### 1/5 — Literally only has two parks

*2023-07-23*

I love the idea of this app- if it was finished! 
It should either be added to, or more accurately described/advertised

### 1/5 — Missing 73 of 75 State Parks

*2023-06-26*

As of the date of this review, the app is missing about 97% of the state parks in MN and it’s been that way for many months based off other reviews. Embarrassing for those who authorized the releases of the app. Typical MN tax dollars going to waste. For as much as the state charges for state park day use fees, I’d expect a pretty robust app. I generally stay at state parks across the US when I’m unable to boondock in public lands and MN’s state park app is by far the worst I’ve downloaded (deleted immediately upon realizing how useless it is).

### 1/5 — Only 2 Parks on App

*2023-05-23*

Useless unless you’re going to Gooseberry or Bemidji.

### 1/5 — Not what it says it is

*2023-03-24*

The app description and what it does is completely different. It describes exploring all of the MN state parks yet it only has two. Worthless app

### 1/5 — Barely an App

*2023-01-25*

As usual, digital content put out by the State of MN is unfinished and decades behind in functionality and overall aesthetics.  Other examples include (DMV, Unemployment, Medicare).  Yes, our absurd taxes pay for this crap.

### 1/5 — Not ready yet

*2023-01-08*

Great in theory. 
1/8/2023 only has Gooseberry Falls and Bemidji as choices.

### 1/5 — Pointless App

*2022-11-24*

This app is not helpful in any way.  Glad my tax dollars went to pay for this garbage.

### 1/5 — Not a real app

*2022-07-17*

Completely useless unless you want to preview Goodeberry Falls or Lake Bemidji. I can’t believe this was released as an app. Would really like one that helped access the online reservation system and so on.

### 1/5 — Not ready for prime time

*2022-06-26*

App only has 2 parks

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Only 2 parks?

*2025-10-18*

There are only
2 parks in the app and it looks like, based on reviews, that it has been that way for a long time - deleting the app, it is not helpful.

### 1/5 — Truly worthless

*2025-08-11*

Can’t think of any other apps that offer so little.

### 1/5 — Just as useless as anything state government does.

*2025-08-01*

This app is just as useless as anything else our state government does. I bet we are paying a pretty penny to keep this app functional. It was just updated 2 months ago…. And the review on here from 2 years ago says it’s missing 98% of the state parks… there are only 2 state parks on this app.

### 1/5 — Hello?

*2025-06-29*

What happened with this clearly unfinished app? Did the funding get scrapped? Only two of 75 parks? And even those two do not have comprehensive information. Embarrassing.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-05-22*

Where are the parks?  Two parks.  App not ready for prime time.

### 1/5 — Only 2 parks

*2025-04-17*

Where are the State Parks? Only two show up. This app is useless to me.

### 1/5 — Don’t Waste Your Time

*2024-04-23*

Only two choices; Gooseberry Falls or Lake Bemidji. Not currently interested in either one. No option choose another.

### 1/5 — Incomplete

*2023-09-21*

Did the developers forget about this app?  There are 75 state parks yet only two are shown.  This app is pretty much worthless unless you only visit the two parks they created this app for.

### 1/5 — Three home links on the home “page”

*2023-08-16*

Really bad user interface. Not thought through to get you to a accomplish anything.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2023-08-16*

If there are 75 parks why are there only two available to look at on the app?

## Most praised reviews (1 highest-rated)

### 2/5 — Not good

*2023-05-16*

I used to be able to use the geopdf feature and now it’s way complicated and most time I can’t find the map I need. I say go back to the drawing board
