Disappointed
This works well for simple horizontal shots, but is much less impressive whilst amongst the fells / mountains. The outline is often above the actual view point and it fails to give proper perspective, meaning you will not be able to distinguish peak tops easily and often - with similar looking peaks - you’ll need a map anyway, which defeats the convenience. I ended up just reverting to my map and ignoring the app. The OS app (before they removed this functionality) was much better at this.

Finally
Finally an awesome affordable app that I want to own and that you only pay for once 😁✨ I was out in Eryri today and someone pulled out their PeakFinder app and showed me how it worked. I was very impressed. It’s practically magic especially as I’m constantly looking at the mountains in the distance trying to figure out which ones they are. I was so excited that I had to get it for myself. Thank you 🙏

Brilliant App
I emailed a question re: the sunset calculations (which use the centre of the sun FYI, for eclipse viewers) and got a fantastic response in less than a day. Great app, great dev. Well worth the money.
Possibly the best app in the world
I don’t really ever write reviews, but I’m making an exception because this app means a lot to me. Not just for what it does - though it does that very well - but also for its general philosophy. It is a paragon for digital products everywhere, a small clear spring in a fetid swamp of subscriptions, adverts, poor design, and bloat. You pay a small amount once, and receive, forever, a tool that is both useful and pleasurable to use. It’s like a good knife, or a well-designed pencil sharpener: you’re not going to need it all the time, but when you do, it’s there and it works, and the experience of it working is aesthetically and functionally beautiful. Thank you to the creator of this app for providing some hope in a dark world.

Geklärt
Kann seit dem letzten update Fotos nicht mehr speichern: nach dem Auslösen des Fotos passiert gar nichts mehr. Geklärt: es dauert manchmal 10 Sekunden, bis das Foto erscheint. Das hatte ich nicht erwartet
Response from developer
PeakFinder speichert die Fotos innerhalb der App (über das PeakFinder Menu ‚Fotos‘). Wenn dort wirklich keine Foto mehr erscheinen melden sie sich bitte direkt bei mir unter info@peakfinder.com.
