## Review summary

Overall, users like the app for park information and planning help, especially the map, but repeatedly criticize its reservation and account features. Top issues include no in-app booking or reservation management (must use the website), frequent login problems and a non-intuitive UX, data not persisting (vehicle/trailer info, passes, or reservations), and broken filters (OHV filter missing; filters don’t work; often limited park results). In short, useful content and maps exist, but critical tasks require the website or desktop access.

### Pros

- Good map
- Helps plan and pick parks easily
- Provides general park information (maps and details)

### Cons

- Cannot book or manage reservations in-app; redirects to website
- Poor UX/navigation; app feels like a shell with little content
- Does not persist user data (vehicle/trailer info, passes) or reservations
- Login/account access problems; sign-in via app not available; captcha issues
- Filters/search broken (OHV filter missing; filters don’t work; often limited park results)
