### 5/5 — Highly recommend

*2023-05-02*

Accurate facts and locations. 
I love to read about killers, trying to understand their psychology, it’s fascinating and scary at the same time…
This app made me learn about a lot of cases I didn’t know of. 
It actually gives you link to learn more about the cases. : Articles, YouTube videos, podcasts, books, and finally the exact position on Google street view. 
There’s a lot of work put in that free app and it’s great work. 
Thank you to the developer(s)

### 1/5 — Not working anymore

*2023-01-08, version 1.0.2*

Used to love this app used it too gather data for my podcast but now it crashes everytime i try to click on a pin and open up one of the bookmarks👎

### 5/5 — Pretty good app

*2021-09-14*

I always like to look at this app it gives pretty good information like about ted bundy, Richard Ramirez, Ed gein, etc I recommend getting it if you want to learn more about all these killers

### 3/5 — Neat but...

*2021-04-23*

So it seems neat but I really would like to know what the different colors mean. And also why one pin is blinking.. There's no way to contact the developer. If you click on "app support" it takes you to the privacy policy, and at the bottom they encourage you to contact them but there's no way to do so. 🤨

### 5/5 — Thank You

*2021-02-18*

I’ve been wanting an app like this for ages because I love reading about true crimes. It’s also user-friendly. It was recommended to me through someone on Reddit.

### 4/5 — So interesting!

*2021-01-23, version 1.0.2*

This is such a fascinating idea for an app, and I would go into further detail on how informative and accurate it is, however when I use the map and click on a particular case, the app crashes :( I gave 4⭐️ for now as I think this app has amazing potential, once the bugs are fixed and if they’re able to expand their area even; a worldwide one would be fantastic but would obviously require a lot of work! But whatever the developers have in mind, I am willing to support and will amend my review once bugs are fixed :) either way, I still recommend!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work, Crashes

*2020-07-06*

This app crashes when manually searching for an address or town. Using on iPhone 11, with current software revision.

### 4/5 — Happy face killer???

*2020-05-06*

There is no information about Keith Hunter Jesperson who was the happy face killer.

### 3/5 — Hey Fotofico, I can answer your question.

*2020-04-23*

I literally just discovered this app so I have no affiliation with the developer in any way. But I do know that the most likely reason there are locations missing is because they might be on private property.

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2020-01-15*

Fantastic! Love the clean UI. Super easy to use and very informative.
