After spending 20 minutes adding markers to the map, I find out only my last one was still saved. There doesn't seem to be a way to move a marker, or even delete a single marker...so one mistake and you can either clear the map or leave the mistake up. There's no search, so if you want a specific address you have to zoom in on the exact spot and hope you have it centered exactly perfectly on the screen. And finally, entering a name of a location isn't exactly easy: it utilizes spell checker, which means any non-standard location name will be replaced, and there's no auto-capitalization. I know the last sentence there would simply be nice-to-haves, but the basic lack of functionality makes it unusable for what it says it can do: make maps. ## Frequently asked questions about On The Map ### What is On The Map used for?
