works fine

trips function doesn’t work but the spikes work great

Syndication is broken

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.

Awesome App

Easy to use!

Update- Urgent!

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

My faith has been restored

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!

Crashing?

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

Won't work, now I've lost all my data!

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!

Normally great but!

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.

No longer works.

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.

Can't enter past trips

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.

Good functionality but not quite there

I really like the list view of "your spikes", lots of info on one screen.

When starting recording a journey, however, it appears to hang and say "internet connection not available". I'm testing at home on my wifi! Also, most journeys you can assume I won't have Internet, so this won't do for me at all.

I'm concerned by default behaviour of sharing my locations and journeys with the public unless you pay money for the app. Privacy issue for me.

I haven't taken the plunge and purchased full app for Β£4.49 because of the app's inability to let me do things offline.

As to the other reviewer in October 2015 who talks about the app using current location for previous photos, this is not the case for me. I can successfully add a previous photo from a few days ago and it will pick up its location okay.

Perhaps in testing this user first added a photo from the current location, the tried to add another pic from previous location? The entry seems to only use location from the first photo you add.

Has an Issue!

Though the interface is quite pleasing and principally a good idea, it's severely let down as one cannot put in photos from albums or camera roll without GeoSpike first stripping it's GeoData!!! Therefore any previous photo you may have taken GeoSpike will assume it was taken at your current location!!!! What is the point in that?!! Also STILL NOT iP6 Plus resolution compatible!! Geeeeezzz, how long has the iP6 been out?!! Deleted!

Doesn't format well with

This app doesn't format well with iPads, trying to sign up but the application is outside the view and doesn't respond to change text in some areas. Needs improvements!

Crapware

Bought the paid version, does not load on iOS 8.4.

Do not buy.

Don't bother to waste time, energy or money on this

My daughter and three members of the family bought the pro version of this App to follow her travels around South America. None of us could receive her photographs or details of her spikes despite her sending us a screenshot of her phone showing what appears to be successful photos posted on her App. I also uploaded some to my phone to see if they could be seen by her and other friends but apparently not. A real disappointment.

Brilliant!

Clever app, does what it says on the tin. Had a problem but the support (Will) helped me sort it very quickly and efficiently.

Not useful

Website is useless as well. Cannot log past travels easily. Deleting it after tried for 2 days. What's up with all the good reviews!?!?!?

Very good !!!

All good here try it out :-)

Great tracker app

I love it for this extended journey I'm on as it tracks my whole journey on a map. Great app.

Very good

Have had fun keeping in touch with relatives. Also enjoyed looking at other people's amazing photos.
