I use this app so many times a day to pinpoint a delivery address. It really, really helps with finding those hard to find customers. I cannot thank the maker of this app enough! It is brilliant and works so well! EXTREMELY PLEASED!! Thank you so much!!!! (Honestly, I would be willing to pay more for this app if it came to that. This app is well worth the money!) ### 5/5 — Amazing All In One *2025-10-05* Developer is super responsive to my emails and suggestions - the app is amazing all in one for oil field work - locator with built in camera app. The recent update is great as well with the album, bulk selection of pictures, bulk comment editor and so much more. Definitely worth the subscription. ### 1/5 — GOTTA PAY TO USE *2025-09-25* Imagine having to pay for this… well… YOU DO. TRASH ### 1/5 — What they don’t say *2022-12-18* Once again need to pay up front and they it does not want to work without going thru your phone. **Developer response:** Hello, first time users get 1 month free, unlimited use, no up front payment required. The app requires a device to work. If you need any assistance starting your free trial, please contact us at oiltrails@ashpoint.ca ### 5/5 — Use it lots *2022-06-18* Use the app quite a bit. Has lots of the lease roads in it, I use the satellite imagery when it doesn’t. Weather is useful. ### 5/5 — Oilfield Essential *2022-06-10* The offline lsds are cool. But the coolest thing is that if I enter a downhole lsd, it will tell me and ask if I would like to go to the surface location of a well. No more getting screwed over by dispatch, lol. ### 1/5 — Joke of a free app *2021-01-21* Literally can’t do anything in this app without subscribing. It’s fine if you want to charge for the app but let me try the darn thing before I have to start paying for it. **Developer response:** Sorry for any confusion but you can absolutely try the app for 30 days free. The app has a 1 month free trial that unlocks all features and does not charge you to begin the trial. You can cancel the subscription at any time. The only reason you would not be able to do the trial is if you were previously subscribed. ### 1/5 — Worthless *2020-04-23* Doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Sucks *2020-01-03* Not as good as Petro Ninja ### 4/5 — This app is helpful *2019-12-14* I’ve read some of the reviews and quite a few of them are negative but this app seems to get me to site just fine ## Frequently asked questions about OilTrails ### What does OilTrails do?
