Recent Reviews: It works! by compudog on Dec 6, 2010 version 1.0 Really useful and does exactly what it claims to do. I travel a lot in my work and this is one of those simple, streamlined apps that made me wonder what I did without it after a couple of days. Thankful by Thank you123 on Dec 3, 2010 version 1.0 Great app! Very easy to use, accurate, I am able to check in with my family and friends by sending a quick email that shows where I am by address with a map of the area. Great if I am traveling or in my home town. It takes me less then a minute and i feel like I'm being responsible. Great for garage sales, directions, being picked up, also a GREAT way to track kids. Thank you Mac papa! Fantastic App! Very Helpful by GRANT TURCK on Dec 3, 2010 version 1.0 All I can say is WOW! This app is the perfect solution for sharing my location with friends. The shizzle! Must have for everyone! by Dr. Dizz on Nov 30, 2010 version 1.0 I deliver pizza at night and I can rarely see the address numbers on houses. I used it tonight for the first time and woala! As I drive down the street the address is updated in big readable letters. I tried other apps, but they don't autoupdate, the address is on another screen and way too small to read while driving. This is simplicity at its finest! Note: more features will come soon! ## Key features - Calculate current address - Display interactive map - Large, readable address number - Email current address and map - Double-click to drop a pin - Triple-click to reveal pin address - Auto-updates location every 20 seconds ## Recent user reviews (10 of 20) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/whats-this-address/id405151704/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Can't do anything... *2015-12-19* Every time I touch a button, and at times it doesn't even give me the chance to, it crashes and closes. It used to work great, but now it's not even worth the thought of downloading it. ### 1/5 — No longer working- crashes *2014-07-26* What happened?? Did you give up on this app? ### 1/5 — No longer works *2014-05-18* Was quite accurate at one point, but no longer functions at all. ### 5/5 — My one and only *2013-10-06* Update: Still number 1. By far, this is the most accurate address finder in the App Store. I've tried them all and no update needed! ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2013-09-26* This app is great until shuts down 2 seconds after you open it. ### 5/5 — Working again! (Thanks, Google) *2013-08-18* For a while, this app ceased working, apparently because of a Google interface change. Happily, it's working again, and it will nail your address just about every time in an urban area (on a country road, street numbers are fairly vague). Amazingly, it also works perfectly in Italy, probably most of Europe, and perhaps other parts of the world as well, depending on local governments' data. ### 1/5 — Is the developer an idiot ? *2013-08-12* This app didn't work for months and months. It was then updated and worked again for a whole two weeks. What a waste of space on my phone and the App Store ### 5/5 — Perfect *2012-09-01* I needed my address to order a pizza. This worked out great. It started out by saying I was in the gulf of Mexico but after waiting a few seconds It updates to my current street address. Anyone having problems with this app is just stupid. Thank you for helping me get my pizza. ### 5/5 — This is good *2012-07-06* Even in the Thai/Burmese mountains, this works. The locals could not give an address to one property, they just described it. This app was correct. Google Maps did not have an address. ### 4/5 — Easy to use *2012-03-01* It helps to tap on the update button ## Frequently asked questions about What's This Address? ### What's This Address? shows my current address and map.
