### 2/5 — Deleting Bookmarks

*2022-06-20, version 3.5.1*

App crashes when deleting pins.

### 4/5 — No more pin locations

*2022-02-27, version 3.5.1*

I no longer can view my pin locations looking at an area.  I have to now type in a desired location to find it now. Looks like the app has changed.  Being able to look at other dropped locations helps me navigate in my work. Not so much now with the changes made

### 2/5 — No Sync

*2021-10-07, version 3.5*

Lack of a sync is a huge downside.  i like this app quite a lot except for that, but that is causing me to look hard for alternatives.

### 4/5 — iOS 15

*2021-09-26, version 3.5*

I love this app and use it for many things but most importantly for work. Unfortunately it seems as though the upgrade to iOS 15 has created a bug in some of the purchased options such as choice of pin color. Hopefully the developer is aware of this issue and working on a solution.

### 1/5 — Problems

*2020-11-18, version 3.5*

After years of using this app, something has changed. I can no longer change the default name of pins. This is a huge problem. I tried to delete and reinstall the app, but now I cannot even unlock the advanced features I already paid for. 

There is no way that I can find to contact the developer except if they actually read reviews, so for now I will have to leave a poor review, which is unfortunate because this used to be a very useful app. Here’s hoping they can fix it.

### 3/5 — Please update the maps plus system to iOS 14

*2020-10-02, version 3.5*

App doesn’t work properly especially after update to iOS 14
The app needs to catch the update iOS 14 as it has gone nuts again like yrs ago some user has complained. I am not here to talk down about the app. I use it and relay on it a lot. But now it comes up very slowly, it freezes as soon as you click on the bookmark section, have tried deleting the app and reloaded multiple times still didn’t get far. Apple and app developer has tried their hard to make money but I have paid my good money to use the phone and this app that hasn’t failed.

### 1/5 — For an editing app, failing to open tracks is a fatal flaw

*2020-05-20, version 3.5*

Short and sad story:
Bought the app 1 minute after failing to see how to import a file on the demo version.
 After buying it, I used Files to “Copy to Maps+” the track I want to edit (created by a Garmin Foretrex). 
A Nike-like checkmark happily tells me I succeeded, but the track comes up EMPTY. And as we all know, it is hard to edit an EMPTY track. :(
Edited the track on the web to clean it up of extensions, using GPSVisualizer.com... Still nothing. Maps+ still imports an empty track ???
I am hoping I can get some help before I ask for my money back?  And no, I don’t use Twitter. And I will not use it just to get support on the app. Please help. I will update my vote if I can use it.

### 3/5 — Good, but lacking...

*2020-04-19, version 3.5*

I really like this app but the share does not work, as well as other features.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy, can’t import gpx files.

*2020-04-13, version 3.5*

Paid 7 bucks to be able to import gpx files but there is absolutely no option available even though they claim that’s one of the upgrades when purchasing. Trash app.

### 1/5 — Too dark

*2019-12-06, version 3.5*

Latest version is worthless.

### 1/5 — Don’t have track like before version

*2019-11-19, version 3.5*

Why not open tracking programs for all people using?

### 4/5 — Pretty good app 4.5 stars

*2019-11-08, version 3.5*

We tend to travel a lot and this map over the years has allowed me to navigate and also Pin tons of places we like and be able to find them again on a next visit. Having used this app for many years I have just noticed there is no iCloud back up support. I hate to admit this but I use 2 phones when I travel and I just noticed that in doing so I have pinned numerous things in the different phones that unfortunately are not on both. Any chance of a solution? Other than that a great app. Would be a 5 star app with some iCloud integration.

### 2/5 — Map lover

*2019-04-08, version 3.4*

The maps are good but I looked at Disneyland and the new Star Wars land ,it was an older version map.no 3D ,time this map got a better and newer interface picture

### 1/5 — No cloud saving/sync of bookmarks

*2019-03-05, version 3.4*

Can’t sync bookmarks between main phone and travel phone and can’t sync bookmarks between iPhone and iPad. This is a major fail.

### 1/5 — Crashing!!

*2025-10-07, version 3.5.1*

iPhone 15 pro- app keeps crashing!! Have to restart phone everytime to bring up pin drops! Freezes everytime I click on the app.

### 1/5 — Old maps

*2024-11-27, version 3.5.1*

I checked some places and this maps seems to be very old missing a lot of details and via satellite also old view…

### 1/5 — Support only thru X.

*2024-11-04, version 3.5.1*

Would give it 4+ stars with the exception of two things. Biggest is when you tap on app support it is only available through "X" and if you don't have a Twitter or X account you're not getting support. 
The other is I have Googled "Why do I keep getting The operation couldnt be completed. (EKErrorDomain error 29.) on Maps+"and there is nothing related to this. I like the functionality of this app however why in the world would you only allow Support through a platform that requires membership? I will not get an X or Twitter account just for support of this app. Hopefully developers read this and will respond.

### 1/5 — Abandoned

*2024-06-17, version 3.5.1*

No updates in 2 years.

### 1/5 — Worked excellent but now I can’t see my pins.

*2022-10-14, version 3.5.1*

I used this ap for work so I could see all my pinned locations in the areas I was traveling in and loved it.  Now the pins do not show on map.  That was the whole purpose of this ap
 for me.   What can I do so that I can see my pins as I travel and see my real time location?..

### 1/5 — No instructions for how to pin.  It allowed three pins only.

*2022-08-22, version 3.5.1*

Difficult to begin to use.  There are no instructions.  Held finger on place and the pin showed up for a particular address.  I was trying to pin The city.  I could see mo way to write a note.

Worse.  Only 3 pins allowed. Who’d want to get an app to pin their travels if they only had three places they visited?  Then i see that I  can have more if I pay $7. Unlimited then?  But to pay that much with all that doesn’t work?!  No way!   I guess I have to shop again!

### 1/5 — Used to be good

*2022-06-13, version 3.5.1*

Used to work great, you could see your location and any pins near you. Now, after an update, they only show in list form, which is way less helpful. Please go back to the way it was. Fix needed!

### 1/5 — App crashing when deleting bookmark

*2022-03-29, version 3.5.1*

Is this app being supported on IPad still? App is crashing when deleting bookmarks.

3/29/22 Update: App still crashing when deleting bookmarks.

### 1/5 — Latest Update 2/7/22

*2022-02-09, version 3.5.1*

Lost all my pin drops! After update opened app and lost all pin drops… still have labels. Fix please!!

### 1/5 — Horrible not worth any money

*2022-01-03, version 3.5*

Bought this app and it wont even change the colors of the pins. Garbage

### 5/5 — Maps

*2021-02-12, version 3.5*

Excellent

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2020-12-21, version 3.5*

Best location App hands down 👍👍👍

### 5/5 — Great app for a truck driver

*2020-09-22, version 3.5*

I stop at multiple locations for picking up and dropping off loads. The app makes it easy to mark and note the location to get an idea what that was like the last time i visited. Thank you!

### 5/5 — My favorite

*2019-12-19, version 3.5*

ReRevised still Dec 2019. After 3 days all of my old bookmarks reappeared. It was almost biblical. Where in cyberspace they went in those 3 days I don’t know. But we are back to five stars. I just wish the developer Would add a color wheel so there was more than just seven colors to pick from.

Revised December 2019 1 Star
- I loved this app. Used it for years. Noticed today there was an update so took advantage of it. Immediately all of my bookmarks / pins were erased. Over 600 lost. All the work that went into that. Whatever you do don’t update your application. Or better yet just don’t use it

Love the app for marking travel locations. Use a different color for every year. But we need more colors. 7 aren’t enough. I’m running one map on my iPad and an older one on my iPhone. Would be great if you’d install a color wheel so we could pick our own colors.

### 5/5 — Need more pin colors and/or icons

*2019-09-27, version 3.4*

I use this religiously to keep track of rest stops, Fuel stops, vendor locations, pet friendly stops, trip planning, restaurants I like, places I want to stop at next time I’m through, etc. love Maps+! But I’m growing too big for maps+ 😓 I need more colored pins or custom pin icons. Will additional pin colors and/or custom pin icons be included in any future update?

### 5/5 — Finally!

*2019-04-11, version 3.4*

Thank you for creating a functional gps with the tilt-pan combined with realistic satellite imagery that follows me while I’m in motion. So many other iOS map apps have utterly failed to convince me to keep their app on my phone because of the reasons that I’ve stated earlier. Keep developing it in this direction and you’ll keep my business for when you release paid product services in the future.
I’m most likely one of the few individuals that can bi-pass my oem navigation system to screen mirror my phone on my well hardware equipped oem Nav system via iphone6 - lightning to av over hdmi with my vehicles oem hdmi input port. These apps make the driving experience way more efficient and ironically, I spend less time messing with my phone because I can see a wider range of the map while in motion and can act quicker when making navigation decisions.

### 5/5 — Helpfulness

*2019-01-03, version 3.4*

Simply superb!    This app does everything you need when using it.  Superb

### 5/5 — Almost great

*2018-11-15, version 3.4*

I love the app, its simple to use,I do have an issue with the share option throw.I have a Apple model Mqdc2ll/A and on my version under the share option the print option doesn’t come up but on my old apple tablet it does, however the app is to new for it to work correctly on my old tablet. If that bug or issue was corrected it would be great👍.

### 5/5 — Travel planning

*2017-02-24, version 3.1*

I also think this latest version with clumping pins together is useless. It used to be so easy when I was traveling to see all my colored pins (purple/restaurants, brown/hotels, etc.)

Thank you thank you thank you! You got rid of all those silly numbers.  I opened it up today and was so happy

### 5/5 — Best app if you need multiple pins

*2016-12-06, version 3.0.2*

If you need multiple pins on a map, this is the app!!!

I used to have a laptop mounted in the vehicle with Delorme Maps until this app came out a few years ago.  Then I switched to an ipad mounted in the vehicle.  Much better on space and usability.  I typically have 15 to 40 addresses to go to each day.   The ability to place pins on a map and have a graphical interface to look at when planning my route saves me a lot of time.  I have never used route planning on any of the map software I have used as I know my territory very well and can do better with my local knowledge of where traffic bottlenecks are at different times of the day, construction, which shortcuts are good, etc.  Sometimes due to interuptions, or rushes, I have to adjust my route.  Very easy for me to do without having to change the route on the software.   The big deal to me and my fellow co-workers who use the program is being able to easily add and delete pins to the map based on our workload.

I actually liked the old version 1.3.6 only because of the graphical interface.  It had a grayish background and the roads were easier with the contrast.  The newer version has a better interface.  Easier and a bit more intuitive to use.  It appears they dropped the routing feature which I don't use anyway.  Since the IOS 10 update, I have lost seeing the buildings in the Standard view in all versions of the app.  Obviously you can see it in Satellite view but I prefer the less cluttered look of the Standard view which is also easier to read the street names. 

For my purposes, the only thing missing from the app is the following:
Buildings missing from the Standard View since ios 10 update &
Ability to sync maps between iphone and ipad

Overall, I love the program and won't do without it.
