Excellent used on North York Moors, full GPS data for all my photos.

Disfunctional

The opens, then stays stuck on “select project” Worst 5$ app ever purchased.

Response from developer

Hi. Sorry to hear that you have not had a good experience using the App. Obviously this is not how GPSnaps should perform and we are keen to get the app to work for you. If you want to go to the support pages and contact me directly I'm sure we can get it working. For a quick try at a fix you could, perhaps close the app by double clicking the home button then swipe the app up to dismiss it fully, then restart the app. Start a new project by typing a project name and then pressing the start button. record a single point and return back to the Projects page. The project you just created should be in the saved projects list. you can re-open this project by selecting it from the list and pressing the start button. Hopefully this solves any problems you have been having, I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks.

Failed export

Data is very well organised and easily exported to excel. If using IOS then make sure to turn off iCloud saving so that you can save images to phone memory.
