User reviews

Users praise the app for reliable offline map access and useful features for hiking and trail running, highlighting its free functionality and detailed trail maps. However, multiple users report difficulties due to missing instructions, an unintuitive interface, and occasional technical glitches like map loading failures and inaccurate tracking. While effective for offline navigation, the app suffers from usability and precision issues that can impact user experience.

Pros

Supports importing and overlaying tracks for hiking and trail running.
Offers many features for free with an option to support the developer.
Simple and functional interface that fulfills the core needs for backcountry navigation.
Provides access to detailed hiking trail maps that can be used without internet connection.

Cons

Lack of clear instructions or user documentation, making it difficult for new users to understand and operate.
Occasional map display issues such as white tiles or failure to download offline maps.
User interface is somewhat outdated and not very intuitive, leading to confusion over some functions.
Problems with tracking features, including issues with starting/stopping tracks and merging trips unintentionally.
Altitude readings and GPS tracking have accuracy problems, including misaligned tracks and erroneous distances.

Recent reviews

Not perfect and sometimes a bit non-intuitive, but definitely useful, especially for offline use. I use it quite often and still learning it.

I love this app! It is easy to use with both online and offline maps. I do trail running and hiking and by overlaying the tracks on the maps, it actually helps me many times. It also help me to plan and get the idea of the area I'll visit. I highly recommend this app! You can use all of the features for free, but I just purchased it as a support and as a thank.
