A great app, if it worked.
Got this out to keep track of my hikes. Look like it would be exactly what I wanted, but it turns out that it doesn’t work at all
On my first hike, the map was riddled with a series of lightning bolt figures hardly resembling the path I took to the woods at all.
On my second hike with it, it accurately mapped about 50% of the hike while the other half resembled a series of crisscrossing straight lines that look like a “connect the dots“ figure.
On the third try I was nervous that it was working, so I kept pulling my phone out of my jacket pocket to check on my progress and sure enough, it look like it was accurately mapping my path around the lake. Then all of a sudden, the entire track disappeared
Leaving just a blank screen, as though nothing had ever been tracked at all.
I hoped that perhaps the app would’ve saved at least the part of the hike that it did track just so I could see how far I had been around certain part of the hike, enabling me to estimate the rest of the hike from the length of that track, but no such luck. There was absolutely no record anywhere in the app that anything had ever been tracked or recorded.
I will not make the mistake of attempting the fourth hike with us. I will be getting some other app that actually works.
