About this app

Well deisgned app. But subscriptions are too expensive. And free version is far too limiting, once you have uploaded data you use your allowable cloud space, even if you delete all data there is no cloud space for you to upload to.

Hi Grant, it is possible to free up your cloud space, you just have to delete the data from the file and database manager. If you have any issues with that you can always contact our Support Team at support@giscloud.com or through our live support feature on the web and we'll help you along.

Hi there! Sorry to see you're having issues with the application. We have checked the latest released version again and we couldn't find any issues with it nor we received any complaints from existing users. We assume the issue might be with the map itself and not the app so please reach out to us at support@giscloud.com so we could investigate.
