### 1/5 — App will not finish its download.

*2020-10-27*

Disappointing as the app will not finish its download. Frozen have tried several things will not complete

**Developer response:** Sorry for the disappointment and my slow response.  This seems to be caused when a file was corrupted in the download, we have added new code to deal with that better. If you clear the app cache (or delete the app and reinstall it) that first page should load in a few mins. Sorry, I know this would have been more helpful ages ago.

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2020-07-02*

App won’t initialise. Tried everything but it’s useless

**Developer response:** Sorry for the hassle and my very slow response. If you still want to try it again, you can clear the cache (or delete the app and install it again) and the download will start again. It should only take a few minutes. Sorry I did not see this when you had the issue.

### 1/5 — Won’t even load

*2026-02-04*

I can’t believe this still hasn’t been fixed. This app should’ve removed from the store. How do I get my money back?

### 1/5 — Fails from the start

*2026-02-02*

Can’t even open the app. Get to the additional download loading page and just consistently fails. Done multiple redownloads,  it is just plain broken.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2026-01-26*

What a shame the developer appears to have abandoned what was previously a great app. No way to communicate with the developer (just a link to a website with no contact details). Disappointing.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-01-16*

I should have read the reviews first. App doesn’t work. Once downloaded, an error message appears that I don’t have internet connection. Waste of money and disappointing

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2025-12-24*

Waste of money

### 1/5 — Won’t even load

*2025-10-20, version 1.1.0*

I can’t seem to download the app. It keeps telling me I’m not connected to the Internet when I am. After multiple attempts of deleting the app and re downloading it is now stuck on a single picture with a frozen download wheel. I’m disappointed.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work waste of money

*2025-10-09*

Downloaded app purchased in good faith but simply doesn’t work Waste of money do not get this app

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2023-02-17*

This app doesn’t work. When it tells you to start download it comes up with the words
 “initialisation failed” I’ve deleted the App several times and tried to download it again and again but it still doesn’t work. 
Very disappointed with it and such a waste of money. If I could give it zero stars I would.

### 1/5 — Very slow initial download

*2022-07-02*

I haven’t been able to use the app, as the initial large slow download has not completed

**Developer response:** Sorry for the issue.  We are working on a fix to reduce the amount that needs to be downloaded first go, but this data allows you to access lots of stuff offline.
So fix your app now, either clear the app cache, or delete the app and re-download it when you have a good internet connection. Once that initial download it done, it should be happy.

### 1/5 — App has been downloading offline docs for 4 hours

*2020-11-05*

This app doesn’t work unfortunately

**Developer response:** Hi Ruby, sorry for my late reply, only just saw this. If you clear the cache (or delete the app and download it again) it should be happy. With a reasonable internet connection this download should take about 1-2 mins.  So sorry it did not work for you.  Maybe try this new version.

### 5/5 — An Amazing Resource

*2022-06-30*

So much information. Great overview, preparation and planning help, track notes. Thanks for putting this together.

**Developer response:** Thanks -- glad you like the App, glad it helps :)

### 5/5 — Fantastic resource!

*2022-06-29*

This app is brilliant. A lot of time and effort put in to it to make it easy to use and informative. I love all the extra pieces of information around geology, wildlife and gear just to name a few. Very valuable resource to have when planning a trip

**Developer response:** Awesome, glad you like it and all the info. Hopefully it helps you enjoy the track that bit more, Happy walking :)

### 5/5 — Great help on track

*2021-01-05*

Really appreciated this. Downloaded all sections prior to departing and then was able to track exact location while walking. Nice and helpful.

**Developer response:** Great --glad it helped you stay on track. Nice to be able to just enjoy the amazing views and not worry about how far it is to the next campsite :)

### 4/5 — Good app with some unique information

*2020-09-13*

Works well, the track profiles alone make it worth the $.

Nice set of short notes and photos. 

The hazards section detailing open sections exposed to weather etc is not something I’ve seen else where.
