Mejora

No logro utilizar el programa en mi iPhone 15 no graba líneas de kmz. Por favor actualizar

Needs an update - stopped working

The app crashes as soon as it is launched. Tried removing the app an downloading it again, but as soon as I added files it crashed again. Has been a great app until now, however for the amount of money it cost I expected better customer support. I’ll happily give a five star review if the app actually works.

Not working anymore waste of money want my money back

Had the GIS for a few years now not working anymore just comes up in America I'm in Australia doesn't even locate when I hit the button. Can't even contact the app people. Waste of money and I want my money back.

Hmm not impressed

Bugs bugs bugs. Won’t take photos, won’t show satellite maps, tracks super slow, won’t allow map to rotate to show direction. I’ve deleted and reinstalled but still same issues

No carga la cámara

En iOS 11, no carga la cámara para agregar una foto, este problema solo se manifiesta en el GIS KIT para iPad. Por favor solucionen el problema.

By far, the best mobile GIS!

I have been using this app since 2013. It was my first mobile GIS app. Over time, I venture onto the other side of fence with virtually every other available mobile GIS app. Here’s what’s unique about GIS Kit:
• Caches ortho-photo maps with a great number of choices
• Allows easy customization for a particular project
• You can have a number of projects, each remaining uniquely separate
• Very reasonable cost, nothing’s hidden; you get the base program with all the bells and whistles for under $100
• I have not found an app anywhere, but here, that EXPORTS Shape files! (Pro version) Well worth the extra $$ if you need that functionality.

Although there was a lag in updating this app and it tended to crash (frustrating), it was STILL worth the hassle! Not the team is back to raising the bar. They recently stabilized the crashing issue and are working on a major upgrade.
Hands down, this is the best mobile GIS app available.

Good app

It crashed a couple of times when adding layer data.
Found that if I switched off all but 1 layer I could keep adding new ones. Last project had 25 individual Track log layers on the same master project.
Added waypoints with photos and exported it all to Google Earth KMZ. Worked a treat.

Scam

This program is a scam, shuts down when u try and change back ground and no way to contact tech support for help or problem solving, stay away!

Constantly crashing

GIS Pro purchased with expectations that, even given cost, app would support iPad GIS needs for managing vectors and rasters. App looks promising BUT ........constantly crashes when importing rasters or just working with app. App appears to be a great tool but crashes will have me request refund unless developers can repair glitch and respond to requests for info

Could be Better

This App has its issues and could be much better. The best GIS App on the market is WolfGIS. Used it for 3 years with no issues.

My go-to GIS app for several years now. Switched from wolfgis and never looked back

Worth every penny. No subscription fees. Switched to this from wolfgis pro a long time ago and I'm never going back. I can't understand what everybody's problem is with this app. It's been my go to GIS app for over three years now and I haven't found anything comparable.

Lo mejor que hay

Una increíble herramienta para diseño en Permacultura y manejo hidrológico Keyline. La recomiendo ampliamente, con las restricciones que tiene el sistema del navegador GPS propio del iPad. No solo es la mejor herramienta de calidad disponible para hacer este tipo de diseños, es la única. Una buena compra.

Occasional issues

It is a super powerful app with tons of great features. Sadly it crashes from time to time. I find that if I close everything else it runs just fine 99.9% of the time. I do hope for further updates for the semi-pro GIS app. I use it regularly and would likely be lost without it.

Was my all time fav app

Hey this app was my all time favourite field data collection app but keeps crashing now. When are you guys going to fix the stability issue? It has been a problem for over a year. Bummer man! Where is the support? Don't let this great app digress into obscurity!

Fotos

Muy buena aplicación pero al insertar una foto se ve muy grande en Google Earth no pueden actualizar y hacer que se vean más chicas? Y no ocupen toda la pantalla?

I'm done with this app

I give up. It's been the better part of 2 years since GIS Kit worked. I told the company all the things that were wrong....they told me to contact Apple directly for a refund. Take our money and run, huh? I don't even think the company Garafa exists anymore to be honest. I have tried to look them up and call, number disconnected. Whatever, I use Collector now.

Good app, need to fix connection and crashing issues

Good app, but keeps crashing and maps won't load. Satellite imagery does not download either

Love iGIS. Don't love crashes.

Crashes, consistently in line features when using Record to GPS.

I have many small issues with this program but crashing and losing precious data on a day to day basis is costing my company money and my mapping technicians are losing faith in this program.

We upgraded to pro but I can't leave a comment there since it was an in app purchase, So I will leave this here.

We are consistently losing data and we need to redo line features often , which is quite difficult in some of the terrain I map in.

This is the most expensive app we use and it is the one with the least customer support.

There is no crash reporting , if there was I am sure this problem would be addressed.

Please fix.

A little help please

Do not buy this app!!!!
Used to be a good app but after the last update it doesn't work anymore. Support refuses to answer emails. No contact at all. Total waste of 100 bucks. I almost bought to pro version. Glad I didn't.
