Needs faster response

Using trial period in Whitefish MT. Agree with an earlier reply that response time/ GPS fix is slow indoors, a bit better outside. Not knowing the “mechanics” unsure if GPS fix is the issue but apple maps has been fast until cell signal goes to satellite.
From my earlier read seems you are working on improved sensitivity and accuracy/response time which if optimized will make for a valuable app. I plan to drop after trial period and check back in a few months. Cheers.

Not there yet

I’m leaning towards 3 stars but will settle for 2 for now. It’s not terrible but needs improvement. In a job where seconds matter, it needs to be accurate. Takes about 5-10 seconds to locate from a wake position. And updates another 5 -10 Seconds when on a new road. Sometimes it takes 45 sec to update or not the correct road. I really hope this can be improved. It can be a great tool for an Apple Watch

Amazing

I would give it a 4/5 but the interface and accuracy is what makes it a 5/5. Just wondering if this only stays as a watch face while I keep it open on my watch, or if there’s a way to add LOC8 as a ‘complication/add on’ to my Apple Watch faces.

Could be improved

In the app and on the App Store it says location data is not sent off device, but it is sent off device.

App itself works “ok”. From cold start it takes about 7 seconds to give me an address which feels like forever depending on the situation.

Keep it up!

Love what you’re doing. Would love to see watch complications soon.
