### 5/5 — AgroproShop

*2026-08-17*

Excelente!

### 5/5 — Sunny Corner to Capertee

*2026-08-16*

Awesome drive, has it’s moments with a few rocky downhills, just pick your line and it’s fine. 
2026 Triton with no lift.

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2026-08-14, version 3.30.2*

It is good for planning trails are following existing routes, but it is a real nuisance if you want to use the application for browsing a map area, since it keeps jumping around, trying to show you trails in the area.

### 5/5 — Ticks the boxes

*2026-08-14, version 3.30.2*

Certainly does the job for my requirements.

### 3/5 — It’s good but it needs some work

*2026-08-13*

Recently moved to Spain and needed something to learn the area and plan routes, which the app is great for, purely based on that it would get 5 stars. 

However the navigation functionality is frustrating. It desperately needs a “lock controls” button like the Apple fitness app, as it switches screens constantly if a drop of sweat lands on the phone screen, which is the last thing you want on single track in the mountains.

The other frustration is that it seems to moves waypoints and on longer routes this isn’t obvious until it sends you on a detour several hundred meters down a climb to a waypoint only to have you do a u-turn and head back up again.

Finally the navigation view shows far to little, so you can be right on top of a roundabout before you can see where you’re going, and you find yourself looking at the screen when you should be checking for traffic and it’s pot-luck whether it’s switched itself to the route planning screen so you have to stop and try to switch back with sweaty hands.

### 4/5 — Excelente ! Muito bom

*2026-08-05*

Deveria apenas atualizar os filtros e modalidades! 
Não tem a opção de criar trilha usando carro off road , quadriciclo, moto!  Também não possui a modalidade de  UTV, nem para criar nem para gravar trilha

### 1/5 — Sem opção

*2026-08-04*

Não tem opção de excluir seguidores e isso é muito ruim.

### 1/5 — Did not save 1st walk

*2026-08-03, version 3.30.1*

Will probably cancel premium

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2026-08-01, version 3.30.1*

Application free version is useless. Any helpful feature requires Premium subscription.

### 1/5 — Stop nagging me for reviews.

*2026-07-30, version 3.30.1*

Stop nagging me for reviews.
