## What is Geospike?

Record your travels, share with friends, and find your way back to places you've been—all while building a travel history.

With Geospike you can instantly record where you are, attaching photos and notes to your location, creating what we call a 'spike'. Geospike is a great way to capture and share moments on-the-go, from visiting landmarks to having coffee with your friends. There is no "checking-in" to predefined places and you can log a spike without an internet connection, making it especially great for places off the beaten path.

Start a trip, and and the places you log will be grouped together on a trip map. You can share individual spikes, or the whole trip (even while it's in progress) so friends and family can follow your journey as you go. Whether you're traveling around the world or exploring your own neighborhood, Geospike is the perfect app for capturing and sharing your travels.

### 4/5 — works fine

*2023-01-02, version 5.0*

trips function doesn’t work but the spikes work great

### 4/5 — Syndication is broken

*2018-06-07, version 4.0*

Works OK on iOS 11 and have been using for years but all the three syndication activations are broken. The twitter and Facebook items require iOS logins which were removed in iOS 11; and the tumblr item gives a 500 when trying to link.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2017-09-26, version 4.0*

Easy to use!

### 2/5 — Update- Urgent!

*2017-09-26, version 3.6.0*

Have friends O/S lost touch because app is not compatible with iOS11. Please up date ASAP!

### 5/5 — My faith has been restored

*2017-04-17, version 3.6.0*

I have loved this app for several years but with a new phone and iOS 10 it constantly crashes in the field. I purchased the pro version hoping it would fix the problem but nothing has changed. A very expensive app that crashes every time it is used when off line meaning I have to wait to get into wifi range to upload and can't write notes on the run- one of my fav features of the app. Please please update the app. I recently discovered GPS Log - a very similar app by the same team so contacted their support & received a response givingme the code to download a free copy of GPS Log.  I have now done so and have been trialing it around home and so far it loks every bit as good as Geospike once was and it works!

### 1/5 — Crashing?

*2017-01-03, version 3.6.0*

Have not been able to open app for months - crashes each time I try to launch it :(

### 1/5 — Won't work, now I've lost all my data!

*2016-08-28, version 3.6.0*

App worked OK to start with then glitched out. So updated phone software, no joy. Then I uninstalled and reinstalled app. Now the app won't recognise my log in detail. App support does work either.. Disappointing, poor app!

### 3/5 — Normally great but!

*2016-08-02, version 3.6.0*

I do love this app and have used and recommended it for years. Lately it has been crashing upon startup and the support page goes nowhere. When working is a 5 star.

### 1/5 — No longer works.

*2016-07-25, version 3.6.0*

Used this app for our trip around New England in 2014 and it worked excellently. Was planning to use it for this year's trip back to the USA but it crashes as soon as it opens.

### 4/5 — Can't enter past trips

*2016-03-01, version 3.6.0*

Seems to be good for tracking current trips but I was looking for an app that would allow me to enter past places. I want to track the states I have visited.
