Features & Capabilities

Hot & Thermal Springs

Hot & Thermal Springs is a Chrome extension that catalogs 1,660+ hot springs across the USA. Each location lists temperature, local weather, nearest city, and quick access to Internet search results and Flickr geotag content. The app also supports offline use with a built-in database so you can find springs even without a connection.

Additional features include driving distance and time to each spring, GPX imports for route planning, and the ability to show routes between your location and a map pin. You can share data with the Road Trip Planner app. Monthly data updates rely on user submissions. Note: not all springs are guaranteed to be safely accessible or at a known temperature; please verify with the landowner or operator before visiting.

User Reviews

Hot & Thermal Springs offers a map-driven, country-wide listing that can aid trip planning and discovery of hot springs. Users praise broad coverage and proximity-based navigation. However, the app often lacks essential site details, suffers from outdated or mislocated data, and includes many private-property locations. Experience is hampered by scarce photos/reviews, weak search, and inconsistent information. Improvements could include richer site data, user reviews, photos, accessibility notes, and better data verification.
Pros
  • Map-based listing with proximity information helps locate nearby hot springs.
  • Broad USA coverage offering many springs to explore.
  • Useful for planning road trips and travel to hot springs.
  • Some praise data accuracy and completeness when the data is current.
  • Generally reliable functionality once learned.
Cons
  • Insufficient per-site information; few details, directions, photos, or accessibility notes.
  • Data quality issues: mislocated, outdated, or sites that aren’t hot springs or are on private property.
  • Lack of photos, user reviews, or multimedia; limited verifiable information.
  • Weak search/navigation: hard to search by area, often requires exact names, and current-location starting is limited.
  • Accessibility concerns: many springs are private property or not publicly accessible.

I accidentally double clicked and purchased the app. No photos will load, no directions, nothing. It has every hot spring you could find with a quick Google search, but with less information. 99 cents down the drain into a lazy app developers pocket.

Lots of hot springs of interest. Its hard for me to grasp their locations relative to cities and states.
