Crashes & cannot edit a call list with basic

With Basic version, it crashes every time any feature is used. Cannot edit a saved call list. Itโ€™s pointless to purchase this level, so why sell it?

Landman

Really like this app. Easy to use and so convenient for doing title work in courthouse.

Great for checking legals

I'm a Prof. Land Surveyor and was looking for a way to quickly check legal descriptions for closure without needing my computer. This works great! Only thing I wish it did was export to a cad format like DXF.

Forester

Great app, PC version is great. I highly recommend this for anyone needing to create a property bounds map. I also often use it when checking boundaries in field. Only wish that app could enter data in 0-360 like PC version.
