It was consistent and adequate for what I needed, very detailed and had everything you need! Well laid out app. My review is 2 stars as after updating this app I’m stuck at a paywall for a subscription to gain access. Would rather google the questions I have than pay for that. 9.99 one single further payment after already paying for the app is a steep jump and 9.99 as a monthly fee is not worth it in my opinion. **Developer response:** hey there, please join discord for support and ill restore that for you ### 4/5 — I can’t cross an item off the map *2026-02-07* I’m trying to remove an item like the katana for example, from the map since I’ve completed it how do I do this ### 4/5 — Great but can’t cross off boxes *2025-12-23* When you bring up the places and gear you can’t tick the boxes to say you have done them ### 4/5 — Needs update *2025-12-05* Great app but the cave view showed a different cave layout than the in game map so it kinda made this app useless **Developer response:** the app has been fully updated! ### 4/5 — Sprache *2024-03-04* Leider nur alles auf Englisch deswegen nur 4 Sterne bitte macht es auf Deutsch umstellbar ### 1/5 — Crashes *2023-10-29* It crashes like every 5 seconds or when you click something **Developer response:** hey its been a while since your review, would you mind updating and letting me know if you still have issues? id love to earn a a higher rating ### 3/5 — Decent, But outdated *2023-06-22* This is an easy enough to use map, I’ve always loved using it to dream up some nice base locations in advance. However SOTF has since added a lot of lakes to the map and the map has not updated to reflect that which has made it innacurate to use for a while now. The new items have not been added yet either. If you’re looking for a good map I would look elsewhere for now **Developer response:** Hey it’s been a while, I don’t know if you’ll see this, but, would you consider updating the app to see if it meets your expectations now? Would love to earn a higher rating ### 3/5 — It's alright *2023-03-11* Not many options compared to online versions like mapgenie, but I see the potential. I'll try it out again in a few months. **Developer response:** What do you think now? ### 2/5 — Crash *2023-02-28* L’appli plante tout le temps **Developer response:** Hello, would you mind updating the app and letting me know what you think now? ### 4/5 — What you need *2023-02-24* This is a great guide but Like for the shotgun you need the shovel but it doesn’t tell you you need one until you actually arrive there especially if you come from all the way across the map just for it but can’t actually get it. ### 1/5 — Zero content *2023-02-24* This app has zero content for SOTF, but the app dev will use push notifications to make false promises about adding items. **Developer response:** Hey, it’s been a while since your review. I’ve added all the content, and made the app better. Would love to earn a higher rating ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Was good until it became paid *2026-08-03* Bs ### 1/5 — Greedy dev/paywall. *2026-08-02* Everything is locked behind a paywall now like the information isn’t free on the web. Was a great app before, used it often. The greed is sad. ### 1/5 — Payment *2026-07-30* You have to pay now🫩 ### 1/5 — 1 star *2026-07-29* It cost money now ### 1/5 — Paywall *2026-07-28* Nachträglich wurde ein Abo für die App eingeführt, für die ich ohnehin schon etwas bezahlt habe. Das ist ein interessanter Versuch mir Geld aus der Tasche zu ziehen. ### 1/5 — Really? A paywall? *2026-07-27* Now it’s behind a paywall? ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2026-07-20* Now there’s a forced subscription ### 1/5 — Bought the whole app now doesn’t work after the update *2026-07-20, version 3.0.1* This is not a good companion app, I bought it without looking before because I want to help out fellow developers. This app has very basic functionality, low to basic, not enough to pay for it. Hopefully the app update will make the app a better app, otherwise, money lost, wasted time. Edit: what do you mean what could you do better? I bought your app fully and after your BIG update, now I have to buy it one more time or I can’t use it. You took my money and didn’t give me the goddamn product. And why link your twitter when you don’t even reply on your own post when a user needs help? ### 1/5 — Lost access after update and price increase *2026-07-16* I paid for a life long membership and then lost access after you updated and changed price. I’m going to contact Apple and my credit card company if this doesn’t get resolved. I messaged the discord channel and received no response. **Developer response:** hey there, please come back to discord and ping @robo i will help you ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-07-16* Everything is locked behind a paywall **Developer response:** hey there, I wish to earn a little money for my time and work on this. i hope you understand ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2026-03-29, version 2.5.0* Great app very helpful ### 5/5 — Sehr gut *2025-06-09* Das ist eine sehr gute App um sich in beiden Spielen zu orientieren dabababbduababu ### 5/5 — Complet *2025-02-05* L’appli est très complète, je recommande ! ### 5/5 — Ehre *2023-08-09* Danke bruder ich küss dein auge ### 5/5 — I finished the game in 6 days in game! *2023-04-08* The game may seem hard to new comes but the second you get this game it just becomes a walk in the park!I don’t know why I didn’t get this game earlier! 10/10 would recommend this game to anyone one that wants or as started! ### 5/5 — Caves In Sons Of the forest *2023-03-01* Add underground version for caves it will help a lot, thank you for this companion ### 5/5 — Crossbow *2023-02-25* The crossbow is in the wrong location ### 5/5 — Useful app *2023-02-18* All the items are easily findable it saves a lot of time ### 5/5 — Thank you *2023-02-01* This is an awesome help for me and my friend 👍 ### 5/5 — It’s good *2023-01-19* It’s good it helps you find caves and what you want so that’s pretty good --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
