### 2/5 — Map issues

*2025-06-21, version 2.2*

Works very well on Iphone, but on Ipad thinks the map thinks I'm over 300 hundred miles away from where I'm standing.

### 5/5 — Great App but Still Missing some Towers

*2024-08-14, version 2.2*

As the title says, this is a great app but despite the update, I am still missing some towers.  My phone is old, iPhone 7 so I don’t know if this might be the issue.  I can see the tower that I’m looking for on my iPad but it seems that the information doesn’t share between the two.  Maybe I’m missing a trick or two??

### 5/5 — A Great Asset

*2023-05-15, version 2.0*

It’s great to have a replacement for the Dove App. This is a handy and useful application giving information about towers with the ability to record dates of visits (general ringing, quarter peals and peals). The ability to link tower visits to specific peals and quarter peals on BellBoard is really good.

The development team must be congratulated for providing a means of importing visits, as long as you have the export file, from the now discontinued Dove app.

### 5/5 — Superb app

*2023-05-15, version 2.0*

Excellent app which has replaced the old Doves Guide that stopped working several years ago. If you still have the old records.csv file from the Doves app you can easily import the data. This app has also the tower info you need plus a very handy map showing the exact location of the church.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 2.2 — 2024-03-19

Fixed an issue whereby some towers were missing when downloading an update from Dove.

### 2.1 — 2023-07-20

* Added feature to allow view of the tower data on the Dove's guide website (which shows everything they have on the tower).
* Fix for issue when trying to update Dove's data from the Dove's Guide website, due to a change made after my initial release. If you want to update the data, go to settings and tap where you see 'Current data from', and it takes you to a screen which shows the date and time the last data was downloaded, as well as the number of towers included. If you tap the download icon in the top right, it will download the latest data from the Dove website and update your device.
