to live map. Ability to create different coloured tags. 
In pins map taps opens to live map

### 4/5 — Great foundation

*2021-06-27*

This is a great foundation of an app! Now, an app that solely allows you to mark where you’ve been shouldn’t be very overly detailed anyway. This app does a great job of being minimal while still accessible.

However, a small minor complaint is that whenever I am pinning something, it is hard to move it around the map. Another suggestion is that I think we should be able to pick up and relocate preexisting pins, instead of having to delete, recreate, and retitle a pin whenever we missed the location the first time.

Other than that, it’s excellent! Thank you!!

### 2/5 — Where are the entrees I have made in Five yearsthe last 5 years on footprint!??!

*2020-10-19, version 7.7*

Five years of peangry
ns all over the world just missing now what happened to really angry

### 2/5 — A REVOIR

*2020-10-01*

Très bonne appli pour mémoriser et voir les endroits où on est allé grâce à des épingles-pins. Le principe des étiquettes ou tags est bien pratique pour regrouper des lieux épinglés d’un même voyage par exemple 
MAIS
1) si vous avez installé l’appli sur un iPhone et un iPad il N’Y A PAS SYNCHRONISATION entre appareils. Seul « sync to iCloud » existe 
             pas « from » ...
2) la modification ou la suppression des tags fonctionne bien sur iPhone 
MAIS PAS DU TOUT sur iPad !!!!!

### 3/5 — Multiple files

*2020-09-30*

As a technical instructor for an major automation manufacturer I traveled to 30 - 40 different cities per year in 36 states. I enjoy the graphic display of Everpin, but I wish it had the ability to create multiple files. I have been trying to map my business travels over the years, but after 11 years worth of data, Everpin bogged down dramatically. It would be nice if I could create multiple files to break down my mapping into smaller blocks of data as I would like to map the remaining 10 years of my travels.

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2020-02-07*

This app is truly amazing. The UI is indeed beautiful and it offers a one time payment which is very rare these days. But Please fix the crashing situation with more regular updates especially now that you have become a subscription based app has well.

### 5/5 — App needs internet connection

*2019-12-20*

The app is ok, but when travelling abroad without any internet dataplan, it is nearly useless, because you cannot drop a pin. The check-in is greyed out, when roaming is switched off.

### 1/5 — Can’t restore

*2026-08-09*

Can’t restore to premium after I change my IPhone. The compagnie is close and no support

### 1/5 — Lost everything

*2026-01-19, version 7.7*

Everything was in my app until I upgraded to premium and then everything was erased.

### 1/5 — Gulf of Mexico

*2025-02-11, version 7.7*

It is the Gulf of Mexico. Not whatever the orange, deranged convict wants to call it.  Be better.

### 1/5 — DO NOT UPGRADE

*2023-05-25, version 7.7*

I upgraded the app and lost all of my pins… years of history in this app erased because of I decided to pay for the upgrade. My wife and I are devastated, we’ll never be able to full remember all of our locations again.

### 1/5 — App is Dead

*2023-02-20, version 7.7*

No updates in years, but to add insult to injury, the app is full of really annoying bugs that make it almost impossible to use. When you add a photo, half the time it loses the photo. Sometimes it just loses the check in that you created for a location. Sometimes the location moves on its own. Horrible, horrible, horrible.

### 1/5 — Used to love the app

*2021-07-30, version 7.7*

I’ve used Everpin, or Footprint (the app’s original name) for years. I stopped using the app some time ago after an update which completely changed the functioning of the app. Now that the app has returned to its previous functions, I was extremely excited to starting using the app once again.

Now, a subscription is required unlike before, regardless of the face of me having already paid for the app. The website says to guarantee an access code to the previous paid users, though despite the various email I have sent, I have received no response and certainly no access code.

I’ve loved this app for years though now between these updates and the lack of response from the creators, it seems time to move on.

### 1/5 — Do not update IPhone

*2021-05-04, version 7.7*

I had information on this app for over 5 years of trips I just update my phone since yesterday Apple released a security update and now all my pins and tracks are gone.

### 1/5 — App was bought, I was screwed

*2020-03-06, version 7.7*

Bought the app years ago when it was called Footprint. Paid$4-5 for it. Gets bought and I can't access the features I had before

### 1/5 — Alle Daten gelöscht - All data deleted!

*2020-02-09*

Seit Jahren sammelte ich hier meine Reisedaten. Ohne Vorwarnung gab es einer Aktualisierung und meine kompletten Informationen waren weg. Trotz mehrere Versuche zur Kontaktaufnahme, gab es nie einer Rückmeldung. So enttäuschend...

I have been using this app since several years. Without any advice they updated the app and my whole personal information was deleted. I contacted them several times but nobody answered. So disappointing...

### 1/5 — Pin colors

*2019-12-29, version 7.7*

After spending many hours this last year, restoring the different pin colors for different activities as I had in the original app, I opened the app today to find them all reset to the default red. I had to upgrade to do this, and now all for nothing. DO NOT UPGRADE if you have the original, you will regret it. Twenty years of world travel GONE !

### 5/5 — Love this thing

*2025-07-05, version 7.7*

I’m always playing with it.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2023-10-13*

I love being able to see all the places I’ve been!  I’ve had no trouble transferring the data every time I get a new device, as another person wrote.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-07-13*

This is proving great for me, I’m using it to mark locations that I am setting bee swarm trap boxes. Think you know your local area fairly well until you venture of the main roads into the back blocks. Being able to leave notes relevant to location is great to, road name, property owner details.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2023-06-11, version 7.7*

The app was exactly what I was looking for, and the issue with not be able to sync with multiple devices is fixed.

### 5/5 — Support

*2022-03-03*

How do I export on another IPad…no support at all

### 5/5 — Love

*2021-07-03, version 7.7*

I was looking for an app exactly like this and I found it last year. It is soo easy to use and you can add pin and track where you have been so easily. Highly recommend this app if you want to document your travels or day trips. 

One thing I would add is places you want to go so you can change the pins as you go.

### 5/5 — Great

*2020-10-15*

Love it, but I think different colour pins would be even cooler

### 5/5 — 自分の記録が作れる

*2020-08-14*

行ったところに画像と共にピン付けできるので
とても便利です。
以前、インスタグラムにあった機能のような感じですが、自分にしかわからないため
誰かに見られるという心配もありません。

### 5/5 — Change of what I paid for

*2020-05-16, version 7.7*

It never changes more money for
           LESS SERViCE
    GOOD BYE

### 5/5 — Where I am going and where I have been

*2020-03-10, version 7.7*

Love it but would like an option for 2 different kinds of pins-1 for where I’ve been and 1 for where I’m going
