### 3/5 — Bottom buttons

*2018-12-19, version 8.1*

Excellent and highly informative, however on my iPhone 7 the bottom buttons are only half exposed and don’t function.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t seem to work

*2018-11-20, version 8.1*

Looks like this could be a really good app but for me none of the icons along the bottom of the screen work. They are all half obscured and don’t do anything when touched. Shame.

### 5/5 — Great Fossil guide app

*2018-10-19, version 8.1*

This app is really great! Helped me find locations near me to go fossil hunting. The amount of detail it gives on each location is very professional. From what you can expect to find, rock types, safely issues and even local near by parking. At the moment the app on apple iphone isn’t displaying the taps at the bottom of the app correctly. Aside from that, the app is brilliant. 5 stars from me.

### 5/5 — A* app!

*2017-01-21, version 8.1*

An lovely app. So much detail and information. Couldn't rate it any higher. Keep up the good work. Great app 👍🏻 😊

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2016-08-29, version 7.4.1*

A Fantastic app for keen fossil freaks!
