It will not open for more than a couple seconds before crashing and updating my phone has not resolved the issue. I’m on iPhone 13 so it’s not my phone being out of date. It’s extremely helpful and if anyone support is left on the platform a fix would be greatly appreciated ### 4/5 — Website is much better *2026-04-07* Location names don’t appear as text but as pins you have to tap. Very cumbersome to use compared to the website. It is much easier to purchase the Pro upgrade through the App Store vs on the website. Until they fix the location appearing as pins, this app is not worth using after purchasing the upgrade. ### 4/5 — Not able to mark as found *2025-08-19* The app is amazing, much easier to read and understand then other tarkov maps out there. But the ability to mark locations as found is bugged out at the moment and makes the app cluttered and hard to use ### 3/5 — Better than nothing *2025-07-31, version 1.9.0* This is a good resource but could use some updates and fixes. Extract text is too large when zoomed out. Maybe adding just extracts as icons and if you hold or double tap the text could appear or something. ### 4/5 — Very helpful for learning the maps! *2025-07-31* This was the first Escape From Tarkov app I got shortly after starting the game, and it helped me to learn the maps with ease. The only negative thing I have to say about this app is that I wish the Scav and PMC extracts could be shown separately. I certainly wish this QoL change will come in the future. ### 4/5 — Very helpful *2025-07-25* I have been playing solo PvE Tarkov and this had helped me. Only negatives is if you zoom out on the map the markers for everything stay the same size. So you can’t see the map basically at all. Only other negative was I went to go to an extraction point and it had no indication it was a paid extraction (I was bringing money with me but of course I forgot that one time) . But it did help with having a sniper marked on the map. ### 3/5 — Out of date *2025-03-27, version 1.9.0* It’s a great multipurpose app but a lot of the map data is outdated. If the exfils especially were updated it would be a better app. ### 2/5 — Add. A. Goddamn. Compass. *2025-01-30* Most maps are whacked & don’t give you a clear idea where the hell you are as they’re rarely rotated the correct way. Maybe instead you could help players out by adding a COMPASS on the maps that illustrates where North is at the very bare minimum. Only used this cos it was on my phone, highly don’t recommend it just use Tarkov.Dev instead - Leagues above MapGenie ### 1/5 — Could be great but aint *2025-01-08, version 1.9.0* Every time resets what you want selecter. Maps are ooooooold ### 4/5 — Awesome app, a little slow with updates *2025-01-07* Amazing app to learn all maps, but a bit slow with updating new tasks and new map areas. Thank you. ### 3/5 — Its alright *2024-12-27* Why are all of the Maps upside down ### 4/5 — Amazing with a little flaw *2024-10-10* The app is really amazing and a blast to use. Thank you for providing this! The only problem is, that it resets the filters every time when I close the App. Also sometimes it resets everything and reverts to Factory when I have another App like Safari open for a short time and switch back to the Maps. If that is fixed, there will be 5 Stars for sure! Would be amazing! Please change this :) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — DON'T BUY PREMIUM *2026-08-09, version 1.9.0* APP NO LONGER OPENS AND DEVS ABANDONED THE APP, PLEASE DON'T GIVE THEM MONEY THEY WILL NO LONGER UPDATE THE APP AND IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL IT STOPS WORKING FOR YOU TOO ### 1/5 — TBW *2026-08-09* Die app hatte vor kurzen nich super funktioniert nur seit neuestem schließt die app sich immer nach dem starten deshalb nicht mehr zu gebrauchen ### 1/5 — Doesnt work! *2026-08-09, version 1.9.0* The app crashes ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2026-08-08, version 1.9.0* Great useful app but doesn’t work anymore.

Unparalleled for Escape From Tarkov. 5 stars all the way. But one thing. Recently the maps have a lot of blackout on them, like they’re not rendering properly. I couldn’t find a way to contact the devs directly apart from writing a review on here. I’m sure it’s a simple patch fix. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
