Ratings and reviews

I love the idea of the app, however you can be in the heart of the park but you don't get full points because you have no signal. Or you can be in the middle of the park but it's not the area they choose for check in. To the Developer - I normally check in at the Visitors Center when I get my passport stamp. For example, when I checked in at The Visitor Center for Fossil Butte, it said I was not within the radius. My phone location is on and set to precise location.

I love the idea of this app. A big problem is checking into other parks. It never seems to give you credit even if I'm physically in the park. Another problem is that it never seems to save my data. It used to let me save stuff but it doesnt work anymore. When I put on location to see if there are other parks near me it does not show any parks at all! One improvement after fixing the problems is perhaps indexing by state. So far it only does it by category (like a park or a seashore).

This app has so much potential! But there are a few things that drive me crazy! First, it is SUPER buggy. It sometimes takes 2 or 3 tries to record I am at a park. Second on my profile page, under # of parks, it ALWAYS says 1! Ugh! If # of check-ins can be accurate why not that?? Finally, PLEASE separate the places i have visited by category! I want the number of national parks separately reported from monuments, historical parks etc.
