### 2/5 — Used to work great!

*2023-08-04, version 2.5.1*

Used to work great now the panning and zoom bounce back as soon as you move map, pretty much useless as a tool to find marked locations now. I have reached out to developers twice and have received no response. It was so good before I would have easily paid for it, now all of my saved locations are mostly useless. I’m sad

### 3/5 — GPS Tour

*2023-02-10, version 2.5.1*

I purchased this item & it took it back and will not let me restore my purchase.8

### 4/5 — Great GPS that can be More

*2017-08-27, version 2.2.2*

I use this app to track all my finds while Metal Detecting.
Here are the improvements needed....
When you zoom in or out the zoom should stay and not revert back.

Track your route while walking.
An arrow telling you which way to go while walking---
Example: I mark where i park my car and it has an ID tag number 50.
Later i should be able to touch that ID tag and the app tells me which way to walk.

ID tags should be replaceable with names.

Like i said a great GPS App that has so much more potential.

### 4/5 — Great

*2017-05-01, version 2.0.1*

I like this a lot!

### 2/5 — Navigation arrow not working

*2017-04-27, version 2.0.1*

I downloaded this app to save locations. But the navigation arrow doesn't seem to point the right direction.

### 4/5 — So far so good

*2017-03-17, version 1.2*

I have to say I'm impressed with this app so far. I'm using it on a construction site to map out water services and it seems accurate and very useful. I plan to write another review soon after I've put the app to further testing.

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2017-03-04, version 1.2*

Great app easy to use

### 4/5 — Handy

*2017-02-19, version 1.2*

Still new to it but it seems to be exactly what I was looking for.

### 5/5 — Useful for field inspections

*2017-02-17, version 1.2*

Great app. I use it for inspections. I love the locations page because it keeps all the coordinates handy and I don't have to write them down. Add in the map view and it's a winner. KISS. Just the right degree of detail. I'd appreciate storing the +- accuracy and adding UTMs if possible!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2017-02-05, version 1.2*

Easy to use

### 4/5 — Problem editing location

*2017-01-27, version 1.2*

If you try to edit a location using degrees and minutes then try to save it, it does not save the changed coordinates. I delete the location then reenter it under a different name to make the change.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2017-01-12, version 1.2*

Better than some pay gps apps that I have for certain purposes.

### 4/5 — Just what I needed

*2017-01-06, version 1.2*

Position, altitude, can't go wrong.

### 5/5 — Gps

*2017-01-03, version 1.2*

Easy to use and fast best pictures I've seen.

### 5/5 — Very Useful

*2017-01-01, version 1.2*

I use this app to make hunting locations, and it works great.

### 4/5 — Rock solid

*2016-12-26, version 1.2*

Very decent app

### 4/5 — Field Flunkie

*2016-12-08, version 1.2*

Great app. I only wish you could mark locations on the map instead of current position.

### 1/5 — Was great....

*2017-07-03, version 2.2*

Until the recent update this app was awesome, I could map a variety of things and easily save and export them! But then they decided to update it, and now it wont even open. Hopefully that gets fixed soon so I can go back to using it.

Update (7/3/17). 
The app got fixed, worked then went back to crashing constantly, making it unusable, and that was all after I paid for the full version! Such nonsense, just fix it and make it work!!!

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2017-03-12, version 1.2*

Right when I opened the app for the first time a prompt popped up that said "This app may slow down your iPhone. The developer needs to upstage their compatibility." Lol if the developers don't care, neither do I. There are plenty more of these out there. Deleting.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2017-01-23, version 1.2*

This app is useless

### 1/5 — Impossible to enter GPS coordinates

*2016-09-05, version 1.2*

I just downloaded this app and tried to type in the GPS coordinates of the location I'm looking for.   I need to type in north and west.   The app is set for north and east and will not let you enter west.   Am now uninstalling the app

### 1/5 — Terrible.

*2016-07-30, version 1.2*

Literally nothing works in this app.

### 1/5 — Privacy issues

*2016-07-24, version 1.2*

Doesn't have an option to allow GPS only when using the app

### 1/5 — Very inaccurate

*2016-05-17, version 1.2*

Literally off by 50 feet from my actual location. Useless for any real coordinate information

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2016-03-27, version 1.2*

Tried to use it for geocaching. It wouldn't let me enter the coordinates on the cache website and only allows N and E coordinates, so not trustworthy or reliable.

### 1/5 — Location tracking: Always ON

*2016-02-14, version 1.2*

Another app which is too nosy for it's own good. Having in any app track us even when we aren't using it is UNacceptable.
Delete!

### 1/5 — Lose map when out of cellular network.

*2015-02-07, version 1.2*

I don't understand why, but i wanna use this app when i am out in the desert and out of cellular signal. 
I tried twice. Once in the san bernardino mountains (california) and it worked. It was very useful. 
The other time in Jawbone (Mojave Desert, California) and it kept on losing my position and the map. So pretty scary as i ended all by myself and lost as i was relying on it to get back to camp. 
Very unreliable. I will give it another try...

### 5/5 — GPS

This app works perfect! I use it for marking stones in the fields when I am seeding or spraying and then go back and pick them !!!

### 5/5 — Looks like the perfect app

*2017-03-21, version 1.2*

I have been trying to find a GPS app to store multiple locations on a map with the ability to track my position as I move around towards them. I believe I have found the app. Great job creating this.
