User reviews

Amazing

Closest thing to FarOut mapping that you can get. Amazing app, super helpful!

Love the concept!

Some bugs with not being able to easily switch from waypoints to the map. And could not find the GPS coordinates to the waypoints, which would be very helpful especially for finding parking!

Trail map

Thanks for the hard work Josh an all whom ate involved creating this app
Thanks Jester for promoting the app

Incredibly helpful

I just finished the MST using this app in conjunction with the printed trail guides from FMST. The gps guidance was incredibly helpful in many places. The developer is friendly and welcomed my gpx files where the trail had changed or rerouted.

Great app

Just wish it had more of a social platform to see if others are walking the trail

Response from developer

Thanks for the rating! The profile in the app is the foundation for more social opportunities in the future, so stay tuned!
