About

User reviews

Good but need some improvements

This app is easy to use and is accurate, the only issue I see is the area is shown in m2 and it actually is in ft2.
They should fix that and add the option to switch among other measurements options.

Response from developer

Fixed

Doesn't do anything

Ads block important parts of the screen and can't find the button to drop the pin, which is necessary.

Too many ads

I could never get it to work. The ads cover everything, so I couldn't even add one marker. Totally deleting

Garbage!

This app is hidden behind advertisements. The only thing it would be good for is measuring the area of property with known boundaries...it is not a GPS (and doesn't claim to be).
