No frills app - could be improved
It would have been great to be able to download a gpx file of the route.
Other than that, it does a pretty good job
Very good app
Minor fixes needed
Minor issues:
Features - North and distance markers / grid not shown on maps
Content - Ingleton is no where near the Horton-in Ribblesdale railway station as mentioned on the Inglebrough walk
Work in progress
The directions are OK, and it is not the app developer’s fault the arrow has fallen off the crucial path signpost where Horton and Clapham walkers part company on the way down. I thought I had overshot the turning, and it was only in hindsight using Viewranger that I had definitely gone the correct way. If the route stated the footpath joined the Pennine Bridleway I wouldn’t have felt lost for so long.
The app is a bit odd:
-The graphics/buttons are from the iPod touch 2nd generation era. The use of buttons to link back to previous pages is inconsistent.
-The Feedback button opens a box and lets you type, but you can’t submit it as it contains “invalid arguments”.
-I don’t know what “Layar” is, but that doesn’t work either - it generates a security error message on a third party website.
-The GPS functionality DEFINITELY isn’t in there. I’m running 12.4 on an SE. The arrowhead button on the map legend does nothing, and there is no entry for the app in Location Services. I had 4G reception almost all the way round too.
-Once you click “Start” on the route instructions page you are taken to the map. It’s a nice touch that there is a stopwatch function, but 1)The distance doesn’t change (because the GPS isn’t there), and 2)If you want to toggle back to the text instructions you have to abandon your timing, which then resets when you “Start” again.
It’s worth £2.99 at the moment, just. It NEEDS to be brought up to date, to match the website.

No GPS and Aug Reality flaky
Black screen
Just a little peek would be nice.
I realise that the three peaks get dark, particularly during the winter months, but can you please sort it out, so I may at least get one look at the three peaks.
Great Idea
My favourite features are the panoramic views, safety advice and the ability to view different walks on an OS map to work out where to go before I arrive.
Definately worth downloading.
