## Review summary

Users find DogTracks easy to use for laying and tracking dog tracks with useful features like measuring distances and sharing tracks. However, many report GPS inaccuracies, app crashes, and data import/export problems, especially following updates. The subscription pricing model is also criticized. Overall, the app is promising but would benefit from improved GPS stability, data management, and user support enhancements.

- Allows for laying tracks and measuring total and individual leg lengths.
- Continues running when using other apps like camera and compass.
- Has helpful features like instructions and unit conversion (metric/imperial).
- Allows sharing tracks via email and has good customer support responsiveness.

### Cons

- GPS accuracy issues; maps sometimes show zigzagging or inaccurate tracks.
- The app crashes or shuts down when recording tracks after updates.
- Difficulty importing/exporting tracks and inability to add photos or email saved tracks properly.
- Subscription model criticized as recurring fees rather than one-time purchase.
- Some users experience loss of saved data or inability to access old tracks after phone upgrades.
