User reviews

Very disappointing app.

Very disappointing app.
There’s no preview of the maps, so I have no idea what I’m paying for. The app feels extremely poor — very limited map selection, almost nothing useful for metal detecting. Definitely not worth the money.

Total Joke

It started me out with one small map for a city that's 50 miles away from me... and I live in a MAJOR metropolitan area. So I figured, fine, I guess I need to BUY more map overlays in the app. I go to put in my state in the map search, and NOTHING. It has about 8 to 10 states available, and Maryland isn't one of them? One of the original 13 colonies, and they don't have access to historic maps? I go metal detecting, so I've used other apps that use maps from various sources, such as the USGS. I've seen the maps out there for my area... some that go back before the civil war. Save your time and effort, and don't download this app. You can get more historic overlays using Google Earth... heck, you can get more just doing google searches!
