Comments on Forager's Buddy - GPS foraging for Android
★★★★★John Smith· Feb 12, 2022
Not being able to save location/notes if GPS accuracy is more than 12 meters is dumb. Not being able to save location/notes if you're not AT THAT SPOT is dumb. Unless you're trying to verify the data as being accurate, but a person could enter false info at that location, so ultimately, futile, and annoying. As is not being able to fully test the app - everything I try to do I have to buy pro version. Other than that, nice app.

I am an urban forager (city life)! And it has been so difficult to find a good app to save all of my finds on! I love this! Thank you!
★★★★★Alana Mullen· Aug 5, 2022
It does what it's supposed to do! There are other apps to mark down observations, but this makes it easy to find specifically your observations on a map. I needed to use map auto-center, and I think that's what was confusing some people. I would like if you could add observations without being at the location, or be able to edit names and such.

Best app ever for marking private foraging spots! The creator is very responsive and helpful to problems, I'm so glad I was able to copy my backed-up foraging data to my new phone

The map kept taking me back to a single location when trying to view a place on the map I wasn't currently at, also could not save locations
★★☆☆☆Ellie Spinks· Oct 22, 2019
The map won't allow you to move about to look for locations with items. It keeps snapping back to your current location.
★☆☆☆☆Craig Bryan· Apr 18, 2018
Completely useless! Can't search map locations. Can't search for food type.
Can't zoom or scroll the map, it keeps resetting to current location. It
claims to be for the UK but one of the screenshots of the app is of
Cyprus. Has the potential to be very useful but totally fails in every
aspect!
