Heavily needs that function. ### 4/5 — Good, Not Great *2019-05-27* Good tool for building scenarios quickly. Would utilize more if there was a CAS 9Line feature. ### 2/5 — Military task symbols are not available. *2019-03-05* Fix the symbols for the military events. Such as tasks and the tactical symbols as it won’t show. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. In the latest build (v. 3.3) we have a preliminary group of military tasks that are now supported and we have plans to add more in future builds. Please check it out. We'd love to hear your feedback via email at sales@obscurityllc.com ### 1/5 — ATAK & WinTAK have it right *2018-09-24* Guys, don’t try to reinvent the wheel - ATAK & WinTAK have already done the necessary leg work - coordinate with their dev teams to bring the necessary functionality to the Apple universe. Apple is known for innovation, but NOT in this case. ### 4/5 — Add MGRS overlay and range and bearing tools *2018-09-22* Imagery and point dropping work great, would love an MGRS overlay and range and bearing tool ### 3/5 — Seamless *2017-11-25, version 2.1* App runs flawlessly! Great potential, unfortunately I feel the $20.00 a month fee to use will turn most people who want to use this app off. I’m willing to pay $10.00 for the BFT, but if you think police officers and regular military guys are going to pay $20.00 a month you’re delusional. ### 3/5 — Good but could be way better *2017-11-07* Would love to use this as my primary mapping for team use but to only have gps useable with location ALWAYS ON instead of also WHILE USING. I feel like the ball got dropped. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Probable scam *2022-01-12* The developers website is broken, contact forms don’t work, and their sales email listed on it returns as an invalid address. I wouldn’t trust this app with access to my location services if I were you. I’m not trusting it with mine. ### 1/5 — Purchase *2020-12-20* The app is great until i go to purchase the teams and bft. When i submit the purchase it tries to load and says no purchase found. So now im out 20 bucks for this useless thing. Garbage ### 1/5 — Great app but overpriced *2020-09-07* We loved the app until we saw the price for my team. The search continues. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t serve much purpose *2020-09-03* If you have come here looking for an iPhone equivalent version of the ATAK. Turn around. Can’t plan routes, navigates by taking you out and using Apple Maps. Can’t even plot a point based on coords. Essentially just google earth that can stamp a symbol on a map ### 1/5 — Can’t add teams *2020-08-22* I bought the app paid for and all. I cannot add teams. It asks for me to purchase it again. I tap the monthly package and still cannot add teams. **Developer response:** I apologize for the issue you experienced while subscripting to Team Sharing. Please contact us at sales@Obscurityllc.com and we will make sure that we get the subscription issue resolved. ### 1/5 — Too expensive for what it does *2020-08-16* Too expensive, $100,00 per year jut to share map information. ### 1/5 — My review *2020-06-12* This app does not work I don’t like it don’t download it it’s a waste of space and if you do download it just delete it because it’s an app that does not work because I tested it **Developer response:** We apologize SITREP build 3.2 had a bug for customers using a device running iOS 12 or iOS 11 that caused a crash on opening the app. Please download the updated build 3.3 and the crash is fixed ### 1/5 — Broke with the most recent update *2020-06-11* I used this app constantly at work. With the most recent update it is now not functional. It crashes as soon as I open it. Reinstalled with same result. Very disappointed I can no longer use it. **Developer response:** We apologize SITREP build 3.2 had a bug for customers using a device running iOS 12 or iOS 11 that caused a crash on opening the app. Please download the updated build 3.3 and the crash is fixed ### 1/5 — Problems *2020-05-23* This was hands down a 5 star app until I installed the update. Now it refuses to open and I’m afraid all my pins and notes have been lost. **Developer response:** We apologize SITREP build 3.2 had a bug for customers using a device running iOS 12 or iOS 11 that caused a crash on opening the app. Please download the updated build 3.3 and the crash is fixed Additionally, all of your recorded data should be saved in the updated 3.3 build, as long as you did not delete the app. ### 1/5 — Broken App *2020-05-11* This is a great app for those that can get it to work. I downloaded. Opened. And it force closed. Uninstalled, reinstalled, opened, and the app force closed again. Went to the website to find support, FAQ, account registration etc. just to find a minimal site with none of what I was looking for. As an armed professional I am happy to purchase and subscribe to this service. Alas there is no way to do so. If someone from “obscurity llc.” (Fitting name) wants to contact me with a reply to this review, that would be just great. **Developer response:** We apologize SITREP build 3.2 had a bug for customers using a device running iOS 12 or iOS 11 that caused a crash on opening the app. Please download the updated build 3.3 and the crash is fixed ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great App: how to’s on TAK website *2022-01-24, version 3.3* Visit tak.gov for good training videos. ### 5/5 — Great app, one crucial part is missing *2021-10-25* Love the app, but please please please allow map downloading ### 5/5 — very nice *2020-11-08* thank you for program ### 5/5 — Question *2020-08-23* When you purchase teams with bft does every member of that team have to purchase that package or only one person purchases the package and adds other team members to their team **Developer response:** Teams with BFT is required for each SITREP user for them to participate in the Team data and location sharing. However, if you are a member of the US Military or another US government agency please reach out to us at sales@obscurityllc.com and we can help you get access to all the features of SITREP for free via the NGA App Store. ### 5/5 — Bridges a huge gap in capability for LE and public safety *2017-08-25* I'm not a rep for this company,but I have been pushing this heavily with all of my LE clients that I train. This is a COTS solution that instantly fills a massive gap in officer safety, personell management, and planning. This app esssentially gives any agency the instant ability to be aware of all of their officer's real time positions. Commanders can instantly plan operations and share the plan with all subordinates. Individual officer can also instantly and seamlessly relay reliable ground level intel to descision makers. ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2016-05-17* This app is an amazing app. I personally use this app for airsoft and mil sim operations... One improvement would be cached maps and ability to send Intel and map details to others who use this app... ### 4/5 — Update not updating *2023-04-13* I hit the update but it seems like it doesn’t update.. ### 4/5 — Great item, but team chat should not be paid. *2021-12-12* Hello, I love this app, it is a great tool, and could possibly be used in the military. The only thing I’d suggest is that team chat and making teams should be free, and not a paid thing. ### 4/5 — Question *2020-10-27, version 3.3* I’m a 12B but have MOS qualifications as 11B and 31B in the Army. I was just wondering if this is the civilian (obviously iOS) version of the android tactical assault kit which is currently being used. ### 4/5 — Good but one issue *2020-05-26* Decent app few things could be better but over all good. one issue I noticed is with the latest update all of a sudden the app decides to crash every time i open it hope this gets fixed soon. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
