◆ PLEASE NOTE ◆
• Hikingbook uses GPS tracking in background when the tracking function is enabled. Continuous use of GPS in background may cause battery drain and decrease battery life.
• While GPS can improve safety in outdoor activities, it should be noted that GPS cannot wholly replace other traditional navigation tools such as compass and maps. In addition, positioning errors or no-signal situations may arise depending on vegetation, topography, and weather condition. Prior knowledge of GPS and its limitations is strongly advised.

Ratings and reviews

It keeps asking me for location allowed all the time. Even I said no. I don't want it to be tracking my location all the time.

This app gets a 1 star just for privacy access. the app is constantly requesting access to data already stated NO too. becareful with this app.

Unusable for a new user. The app forces you to enable GPS ALL THE TIME, why not only while using the app? I verified the email but the app still promts the error "please verify email". Without an account you can basically do nothing. The app prompts "Do you want to download the map?" and then "sorry you have to create an account". Why you ask in the first place??!
