Ratings and reviews

I live in the Colorado mountains and I've been using this app for a couple of years - it's awesome. You can be in one spot and know exactly the mountains you are seeing. Move a few miles and the perspective changes. Drive a few miles and wonder what the names of the new mountains you're seeing might be? Bring up Peak Visor, match the app profiles to what your phone camera sees and you have the answers.

I feel like I wasted my money on this app. The iPhone version is so much better. This feels like the annoying little brother that wants to do everything big brother does but just embarrasses it's self. It never knows which way it's pointing. You have to drag across the screen & hope you can line up the mountains. You also better have rock steady hands, one tiny move, and the whole outline freaks out and moves so that you are always fighting to keep it lined up. This feels like the wish version.

I've heard it's much better on the iPad but the interface for Android phones is very wonky. The tutorial is ineffective at teaching the basics of the app and the menus are confusing. If all you're looking for is peak naming, PeakFinder would be better. No useful route and trail info in the app even though they advertise it.
