Unreliable

Stupid app required you log on to use. When I need it most is in wilderness where I have no internet!

That defeats its purpose for no valid reason except to market me trash!

App no longer works on iPhone X and app support does not respond to repeated requests for help

This used to be a very useful app when it worked. Now when trying to use it, (neither radar or grid works these are frozen). I have uninstalled the app, reset the phone, and reinstalled and same result. I have emailed the developer multiple times an have been ignored. They obviously don’t give a crap. I am uninstalling from mi iPhone for good.

Brought back memories

I install the app over a year ago but did not use it until yesterday. I was trying to find out the location of a restaurant which I have visited months back but I could not find the address or the name. That’s when I used the app to get that information from the photo of my food which I have taken back then. It was amazing it picked up the location, the name, created a saved bookmark, and gave me the exact directions right to their doorstep. It was easy to use and I can’t wait to find more of its useful features.

Most features of any similar app

In spite of a learning curve, no other “return to location” is as good.

Pluses:
- only app with three modes to return
- only app with a return map
- only app that can pick up location from a picture
- picture of location
- sortable list of locations, plus folders
- good “help”

Minuses:
- interface not always obvious
- slow startup
- sending location to another person works poorly

Response from developer

Thank you LayFull for your feedback. We will improve on your suggestions.

Don't bother

Not useful, weird UI. I wanted to delete my account, but there's no way to do that. "Contact Us" feature does not work. This app is not ready for use.
