Reviews

Essential for backcountry navigation

I can triangle late my location using this app and my compass.

Know Your Terrain

If you're looking for the perfect companion to AllTrails, this is the app. I've been using it for years and only get lost when I want to.

Ranges?

It does not appear to indicate the mountain ranges which was all I was looking for. Google seems to indicate it can, but so far as I can see, it can’t.

Doesn’t work

I am sitting on top of Mt Watkins in Yosemite writing this review, with Half Dome smack in front of me, and it doesn’t identify Half Dome, nor Cloud’s Rest, which is directly to my left, nor several other prominent peaks. Keeps saying error, data for this location not downloaded, log out and then back in and a bunch of other crap I can’t do in the field because I don’t have my password with me. If it doesn’t work when I want to use it, it’s utterly useless.

Amazing app for hiking and offroading

Love this app when I'm up in the mountains of the PNW. Love marking locations for further information about once I get back home.

Doesn’t work

The download and everything does not come together seamlessly. I’ve been using this app for years and now that you have to pay for it it doesn’t work. I will cancel this app as soon as possible.

Smooth rendering. Limited usefulness.

Looks great. Not useful in the real world.

Most elegant app, ever?

I really love this app. Been using software a long time. This is one of the best of all time. Incredibly well thought out and performed.

Best money I spent

Amazing topography tool and makes identifying the peaks around so much easier. I missed having the app for all my hikes and now I am rediscovering peaks when hiking. Have used the App in Yosemite, kings canyon and all over PNW. Highly recommend it.
