### 1/5 — Pay Wall

*2026-07-22*

Used to be free but now has a pay wall. Thought this was made by a fan for players to use to help people. I get wanting to charge a little for the work but 10 bucks is a lot when most of this u can get free online. Plus modders make stuff all the time for free.

### 1/5 — Greed

*2026-03-29*

Grossly expensive subscription based access to maps. There’s lots of free versions online. Don’t waste your time and money here.

### 1/5 — No trial says free but charges

*2026-03-27*

As title. Tapped for free trial and it charged.
You can’t do anything in the app without paying.

### 4/5 — good

*2026-03-26*

it looks good, but i spawn in places not listed as spawn points on maps

### 5/5 — Another amazing app!

*2026-03-17*

I have been purchased this dev’s previous app for CoD and Arc Raiders , same quality and attention to detail is here as well! Maps are high resolution with great detail, and everything mark in a clean fashion for easy reference, it’d be nice if a social aspect like a hub like LFG hub where players can form a squad , even better if we can signin using our bungie id and have it linked to the app for easy matchmaking with like minded runners out there, keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — Best app out there for Marathon

*2026-03-16*

Great intuitive design and ease of use with in depth locations, POIs and everything in between that you need to get what you need in game. 10/10 app

### 3/5 — Hoping it gets better

*2026-03-13*

Not bad this early on. Hoping the app gets more interactive and gives more information.

### 5/5 — Does the job so far

*2026-03-12*

Good app

### 1/5 — Cash grab

*2026-03-12*

Absolutely zero reason this should be blocked behind a pay wall

### 5/5 — So far so good!

*2026-03-11*

A great start, database needs some work. Other app in store is paid so this one is a clear winner for the first week. Keep up the updates coming.
