I have been using this app since 2013. It was my first mobile GIS app. Over time, I venture onto the other side of fence with virtually every other available mobile GIS app. Here’s what’s unique about GIS Kit: • Caches ortho-photo maps with a great number of choices • Allows easy customization for a particular project • You can have a number of projects, each remaining uniquely separate • Very reasonable cost, nothing’s hidden; you get the base program with all the bells and whistles for under $100 • I have not found an app anywhere, but here, that EXPORTS Shape files! (Pro version) Well worth the extra $$ if you need that functionality. Although there was a lag in updating this app and it tended to crash (frustrating), it was STILL worth the hassle! Not the team is back to raising the bar. They recently stabilized the crashing issue and are working on a major upgrade. Hands down, this is the best mobile GIS app available.

This program is a scam, shuts down when u try and change back ground and no way to contact tech support for help or problem solving, stay away!

This App has its issues and could be much better. The best GIS App on the market is WolfGIS. Used it for 3 years with no issues.
