Needs an update

Can’t download geographical areas and therefore can’t see any mountains. Being a free app can’t really complain though

Doesn’t work

Doesn’t work. I’m in Alps and the closest peak is 2500km away..

Great app

Now I know what the peaks where I live are called after two years without answers.

Missing the big mountains

The app is really good for identifying the smaller peaks but from the middle of Puget Sound in Washington state, it does not identify Mount Baker or Mount Ranier, the two most prominent peaks. I suspect that they are too far away so the software ignores them. Would be better to have an algorithm that calculates the curvature of the earth and the height of the peaks to determine what is visible.
