Garbage in- garbage out
It relies, of course, on how often the trail stewards update the conditions. If that’s not happening then the whole system doesn’t work.
I have tried to use the function in the app to push for an update but with limited (or not visible) success. Thats my only ding on this app.
Response from developer
Hi there, thanks for the review. I have built reminders and other gentle nudges into the system so that trail managers update more often. The "Thanks" and Checkin functions also go a long way to show trail managers that you're seeing and appreciating their updates. Beyond that, most trail managers are volunteers with limited time. Trailbot has dramatically increased the regularity of updates for the majority of the trail systems using the app, but it will never be perfect. I'd recommend getting to know your local trail stewards better by volunteering at work days or other events which may encourage more regular updates, give you the access to make updates yourself, or help you understand why updates might not be happening as often as you'd like.
