Horrible

Downloaded and deleted three times. Froze up the first two times on the logo screen. Third time it let me zoom in to where it says I would be searching then froze up.

Still doesn’t work

Supposedly they fixed it but still won’t go past logo screen.

Response from developer

We fixed this in the latest update. Please update the app and try again. If it still locks up, email us at support@rockhoundr.com and we'll help you out. Thanks!

Very useful and cool app

Nice work devs, very cool app my kids can’t wait to start taking family trips to all the cool rock spots on our app I 10/10 recommend this all

Useful even in places I know well

Downloaded the app a few weeks ago. The second location I checked out turned into one of my best days of collecting this year. Ended up finding agate that’s now sitting on my display shelf. Could have been luck but the app definitely pointed me in the right direction.

Scam App

There are zero locations listed, it’s just a blank map

Response from developer

The app is not a scam. It includes thousands of real, hand-verified rockhounding locations across the US, and they're visible on the map from first launch. A blank map means the map data failed to load on your device, which usually comes down to a network issue the first time the app opens. Force-close the app and reopen it on wifi, or delete and reinstall, and the locations will appear. If it still shows nothing after that, email us at support@rockhoundr.com with your iPhone model and iOS version and we'll get it working.

Piper

The product froze. Doesn’t work at all.

Response from developer

Sorry about that, freezing is not normal and we want to fix it. Could you email support@rockhoundr.com with your iPhone model, iOS version, and what you were doing when it froze (opening the map, tapping a spot, etc.)? In the meantime, updating to the latest version and restarting the app resolves this for most people.

Way better than competition

Love the informative details and lat long to specific locations to search for rocks etc

Doesn't even work anymore

This is no longer functional. Won't work on iPhone.

Response from developer

Sorry you hit this. We released an update recently that fixes a startup issue some iPhone users were seeing, so please update to the latest version from the App Store, or delete and reinstall if the problem continues. If it still will not open after that, email support@rockhoundr.com and we will get you sorted.

Finally app that gets it

Been rockhounding for about 6 years now, mostly in Arizona and New Mexico. Tried a bunch of apps before this one. This app just works, clean, fast, no weird stuff.
