Recent reviews

I’ve been using this app since 2011 back when I was in high school. Even though I’ve switched to a combination of WorkOutDoors and Gaia GPS, this app still has a lot of my old trails saved. Every year, I expect it to stop working, but amazingly it still works just as well as in 2011. This is despite not having been updated in 8 years and still using an iOS 6 era interface. I don’t know how the developer wrote such a stable app, but this is clearly the work of a genius.
