### 5/5 — Now usable without an account

*2026-03-02, version 5.11.0*

Great to explore the mountains

### 5/5 — Best thing happened after fatmap

*2026-02-28, version 5.11.0*

Best fatmap competitor, period. I wasted my money with whympr premium, Iphigénie, relief, but nothing compares to Outmap UI. Visibility is perfect, tracing ski touring routes is as easy as swisstopo. The ONLY thing missing is the accurate winter satellite layout. We miss that so much, but except that, my mountain adventures are great again. Please keep your economic model so you don’t end like Fatmap. Totally worth the subscription imo.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-02-03, version 5.8.4*

Great startup app but still missing some features you can find on other bigger name apps.

### 5/5 — Best

*2026-01-08, version 5.8.4*

Savior! Great app, just in time to rescue us from Strava’s bombhole. Can’t recommend enough.

### 5/5 — Best App for Backcountry

*2025-12-04, version 5.4.0*

Simply the best app to navigate backcountry and plan itinary out in the wild

### 5/5 — The best of the best

*2025-11-25, version 5.3.0*

This app is the best one I ever seen! 

It integrate all your needs for your backcountry skiing or snowboarding. 

Super easy to use. 

Wit this app, you don’t need the other one.

### 4/5 — Good app, still some bugs

*2025-10-21, version 5.1.5*

Regularly using it as replacement of fatmaps. I like the satellite image quality and the rendering of layers while zooming. What i do not like is that many paths are not shown or not visible unless you zoom in very deep.

### 5/5 — Best outdoor map for skiing and hiking

*2025-08-21, version 5.0.0*

Love this map. Simple to use, great visuals, can see all the details. Super useful winter layer!

P.S. I’m also using this for biking and it’s way more informative than Trailforks, nice perk 😄

Thank you!

### 5/5 — Great tools

*2025-08-19, version 5.0.0*

The app to have for any outdoors activity. Easy to use and very sharp map. Powerfull tool

### 5/5 — Better than Fatmaps

*2025-08-05, version 4.62.0*

Fatmaps had become essential for my backcountry travel and I’m so happy I found Outmap as a replacement. Better features and offline maps take up way less storage. Only negative is image resolution could be a bit better.

### 4/5 — Fatmap Ersatz

*2025-06-02, version 4.62.0*

Lang nach einer App gesucht die (leider deaktiviert) Fatmap ersetzt. Denke das habe ich hier gefunden. Würde mich über noch hochauflösendere Satelliten Aufnahmen freuen!

### 5/5 — Alternativa muy buena!

*2025-04-16, version 4.62.0*

Por fin alguien que tiene una buena alternativa a fatmap sin pagar i de calidad! Keep it up!!!

### 5/5 — Fire

*2025-04-12, version 4.62.0*

This app is fire. The perfect ski touring app

no i'm serious it's genuinely the best visualization app around, drop gaia and OnX

### 5/5 — Nice alternative to FatMap!

*2025-03-17, version 4.58.2*

For nows is the best alternative to Fatmap! Still needs lots of work to do to improve it, but for the beginning, great job! Well done! Thx! Keep improving it guys! Thx! 👏

### 1/5 — Clicked on a ski resort and it reset my selection

*2026-01-27, version 5.8.4*

Cannot use the app to select and explore slopes, as i click on a slope and it deselects the current ski resort

### 1/5 — Now unusable without an account

*2025-11-23, version 5.3.0*

You don’t need my details

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-06-22, version 4.62.0*

after downloading several maps and saving three recorded tracks, OUTMAP does not save anything anymore. Some documentation or, FAQs, or troubleshooting instructions might be helpful. As it stands it does not do anything it purports to do.

### 1/5 — Not at all like FATMAP.

*2025-05-10, version 4.62.0*

This was advertised as “best replacement for FATMAP.” How can you say that when there’s no backcountry routes or data in here? That was the entire point of FATMAP. If it had been advertised differently without that utterly preposterous claim, I’d give a higher rating, but it wasn’t, so I didn’t.

### 1/5 — Bugged

*2024-01-02, version 4.2.4*

Adding waypoint crashes the app.

### 2/5 — Misleading claims

*2026-07-03, version 5.14.0*

Pro perks claim High resolution satellite imagery. However what you see with free subscription is what you get with premium, only difference is you can download. And it’s definitely not high resolution. And very steep subscription pricing only for downloading maps. Not with it IMO

### 2/5 — Yet another overpriced subscription

*2026-01-09, version 5.8.4*

Had potential in replacing Fatmap after the Strava purchase destroyed that. Sad to see this becoming another overpiced subscription.

### 2/5 — Not even close to Fatmaps

*2025-01-26*

-Satellite imagery quality is well below that of Fatmap or Google Earth. 
-Activities traced on the map can’t be removed unless the entire activity is erased from the library. eg.If you do multiple activities in the same area, red lines will be all over your map, often overlapping each other.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. The satellite quality has improved a lot since this review, and activity trace visibility is something we've been working on too. You can now toggle off your library activities so that they don't show on the map. We'd love for you to give it another try! Feel free to reach out at support@outmap.pro if you run into anything. 🙏

### 2/5 — Offline maps doesn’t work

*2025-01-20, version 4.49.5*

Seems like a great app, and it would be, but it says that pro subscription is not yet available and you can’t download maps for offline without pro… so no offline-ready maps available

### 2/5 — Worked once

*2022-10-27, version 2.4.3*

I used this once for a trail (Lake Constance in Washington) and it worked great. I’m trying to save a trail that the app recognizes but it will not work anymore. I cannot save the trail, open the trail, or save a plotted course of the trail that I created. When it worked, it was great. I feel like there are some glitches that need to be worked out.

### 5/5 — This is the best mountain adventure app you will find

*2026-08-08, version 5.15.1*

Has everything I need for winter and summer mountain sports in Europe! Interface works great. If you want a fatmap replacement - this is it (and more!) - I’ve been a very happy subscriber for the last year!

### 5/5 — The ultimate tool

*2026-07-25, version 5.14.0*

I’ve been using the pro version for about 2 years, that’s probably one of the app I use the most. Perfect for ski touring and hiking. Also, good job for integrating the climbing cliffs on the map, I don’t know which layer you used but it’s super accurate. And super idea to have added the status of the BC FSR, spotwx forecast and the ski heat maps. Thanks for your amazing app

### 5/5 — No longer as lost

*2026-06-21, version 5.14.0*

🗺️

### 5/5 — Great app for unforgettable ski trips

*2026-05-11, version 5.12.8*

Amazing app! We used Outmap during our snowboarding trip in Japan, and it was genuinely helpful. The heatmaps were especially useful when visibility was almost zero at the top of the mountain and we needed to quickly understand which direction to go.

The 3D maps are also excellent — the terrain detail and overall map quality are really impressive.

I also really liked the ability to save maps in advance. It was super convenient: I could review the resort map on the plane, quickly refresh my memory on the lift, and when we were in areas with no signal, the offline map helped us get oriented faster and find our way back to the runs.

It’s almost a shame that I don’t go snowboarding more often, because the app is genuinely interesting and makes me want to use it more and more.

Big thanks to the team!

### 5/5 — Exceptional mapping tool

*2026-05-08, version 5.12.8*

I work as a IFMGA mountain guide throughout the globe and have found the mapping and intuitiveness to be remarkable. This has been my favorite mapping tool in quite some time.

### 5/5 — Way better

*2026-04-24, version 5.12.8*

I tried it when FATMAP was killed, and it was nowhere near as good as it is now.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2026-04-16, version 5.12.8*

I’ve used Gaia and others - nothing beats OUTMAP for 3D rendering on a phone with the overlays you need for ski touring and backcountry adventures - super easy to plot routes.

### 5/5 — Best map app ever

*2026-04-06, version 5.11.0*

Very flowy and easy to understand, uploads quality maps fast with clean details, intuitive to the handle. 
state of the art layer shading.

### 5/5 — Surpassing Fatmap by a mile

*2026-04-01, version 5.11.0*

Initially brought as a FatMap alternative; it now surpasses it by a mile. These guys develop incredible tool for trip planning, orientation and terrain evaluation. They integrated detailed weather forcasting, avanlanche conditions, sun/shade exposure… UX is great.

The web app is also incredibly well integrated.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-03-06, version 5.11.0*

The perfect tool for backcountry skiing and it gets better every day.  Thanks for making this Felix!
