## Review summary

Users generally like the ease of use and the ability to draw on maps and share results, but repeatedly complain about intrusive ads, lack of editing/saving features, and navigation/drawing limitations that hamper more professional or long-term use.

### Pros

- Easy to use with an intuitive interface.
- Allows drawing on the map / doodling and highlighting points of interest.
- Quickly share drawn maps or routes.
- Useful for content creators and planning routes.
- Generally good performance and usefulness when ads don’t disrupt the experience.

### Cons

- Ads are intrusive and can cover a large portion of the screen.
- No undo/redo and no partial erase; you often have to delete whole drawings.
- No save/load or persistent storage; drawings aren’t saved with the map and multi-save isn’t available.
- Cannot pan/navigate or zoom properly while drawing, making large-area work difficult.
- Limited feature set (no shapes/text, no current location tag, limited editing options) and other navigation/rotation issues.
