Ratings and reviews

Promising, for sure. Imagery really good, very easy to transition to this app if you are familiar with ARCgis or GE. update* I feel as though drawing a line has become much more difficult then it was prior to update. I don't have the freedom I once did. The line will stop abruptly and The pencil will be shaded dark on one end and light on the other. But trying to resume with either end doesn't seem to work.

Nice but not quite there yet..excellent UI that makes it easy to plot a route for myountain runs, but REALLY needs a way to edit plots to fine tune and a "snap" to road (in my case trail) feature to make easier. Don't mind a subscription, but currently at $7.99 it's a turn off, would jump on if a little cheaper at $4.99. Need to really test out exporting also to test with my Coros Apex watch, but have to subscribe to do that (even though there is a 14 day trial)..

Sketchy, even with stylus. Using a Samsung Note with stylus should be better. The app doesn't let you zoom in close enough for detailed edits. The app needs the ability to "move" points instead of just deleting then redrawing... which results in jaggedy lines. THEN they want $7/year! It doesn't work good enough for that! UPDATE: 1/18/20 The merge tracks is kinda helpful but it doesn't let you pick two points to merge, it kinda guesses. Let us ZOOM IN more then pick dots to connect.
