2024-10-02	An*****	I won't buy another license from this provider. It was quite useful. But there are plenty of other options.

2024-05-01	To*****	License restoring fails due to 'expiration' (paid some 30€ on new phones) - the maps can be unlocked a few times, then become invalid, i.e., they do not survive phone changes/resets, when they should simply be coupled to the account. (repeat 2024, won't buy again)

2020-12-04	Ju*****	Very nice maps, ui bit complicated and sometimes bit buggy but overall good experience. Would like an option to have an simple ui with only flags and an on off switch for current location (battery saving). Did not care to much for recording the trips I made.

2020-09-18	Ca*****	Complicated to use, terrible interface and not free. Generally feels old and not up to date in many aspects, as if abandoned by the Devs. To many better and free apps out there.
