Ratings and reviews

Worked for a few months but was unable to log in as email confirmation was never sent. After that it would load and work until information or coordinates were entered, then it would stop, reload and so on. Last time it just crashed and went blank. I hope the update addresses these things. I find it to be a very useful application and wish to participate.

I think it's pretty nice how it maps out the machines. The UI looks great. I do wish that there were an explicit field for cost per credit or somewhere to describe costs for each location because some places do free play or hourly rates or daily specials. I notice that this is sometimes added to the location description but it's very hit or miss and I think it would increase the data quality to have a new field added.

Love Pinball Maps! Although, right now the app crashes when you change a Stern machine from being online or offline for insider connected.
