### 2/5 — Review of map features

*2025-01-23*

Mini items do not download on my iPad not happy with the app

### 4/5 — Good App Please help

*2024-10-29, version 1.6*

Still waiting for full version to download

### 2/5 — Meh.

*2024-10-04*

I have the pay version. Maps (state or country) cannot be opened fully to see the whole map. Also, many maps I can't even see to the edge of the map. 

Also, the details tab does nothing. Blank page.

### 2/5 — Not really useful for iPad

*2024-05-28*

Content appears good, but not formatted for iPad.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2024-04-21*

The map detail tab not working after paying for the app. It functions the same as the free one. Please check the app and update.

### 3/5 — No detailed maps

*2024-03-21*

It’s nice looking maps but there is no detailed maps.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t fully work

*2024-02-19*

Will not open to see a full state without moving around and manipulating. Also, the detailed map toggle doesn’t work at all. Totally wasted money

### 1/5 — Bad

*2023-12-17*

Worst map I ever spent money for.

### 2/5 — Too Small

*2023-07-02*

Need larger maps

### 1/5 — Wasted money for ipad

*2023-01-20*

Terrible mistake

### 3/5 — Poor Fisical Maps

*2022-12-29*

- I expected fisical maps with best resolution.

- I expected more didactic fisical maps: 
• To see the main rivers and lakes and of the continents with national borders.
• Chains of mountains with names and with national borders.

- Climatic and vegetation maps.

- Pluviometric for cities with months (to travel).

### 1/5 — $1.99

*2022-03-16*

Can I get my money back?  Just purchased it and it’s not detailed enough. My street and surrounding area are not marked. Please tell me how to get a return! TB

### 1/5 — Worthless.  Doesn’t Display Fully.

*2022-03-01*

Don’t waste your money. Does not display each State fully as some of the state is truncated on iPhone. I want a refund because of false advertising.  I know I won’t get the refund, but Apple should ban this company.

### 3/5 — Conciseness

*2021-08-27*

Your maps are concise where needed!

### 3/5 — USA Maps

*2021-08-06, version 1.3*

Good for general use but more detail please.

### 2/5 — Kansas

*2021-07-30, version 1.3*

Where is Wichita (the largest city in the state) in the data section. Makes me skeptical about the rest of the data accuracy.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-07-03*

Couldn’t use it on my iPad because I couldn’t get it to show the entire United States. I couldn’t minimize the map and had the same problem on my iPhone. Hopefully somebody will refund my money.

### 1/5 — Disappointing, Poor Maps, Detailed are Online

*2025-05-25*

I wanted to like this and should have listened to the reviews. The Reference Maps cannot be fully scrolled around, the bottom 20 percent of a state is unviewable with the map snapping into the wrong position. 

Detailed Maps are online only (despite the app claiming offline), and do not indicate a source. Why bother when Apple Maps are free?

### 1/5 — Overview

*2025-03-19*

Details and view

### 1/5 — Very poor detail

*2025-01-27*

I was hoping for reasonably detailed maps showing most cities, rivers, lakes, etc. along with their names.  This app falls far short of that and, IMO, is a waste of money.

### 1/5 — Unsatisfied

*2024-12-01*

Detailed map section doesnt work

### 1/5 — There is parts of the whole map missing!

*2024-11-06*

The map only shows 47 states shown on the map, why?

### 1/5 — Does not work properly

*2024-10-29*

The detailed tab does not
work and is blank on all maps.  Very unhappy that I cannot use this feature.

### 1/5 — Do not spend the money. What a waste!

*2024-07-18, version 1.6*

You think it would be easy. Simple maps, and maps of the whole US that you can view, but no sadly. Do not waste your time or money with this app you can pinch zoom out as much as you want and it will not show you everything that you’re actually looking for.here’s an idea folks out there developing this app. If you’re gonna have the sense to put out an app that you pay for it better work right? This isn’t complicated rocket science. Everyone out there looking at possibly downloading this find something else.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste the money

*2024-06-15*

Tabs don’t work. Map resizing doesn’t work. It’s a junk app.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2024-05-28, version 1.6*

There is no detailed map

### 5/5 — Pocket Maps

*2026-06-20, version 1.7*

It’s surprising how often I use this , it’s so handy and easy to use. Keep it up you’re doing great.

### 5/5 — Mapa dos Estados Unidos

*2025-07-03*

Positiva

### 5/5 — Van life

*2024-03-02*

Planning a van trip for the first time with my 85 year old mother. This pocket map is just so ticklish  to use at any given moment.
As an aid to preplanning this trip it is indescribable to open up and contemplate different ways to go to the same place.

This convenience is allowing me to  more efficiently route my trip and plan stops. I am not one to reserve hotels ahead due to arrival variations but this pocket app alone helps make that dynamic easier.

Not to mention the reference value once the wheels start turning …

### 5/5 — Good

*2022-11-18, version 1.6*

Useful for basic information. Would like to see more towns added

### 5/5 — Does the job

*2018-06-25, version 1.3*

Fits the description

### 5/5 — md

*2013-04-03, version 1.2*

### 5/5 — Cool

*2012-09-20, version 1.2*

### 5/5 — Great

*2012-06-15, version 1.2*

Great

### 5/5 — Hammer

*2012-02-24, version 1.2*

Very useful!

### 5/5 — A Fair Price!

*2012-02-21, version 1.2*

Exactly as described!  Exactly what I was looking for and at a fair price -THANK YOU!
