### 3/5 — まあ良いのではないでしょうか

*2026-07-11*

特に不具合ないと思いますけどわ

### 2/5 — Prior performance was good

*2026-07-09, version 6.19*

Upon updates the app tends to freeze.

### 3/5 — Not what I expected

*2026-06-14, version 6.18*

I downloaded this app for a trip to Great Basin National Park. I chose to let it track me so I could see how high I hiked. The trailhead is at 10,000 feet. I didn’t realize until it was too late that it only saves your info for an hour. I’m very disappointed.

### 3/5 — needs a plain background.

*2026-05-29, version 6.17*

Using this while driving, in an EV, I’d like the option of a big display on a plain black background.

### 2/5 — Red compass points to South, not North!

*2026-04-20, version 6.14*

Now that’s what is called “misleading!”

### 1/5 — Porn adds at bottom

*2026-01-29, version 6.14*

The app was always okay, today I opened it and a very graphic porn add comes up at the bottom. I guess I am deleting the app right now

### 5/5 — L’altimètre au poignet et données précises
