Worthless it has no Maps no trials it doesn't do anything, but for some reason it tried to send me to Mexico I am from Birmingham England I'm not walking that far
★★☆☆☆ Donex Hynson Jr. · Oct 12, 2025
I used to like this app before. But since the developer limits the number of waypoints in the free version, this app no longer useful.
★☆☆☆☆ Your Name · Aug 24, 2026
Been using this for a couple of years at least. L was very impressed with this app before but for months now l can't connect to satellites at all. My settings are right and its up to date. Would love an idea of why bc this was a great app up until now.
