### 3/5 — I love this app!

*2022-09-04*

My husband and I do a lot of road trips and this is the best app I’ve found that will not only document the trip but will let me share it easily with family and friends.  My favorite thing to do is to write a narrative at the end of each day.  So many positives with this app.  If there are questions or problems, the help has come quickly.

### 2/5 — How patient are you?

*2017-12-22*

This could be a great app but it is THE most poorly executed app I've ever tried to use. It is certainly not intuitive. Make a mistake in an entry and no matter what you do, you cannot correct it. You cannot alter the text, you cannot delete the destination and start again. You cannot copy and paste your text into the text box without the original 'mistake' being reinserted. The pictures are also too small. I've invested a lot of time with this app. I give up. I will use one written by professional programmers.

### 2/5 — Really annoying

*2017-09-13*

I've lost so many journal updates when flipping my iPad from landscape to portrait. So many thoughts and idea have just vanished into the ether. As for uploading photographs, it mystifies me that the app can chose to tell me that I'm not on WiFi, when I #€>#* know that I am.

I will persevere however as I've already started

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2017-07-22*

I have been looking for an app to replace travelpod. This could be handy if it did not crash every time I tried to upload photos. Has put me off it

**Developer response:** Sorry you are having problems. Please email help@jauntlet.com and we'll work to fix them.

### 3/5 — It has potential. It desperately needs an update!

*2017-05-10*

I wish they updated this app because the tools it has are pretty awesome. I love the maps and the pictures. I having seen close to this in other apps and some of them are new and stable I still prefer this one. Please update it!

**Developer response:** Thanks for using Jauntlet. It's updated several times year. If you have suggestions for new features, send them to help@jauntlet.com.

### 4/5 — Traveling in our RV

*2017-02-05*

I enjoy using jauntlet to keep track of our travels around the USA in our RV.  It's easy to write in the journal and to upload photos.  I do wish that when you choose a destination, that you could distinguish whether it is a "base camp" or a "day trip".  We travel to locations, park our RV for a couple of weeks, and take day trips to check out the sites, that I would love to capture.  When I do capture them, it looks like we are at that day trip location and not where we are at our base camp.  Just a suggestion!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your suggestion. Day trips are a good idea.

### 4/5 — Great improvements made, love this blog app!

*2016-04-07*

I have used this app every day for nearly 9 months as I travel the Panamerican Highway. It's awesome. You can plot your route, date everything, add a blog entry and either add photos through the app or even better, it syncs your photo to the correct location from photos added to Facebook. You can even export the blog to PDF. The app has seen big improvements over the last 9 months. 

To be able to give it five stars, I'd love to see a few things happen. It's great that you can export as a PDF but would be awesome if you could do so without photos. It would be good also if there was an 'add destination' button at the top of the page instead of having to scroll past all old destinations first. It would also be great to see all photos on one separate area, not divided up into locations. 

Overall though a great app and works well for my trip.

**Developer response:** Thanks for using Jauntlet. You can export PDFs without photos. On the web, there is an "add destination" button on the top of the page. On the app, it's at the top of the menu. It does group your photos by destination, but one big gallery is an interesting idea.

### 1/5 — Crash

*2015-09-09*

Crash. Crash. Crash.  Terrible app for photos.

**Developer response:** Sorry you had problems. If you contact help@jauntlet.com with the errors, we'll fix them.

### 1/5 — Always crashes

*2015-07-28*

Can't upload photos without it crashing. Would be great if it actually worked.

**Developer response:** Sorry you had problems. If you contact help@jauntlet.com with the errors, we'll fix them.

### 1/5 — Not quite there yet

*2015-03-03*

Just downloaded to try. After setting up the account, I found that the UI is a bit difficult to navigate. Only play with it for 5 mins trying to understand how to create blog and destinations, the app crashed!  Oh well...

**Developer response:** Sorry you had problems. You first need to create a blog, then you add destinations to it. For example the blog Euro Trip has destinations London, Paris, etc.
