Not free

I downloaded it because it said it was free but it only had a free trial it’s a great app if you’re willing to pay

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you like the app. We’re sorry for the confusion, the app includes a free trial so users can try all features before deciding to subscribe. We appreciate you giving it a try.

Everything is behind a paywall

I downloaded this app from Tik Tok, which suggested that I would be able to find cool rocks, gems, and minerals around my location. Upon downloading, and after creating an account, you are immediately brought to the option to subscribe monthly or weekly. I didn’t subscribe, because every app hides everything worth anything behind a paywall. Would you like to see the map? Sure! But you want to filter your results? You have to pay a subscription! Nope! No thank you! At this rate, I’d much rather just go to the creek bed outside and see what I can find there on a warm day and a good manual!

Response from developer

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. We understand subscriptions aren’t for everyone. The app does offer free access to explore the map and see nearby locations, while advanced filters and detailed data are part of the paid plan. We’ve already expanded the free features recently, but building and maintaining accurate rock, mineral, and location data takes real time and resources. The subscription helps support that work. Totally fair if you prefer heading to the creek with a manual, that’s rockhounding at its best. The app is there as an optional tool for people who want deeper info and planning support.
