Ratings and reviews

This is a really great app. I had little trouble with the lite version, but this full version works well and is quite a powerful tool. I have one complaint. Whenever you come back to it, it always closes and needs to be reopened; which takes a bit. I am still giving it five stars because I just don't see anything out there that is this powerful.

Updating my 1 star review. The developer acknowledged the bug, said there would be a fix in a few days, and there was a fix in a few days. App works as expected (and as it always has in the past). I do wish it was easier to find on the app store though for recommending it to others. Putting in "itrack" reveals nothing. You have to search for "nature tracking" and scroll for quite a bit. But the app itself is top tier quality.

Was great, but no longer works in Android 10. I installed it on my old phone and it worked fine. On my new phone, a Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra running Android10, the app crashes every time I try to open it. Edit: I uninstalled it and then reinstalled, and it works fine now. It's an excellent app.
