-Farout is poorly built. -PC and Android version does not display GPS coordinates of the way points. -no way to open those points in a different app, aside from opening walking directions in Google maps (hows that going to work in the back country). -dropping a custom waypoint makes the app close. -The PC version does not let you filter way points. if you're hiking AT get the AWOL guide. now I'm on the PCT and the app is not updating comments on way points.

I've been using for many years, first as Guthook and now called FarOut. Great for planning my section backpacking trip then using while hiking (with phone in airplane mode), being able to find out exactly where I am at any point along the hike along with being able to see how far it is to next water source, shelter, road crossing, etc (along with elevation profile ahead). Only wish this great app had similar purchases for my bike packing trips!

Hi Don! We are thrilled to hear that you have enjoyed using the FarOut App. We offer guides for bike packing as well. You should be able to filter guide types (hiking, biking, horseback, paddling) in the store page. If there are any bike packing guides we don't currently offer that you are looking for please let us know at support@faroutguides.com

Attention developers, for some reason I'm getting a bug with my version of the app. On the Appalachian trail map on the elevation mode, I am not seeing the little blue dot marking my location like I used to. Everything else is working fine and it seems to calculate my location as well as distance to and from other waypoints fine but the little blue dot is gone and it's nice to have. Hopefully you can fix
