Great for finding new and fun track around my area
★★★★★Leslie Birch (Skippytbk)· Jan 19, 2026
A great app. Takes away the guesswork of whether I take the high road, or the low road.
★★★★★MigalooN80· Sep 13, 2025
Such a great app! Great for camping ideas close to 4wd tracks. Could be better though, maybe directional options for tracks. Some are easier one way than the other. And needs android auto compatibility.
★★★★☆Adam Dingli· Sep 4, 2025
Great app, only thing letting it down is no Android Auto but does have Carplay. Would like to see it in a future update

Poor Track Coverage poor interface... I previously had a premium subscription some years ago. I stopped it because the user experience and track coverage was poor. I hoped that it would have improved over the last few years but alas It's still severely lacking. Main difficult tracks in an area is covered with ratings but apart from that, coverage is severely lacking. The user interface is terrible... Hangs on Android Auto. Route navigation is terrible. No good I'm afraid. Don't waste your money.

Requires sign in before you can even test to see if it's any good. Not for me.
