2026-08-02	Ma*****	Great GPS game that inspires one using it to complete their daily steps. However, while I don’t mind premium packages, the yearly, monthly, and lifetime packages only last 30, 7, and 45 days respectively. That is very misleading. Other than that, tapping on achievements or icons do not explain what they do or what they are for. Lastly, picking a country flag or choosing a different fog color shouldn’t all be premium price but that’s only a minor note. Great game, thus far. I love the premise and the motivation to walk and explore. Oh. And if I could suggest a photo upload feature so that people can photograph some of the POI’s. That would be awesome.

2026-07-22	Ga*****	I love roadtrips and love to explore off the beaten path. I have 4 map/tracking apps that run all the time, providing a visual record of where I’ve been. . This app is a good addition. It offers the cleanest look and smoothest tracking of all five apps I now use. It also adds in points of interest that entice you off the usual routes and offer chances to discover what you miss on the Interstates. . But that being said, there are a lot of things that need improvement or features that would make it better. . - POIs. First and foremost, these are a mess. Most seem to be churches and many of them are listed as ‘Unknown’ or are simply wrong. E.G. ‘Pleasant Dale Church’ in Independence, KS hasn’t existed for over 40 years. If you drive down the gravel road you’ll find trees and a piece of concrete that was once the foundation slab. Or you’ll see two POIs across the street from each other - both small churches - but the 100 year old stunning courthouse two blocks away isn’t listed. Update the POIs please. - Next is the journal. This shows things like how many cities and POIs you’ve discovered, but no way to list them (except in one spot where they’re only listed by date). There seems to be no way to see which of the cities you’ve visited, other than to zoom out on the map and scroll. - Portal Mode: You can earn (and buy) portals - which allow you to essentially tap or trace the map and reveal areas you haven’t been to. Great way to complete a map, but makes the leaderboards into a ‘pay to win’ proposition. - Search feature: Doesn’t seem to work. Only four city ‘fragments’ are displayed to show where I might want to explore more - but if I want to see more I have to go to the map and press-hold to select the area - which then shows the borders of that section. . So overall, it’s nice and shows great promise. But the ability to buy your way onto the leaderboards removes the competitive element, the outdated/missing POIs, and the clunky way to review travels dampen the enjoyment quite a bit.

2026-07-16	ne*****	Paid a month subscription to try it out. Definitely like the concept but a couple features I’d like to see if I were to continue the subscription; The map when zooming is slow and there beds to be a “center on me” button - if I zoom out it’s hard to get map to recenter on my location. Would be nice to have like a route guidance - so I can select a land mark and just like Apple Maps, the app gives me a route

2026-06-05	F *****	I purchased the lifetime plan when it was half price on October 30, 2025. I took a short break from the app, and when I logged back in the membership was removed and restore purchases does nothing.

2026-01-01	Ju*****	The app doesn’t allow me to Sign in with Apple. It keeps giving me an error. And I’ve been trying for awhile. I’ve gone in and deleted the Sign in with Apple on my iCloud and tried again. I’ve done it over cellular. Home WiFi, work WiFi. It doesn’t allow me to use it. I am disappointed this gives the option to create an account with Sign in with Apple and yet continuously fails. Due to this. I’m unable to actually use the app.
