### 1/5 — where are the developers?

*2025-03-05*

This app needs a massive upgrade. You can’t even see the map anymore. Is this just a dead app just sitting in the store?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-01-10*

Don’t have background map

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2024-12-29*

I had such hope for this app. Sadly, nothing I tried brought any of the background/landscape into view. It’s great to see all these points of interest on a map, but useless if you cannot see the terrain your are traversing. I feel the visited or Discovered concept would be helpful as well, considering the vastness of this environment, the abundance of points of interest, and the random discoveries one makes along their (open world) journey. Please fix this app. I would like to give it a full Five stars.

### 1/5 — Broken app

*2024-11-09*

This app was great and worked for a while, but now the map won’t load. It’s just a blank screen with the different pins on it.

### 1/5 — Maps wont load

### 2/5 — Bug

*2024-10-17*

Map wouldn’t show. Otherwise very useful.

### 1/5 — Fix the iOS app or remove from App Store

*2024-09-30*

The map doesn’t load. This app is broken and shouldn’t be on here. Fix it or remove it please. I will change my review to 5 stars if you fix it because this is a great map… When it works.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work.

*2024-09-29*

Nothing much to say. I open the app and nothing. I can see the icons but no map.

### 1/5 — Map doesn’t load

*2024-07-19*

Would be a great app if the map actually loaded

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-07-16, version 1.6.3*

Map is broken

### 1/5 — Not working

*2024-06-29*

The map is not showing on ios 16.

### 1/5 — Map Broken

*2024-06-25*

Downloaded the app so I could use the map while I’m playing on the go on my Switch. Sadly only a tiny section of the map background loads and no matter how long I left it waiting for the rest of the map background to load, it never did. Such a shame because the website works fantastically on PC and I was hoping for the same on the iOS app. Still sorta helpful if you know general placement of cities to see what’s nearby but pretty much unusable compared to desktop version.

### 1/5 — Would be great if it loaded

*2024-06-03*

Got the map hoping to find some extra loot in the game. The items and locations are awesome to see but you can’t tell where anything is because the background map will only partially load. You get 3 segments of map at a time and it’s never where you need it.

### 1/5 — Map doesn’t load

*2024-04-26*

Icons are there but map doesn’t load

### 1/5 — the map wont even show up anymore

*2024-04-24, version 1.6.3*

i think this app is broken and abandoned sadly

### 1/5 — map doesn’t even work

*2026-08-08*

I upgraded to map genie plus thinking I would use this like I did with the other maps, but the background doesn’t even show up with this app so what’s the point in using the map? I can’t see anything.

### 1/5 — Blank map

*2026-08-02*

The map is black on 2 different devices for me

### 1/5 — Blank

*2026-07-25*

Just full on blank kept on zooming in and out and just doesn’t seem to want to work gutted :/

### 1/5 — Missing map

*2026-07-14*

### 1/5 — Map Visuals are Broken

### 1/5 — Map is Broken

*2026-06-03, version 1.6.3*

No map image appears. Only waypoints.

### 1/5 — Background of the map is just white and only shows icons

*2026-05-25*

It’s ridiculous this app doesn’t work at all, it only shows you icons over a white blank background. No way to fix it as all methods don’t work. Just a waste of time. This app needs to be taken down if it doesn’t work anymore!

### 1/5 — Background

*2026-02-13*

I was hoping to use this to help me find things across the world. But the background won’t even load in no matter how many times I restart or redownload the app.

### 1/5 — Sem mapa

*2025-05-01*

Está com todos os pontos destacados, porém o mapa não aparece.

### 5/5 — Interactive Offline Map App

*2023-03-19*

An amazing map that is truly interactive. Game developers please take notice, that us gamers WANT to be able to use an in-game map as an interactive tool that has functions such as Search. Static maps are essentially useless, we require actual interactive maps like this offline map app, in-game. Kudos to the person that made this app, it is great.

### 5/5 — Helped so much!

*2023-03-10*

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing!

*2020-07-09*

I love this app because it saves me the time to track down word walls and collectibles. its also a great way to find new locations i’ve never seen before!

### 3/5 — Map problem

*2025-02-20*

Map isn’t showing

### 3/5 — Good, but…

*2023-07-03*

This is a good map that does a good job of helping you keep track of what you’ve found and haven’t found, but it does one thing that’s annoying, which is that - when you hit “Show All” and then search for something - it finds the thing you searched for, but then it’s no longer “Show(ing) All”.  The “Show All” goes away when you search for something.  That’s annoying.  Or, if you only want it to show certain things, and then you search for something, you have to hit “Show All” again, and go through the list and eliminate the stuff you do wanna see again.  The app just forgets what you do and don’t want to see way too often and you have to reset back to your preferences.

### 2/5 — Map not loading

*2025-05-17*

Unfortunately with iOS 16 the map doesn’t appear just the icons, making it virtually useless
