Ratings and reviews

The old version was A LOT better. The UI was more intuitive and the pricing model was reasonable. The behavior of the menu is outright annoying. They're charging more for a lesser quality product. Users never want the GUI randomized. Never. The classic navigation was easier for new and experienced users. Version 4 was designed by an expert for an expert. Ambiguous icons without labels are guessing game. It was not made with a new user in mind and it makes supporting users extremely difficult.

Very full-featured navigation and map software that has a lot of options even in the free version. I was primarily interested in the track recording ability of this app. There it is a little disappointing. It is able to record tracks, and you can set up different profiles for different activities so that you get accurate tracks. Lots of stats on the tracks recorded. But the UI is unnecessarily complicated, and you can only add way points as the track is being recorded, not add way points to an existing track. There is also no ability to find details of specific points on the track (distance from beginning or end, time visited, coordinates, etc.)

I've been using Pro for years and just switched to Locus Maps 4 Gold Subscription. The price is definitely a little high, but I'm impressed so far and I do like to support outdoors app development. The website is nice. Synchronization of tracks is great. I'm still trying to figure out the offline LoRouter. It does seem to work offline, but I'm not sure what areas I have downloaded. That part is a little confusing.
