### 1/5 — Creator is a conspiracy theorist

*2025-12-18*

Used to be a great program, but it looks like the creator has his tin foil hat just a little too tight.

### 1/5 — Downhill

*2025-10-18*

This app used to be decent when it cuse an aerial photo. Then suddenly, the only option is like a Zillow view. This morning it was with the aerial. Now suddenly, it’s Zillow. I’m finding a better app, even if it costs more.

### 2/5 — User

*2025-09-03*

Pop ups are a pain. Always have game ads or others that you can’t x out of

### 3/5 — Used to be great

*2025-04-16*

I use this app everyday but I’m about to find another one. The amount of Ad’s I have to sit and wait on is insane. I can deal with a 5 second add and hit “x” when it’s done. No biggie. But now they are 1-2 whole minutes and it’s incredibly annoying

### 1/5 — Too many adds

*2024-12-03*

To many adds, makes it useless now

### 4/5 — Very close to the website

*2023-04-10*

Besides the intrusive ads, this works pretty well! I like that you can save measurements.

### 1/5 — Everything you hate in a app

*2022-06-18*

Like many here, I used to live this app. I've had it for a long time. It's gotten progressively worse over time. Currently when I search a location the app shows a discover card ad with the X close feature right over the battery indicator on my iPhone. Which has made it impossible to close the ad. Clearly they are trying to force you to 'get' another paid app to use their app. I understand commercials, but this is some next level bullying garbage. Don't waste you time. So sad, the developers should be ashamed

**Developer response:** A lot of users still love this app. Regarding the not closeable Discover card ad: I and other users reported that ad to Google AdMob multiple times. It took a while, but it seems it finally disappeared from their system. I did everything I could to get that ad removed in a timely manner. That ad did not appear in my Google AdMob admin moderation panel to Block for whatever reason, and I had to file a bug report about the actual admin moderation panel. AdMob support is not very quick to react. Also on any AdMob ad, you can report it, even if it is not closeable by clicking the Info button. The more reports, the better, if the ad is not closable. As the developer, I am certainly not trying to bully you, nor is Discover IMHO. It was just a glitch. I am not ashamed of my work on this app.

### 1/5 — Website good, app bad! *Ad vomit*

*2020-05-13*

I used it a few times no problem. Just tried it again several times, and it shows me ads that take up the whole screen and I can’t make go away, so I literally can’t use the app. Never encountered this before, and I’m a tech-savvy 29-year old. However, the website works well, so I recommend that.

**Developer response:** Yeah, there were some bad ads in the system related to mortgages. Certain ad providers were abusing the system. I banned them all the best I could. Please continue to refer bad ads to me via email and I will ban them all. I will keep a closer eye on it. Thanks for the report.

### 1/5 — Don't waste your time- No customer support!

*2019-10-19*

App worked great at first! It used to be quick and easy but like other reviews said it's no longer a quick and easy tool. I was having issues with app crashing and emailed the developer about the issue. I didn't realize my phone had stopped auto updating but that was unprofessionally pointed out by the developer! I've posted his response below:
Sir,

You are not even on the latest version of iOS 12.... You're on iOS 12.4.1. The latest of that track is 12.4.2. And that doesn't even mention iOS 13 the rest of the world is on. Why don't you join the times rather than complain in a juvenile matter?

- David

### 1/5 — Ads

*2019-09-26*

Used app everyday and loved it. Now you cant even look up a address till you watch a stupid ad. And if no ad is available you will have to wait! 1 star till they get rid of ads
