Works perfect. Loved it. But that would be sp great if you can add the inverse location find option. I mean that user select a location from map and ar presentation shows selected location on screen. But again it is a great app. Thanks a lot

This is pretty cool! Although, I wish it had more features. Like settings
to change the unit measure from meters to miles. Also, it would be nice to
mark a location on the AR map to calculate distances and be share the
points to the Google Maps app to provide directions how to get there. I can
really see Google Maps utilizing this someday. Just saying. Other than
that, it is a great useful tool!
★★☆☆☆
Powerful but a mess. Text is either too tiny or too big. Text collides with other text. AR topographic map that appears when zooming should just take over the screen instead of partially overlaying the camera image because the two aren't compatible. There could be a toggle or transparency slider instead. A find feature might be nice. I was looking for a peak which should have been in view but couldn't find it.
★★☆☆☆
Difficult to use. Display on screen does not match the images in the description. The description shows the word distance and the word altitude. I see something like a ruler laying at a 45-degree angle that might indicate distance and there's some kind of vertical bar that might indicate altitude. But the distance is definitely wrong I pointed at a house across the street that's a hundred fifty feet away and its reporting less than 70. There is a half circle at the bottom of the screen that I have no idea what it's supposed to do. There's also a yellow blotch that sort of floats around on the screen but no description of what it's supposed to do sometimes a strawberry like red icon pops up and floats around I have no idea what that indicates.
