### 4/5 — Почему

*2024-07-17*

Не работает. Вводишь город, пишет северная часть тихого океанам

### 1/5 — Pengukuran jarak

*2024-03-30, version 1.1*

Titik pertama malah jadi titik tujuan.
Lebih baik titik pertama merupakan titik asal.
Rute yg dibuat juga otomatis dan diputar-putar lewat perkampungan bukan jalur utama.
Ga bisa dijadikan acuan pengukuran

*2022-07-19, version 1.1*

Mesafe ölçer uygulamalarında yürüyüş ile ölçüm yapmak çok iyi yalnız fiyat ülkemiz koşullarına göre biraz pahalı bedava ya da cüzzi bir miktar olsaydı tadından yenmezdi

### 5/5 — Kullanışlı ve eglenceşi
