### 3/5 — Fun, but buggy

*2022-10-17*

The app is a great idea, but it’s frustrating when you try to continue a line. I’ve tried using a finger and a stylus and it’s hit or miss.

### 1/5 — What waste

*2021-09-02*

Never has there been an app to assist travelers be more complicated and less user friendly than this thing!!!!

### 5/5 — Great apps

*2021-02-07*

I have used this app every week for my bicycle rides, for me is a important tool for my workouts.

### 3/5 — It crashes about 1 in 5 times when you save

*2020-05-28*

This is very convenient but also frustrating when it crashes!

**Developer response:** Should be fixed now. Enjoy.

### 1/5 — Not reliable

*2020-04-24, version 1.0.17*

Crashes every few seconds and loses all route so useless ☹️ absolute rubbish!!  Deleting!!

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2020-01-23*

Seems to be having some glitches. Getting kicked out and at times does not show total distance outcome

**Developer response:** Fixed now, sorry about that.

### 1/5 — Clunky and Crashes

*2020-01-01*

Surprised that Apple would approve such a clunky, crashing app. Deleting it now.

**Developer response:** Fixed!

### 3/5 — Was great, but now...

*2019-11-01*

This was a great app, but now it keeps crashing, or won’t tell you the distance after you’ve drawn it. Tried to go to app support, but there was just a page with a logo. I LOVED THIS APP!

**Developer response:** Sorry I am vacation but I am fixing the crashes.

Love me again!

### 2/5 — Clunky

*2019-09-24, version 1.0.12*

Saved routes don’t show the total mileage correctly. Since new iOS update app crashes regularly. Good interface and a useful idea

### 5/5 — Practical and easy to use

*2019-08-13*

This app does exactly what it says it does.  This is a handy feature to have and helps plan out your day trips through parks.  I wish Google maps had this feature for planning out my hiking trips through unmakes mountain trails. Thanks Small Fries!

**Developer response:** ♥ ♥ ♥
