Ratings and reviews

Had it going within minutes, and it functioned well enough. I connected an Arrow 100 GNSS, and as someone doing this for the first time it was very easy. Can't speak towards it's usefullness in a professional setting, but it looks pretty legit all around. Also it is apparently produced and provided for free by the company that produced my GNSS. That is cool..

The Android version of this app is lagging in update compared to same iOS app. Eos needs to hurry up and match the update in Android. Also Eos needs to create their own field collection app option for those that don't want to use Esri Collector. This would put Eos clearly over the top of a competitor like Trimble who also lacks good app development.

I'd give it a zero but you cannot do that and submit. I'm an engineer and an Extra class amateur radio operator , so I'm pretty sure I know what I'm doing with technology. It does not connect to my samsung galaxy phone which is on the compatibility list. I uninstalled it...
