User reviews

Amazing app

I always enjoyed the web version and now they have an app!!! Amazing, yes the adds are a lil annoying but if you are seriously spending time looking at old photos you can spare a little more watching one ad. Amazing app and I love it

Great way to see history

I love being able to how things looked ‘back in the day’

Buggy ads, pop up ads, garbage app /edit it’s better

App is genuinely unusable in its current state, I’ve updated to the latest version and l just keep running into more issues, it’s so frustrating / edit 1 stars to 4 stars developer addressed issues

Response from developer

Sorry for the frustration. That’s not the experience we want anyone to have. We’ve since released a major update with a full rebuild, faster performance, and a long list of bug fixes, so it’s worth another try. If you’re still running into problems, email us at support@netronline.com with what’s happening, and we’ll work through it with you.

Great app

I love using this app it lets you go farther back than google earth. And I don’t mind an having a few ads being that it’s completely free to use the maps

A great insight

A great insight into seeing your area over time and seeing how this forest was never always there and was actually man made 50 years ago, so trippy
