Great app, I have been using it for years but the photo feature no longer works properly with the newly updated iPhone which really reduces the functionality of that app.

### 4/5 — Actualización IOS 26

La app es práctica y fácil de utilizar, pero cada que existe una actualización en iOS la app deja de ser funcional… ATENCIÓN A ESO

### 1/5 — Yet another abandoned App

*2026-06-11, version 8.0.4*

Yet another loser developer who has abandoned the app and his customers!

### 1/5 — Actualizar

*2026-02-01, version 8.0.4*

Se necesita actualización, se activa la cámara GPS y se cierra el aplicativo.

### 1/5 — Very disappointing

*2025-09-03, version 8.0.4*

Paid $15 for an app I can’t get to work. When to the “user guide”where it keeps dropping out.

### 1/5 — Please update

*2025-02-23, version 8.0.4*

Subject: Issue with Location and Route Sharing Feature, primarily for adventurous mountain trips where accurate GPS tracking is essential. Recently, I have encountered an issue with the location and route sharing feature. Every time I attempt to share my location or route, the app crashes and closes unexpectedly.

### 1/5 — Abandoned for some reason

*2025-02-03, version 8.0.4*

Maybe short attention span? App still works, but definitely not worth paying for…

### 1/5 — Awaiting updates?

*2025-02-02, version 8.0.4*

Wish I had never paid money for this! Lifetime? This is why I will never EVER! Buy anything that claims it’s a lifetime subscription! I am alive, but this fcuking app isn’t!  Wish I could give it a 0 and I am extremely glad I didn’t pay £299 for the GIS Pro or £99 for GIS Kit!

### 1/5 — No Longer Works

*2024-06-06, version 8.0.4*

Do not buy! This was a great GPS app but has not been updated. I can no longer download my data. The app crashes as soon as you try uploading or downloading data, making it useless.

### 1/5 — crashed

*2024-04-15, version 8.0.4*

### 1/5 — Abandoned

### 5/5 — Great app.

*2026-07-28, version 8.0.4*

I’ve been using this app for 12 years because it has been accurate and I can open the file that is produced in Google Earth.

### 5/5 — Review from snowmobiling

*2026-01-25, version 8.0.4*

App is awesome I have used it for years.  Simple to use works off line amazing bang for your buck.  However for some reason I cannot add a picture to location any longer since I updated my phone.  It worked flawless with my iPhone 12 but not my new 16.  If anyone knows how to fix that this is my only gripe.

### 5/5 — Whoever Wrote this App is a Coding Genius

*2025-09-21, version 8.0.4*

I’ve been using this app since 2011 back when I was in high school. Even though I’ve switched to a combination of WorkOutDoors and Gaia GPS, this app still has a lot of my old trails saved. Every year, I expect it to stop working, but amazingly it still works just as well as in 2011. This is despite not having been updated in 8 years and still using an iOS 6 era interface. I don’t know how the developer wrote such a stable app, but this is clearly the work of a genius.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2025-08-09, version 8.0.4*

Nice entry level GPS mapping it was the first for me to use and I have recommended to many shooters

### 5/5 — App crashing

*2024-11-08, version 8.0.4*

I have using GPS Kit for the last 3 years and it was working fine. Now, when I am trying to export saved data, it’s crashing. Anyone with the same issue or has found any solution?

### 5/5 — ใช้ในการเดินป่าดี ความคลาดเคลื่อนสูง และน่าจะใส่รูปภาพในหมุดที่ปักได้หลายๆ

*2024-02-23, version 8.0.4*

ดี แต่น่าปรับปรุงความเที่ยงตรง ใช้บน iPhone 8 และ iPhone 13 ในพื้นที่กึ่งป่า มีสัญญานมือถือ 3G เป็นบางครั้ง

### 5/5 — Ios 17 is not working properly

*2023-10-03, version 8.0.4*

Im using this app for many years , everything is perfect , the only thing now is the bug in ios 17 which is cant share the tracks , when you push the share bottom in top right corner app is crashing and its big deal for many our friends who using this app cause we always sharing tracks between us
