Can’t view photos?
Interesting app. A bit quirky. But I am learning. However when I click the photos icon for a particular site - they never open so I just click the x on the upper right. Hmmm
Unusable on iphone
Can’t create an account even. Literally.

Requires location data
The app won’t work at all unless I allow it to access my location. This is intrusive and completely unnecessary. I use a number of map-based weather and outdoor apps, and all of them work fine without location access. The developer’s privacy policy claims they don’t collect any data, so why does it require location access?

This app doesn’t work
It only shows random individual hiking trails. It gives the wrong distances for everything. The well known Wonderland Trail which is around 99 miles is said to be 3.4 on this app. What the heck. I can’t use it for anything whatsoever.
Love this app
Great job!
Very helpful
I just went on a road trip to Colorado to do some dispersed camping on public land, and this app was a huge help with finding and identifying land boundaries and camp sites /areas. The map has lots of different settings and filters. It was very easy to see BLM and National Forest land boundaries and you can even use the map offline which is incredibly helpful.

Great App, would like one more feature
Love this app, but would like it more if the developers could simply make the coordinates able to be copied and pasted with other map apps. For example, I would love to copy the coordinates and paste in apple maps to route it quickly to the spot. Also, I would be nice to be able to take coordinates from Apple Maps and paste in Outly and have it locate the spot so I can pin it.
Without this, I am just leave to scroll around on the map until I can find the point, which isn’t too bad, but gets a little annoying since that seems like a small feature to integrate.

Amazing product
I love Outly for its many layers - land, water, wildlife and satellite imagery overlays. Very easy to use and it has replaced most of my Garmin GPS fieldwork.
Gets the job done!
Definitely small room for improvement, I would like if the dispersed camping was outlined verses just dots, and that the “developed” dispersed spots stayed as dots… I don’t know if that made ANY sense. That said!! I like the layout and the interactive features of the platform. It’s easy to use, shows more than I anticipated. The more users who share the more information will be available too. Which is exciting it’s like a club, for those who find their hearts beat for the great and beautiful outdoors.

Fantastically functional
i’ve used this app for a couple months now to both plan camping trips as well as navigate when off grid. Online and off-line functions work perfectly. The interface is easy to understand and use, and the data sets are extremely useful for camping and hiking to say the least. Thanks for creating this fantastic app!

Love this App
Not only does it give you the exact locations of trails, roadsways, waterways, and so much more, but it also gives you information about them.
Used the App for Years!!
I always download maps using this app before heading out to a new place. There are things that could be improved upon but it works and I depend on it.
Great app!
I love all of the features on the website map. The app has the key features to access maps and a couple of layers off-grid. Looking forward to more layers in the app!
Response from developer
Thanks for the feedback! Hunt Unit and Wildlife layers are coming to the app in the next version.
App does not function without location permission grant
Pretty shady to refuse to run the app without location grant. What are you trying to do?
I like the layers
It’s real not a bad platform especially for being free.
Not correct distance
This is a very nice app although when I am looking at hikes to go on I want to know the distance and outly doesn’t show the correct distance of a hike. For example when I click on the Wonderland Trail which is a known 99 mile hike, the app tells me it is all of 3.4 miles. If you could tell me if I’m doing something wrong that would be very helpful.

Great info!
So far I’m very happy to have downloaded this app. I haven’t needed to use it offline yet. It’s great to open the maps and see what lands I am on so I know what rules I need to follow. Great to date!
Best App Ever
There are app that will promise you the world but will fail to deliver. This app not only delivers but exceeds all my expectations. I recommend this app to every human being with a cell phone on this planet.
High quality app for free, what more do anyone one of us wants.
Thank you for creating such a fine jewel. It shines.

Needs more participation
Good app. I’ve swam and hiked some spots listed but there’s more out there.
Lies about data collection
The app page states that it does not collect any data. When you open the app, you are forced to make an account which features a lackluster privacy policy, data collection including location, and sharing with unnamed “business affiliates and partners”. HUGE RED FLAG!
