  • Incredibly accurate on AT

    By Raven, Heather + Scatter
    Phenomenal app. Saved me from making wrong turns because even using just GPS (on airplane mode), it indicates which way you’re facing and you can confidently head in the right direction. Even when the trail is confusing (rare on the AT but can happen), you can go far without knowing you’re off course. Also the comments are using for knowing any situations at nearby shelters - or for seeing who found your sunglasses the day after you lost them. ; ) Great great app. So cool to see altitude at your fingertips as well (although there are days when you don’t want to look!).

  • Decent. Not enough trails. And most info is user submitted, trails/sections cost too much.

    It’s helpful when you need it. However, I feel that the price of trails and sections is steep considering most of the helpful information is user submitted. We basically pay for an app that we update. There are not enough trails available for me to want to subscribe to the pro version.

  • No more comments

    Nobody posts updates anymore or Far Out doesn’t allow them. In either case, not having real time posts from hikers is a significant problem with this app

  • Full of Errors, can purchase but can view maps

    Both my wife and I were able to purchase and were charged for a map but we were never able to open the map. We are using an iPhone 12 and iPhone 14. The error message we got ‘process app store recipe’

  • Not letting me use the features

    By Michael_Ell
    I’m continually getting an error that says Invalid Function: “processAppStoreReceipt.” Doesn’t matter which trail/area, or that I’ve logged out and back in and redownloaded the app. Simply wonderful when I want to use the app and the maps it provides but I can’t get access to anything.

  • Mostly wonderful, but filters don’t work

    The app is very well thought out, with views for maps/elevation/lists and user comments for the various waypoints. That is especially helpful for water flow and condition. Also the offline functionality and toggle for GPS is super at conserving battery life. But the filter buttons in list view don’t work, where the user is supposed to be able filter and only see for example, water sources. There are also numerous tent sites in Shenandoah NP but none are shown in the app; only the official shelters appear. It would be good for users to be able to add waypoints like additional tent sites that other users could benefit from.

  • Not good

  • Can’t even create an account

    Got stuck at the very first step when trying to create an account with a “normalize for key is not defined” error, whatever that means… Hardly inspires confidence

  • Was indispensable for my JMT NOBO

    By L!hk!n
    I bought this app on the advice of a friend, as I was thru hiking the JMT NOBO from Cottonwood Pass to Yosemite (239 miles, including the 29 miles from CP to the summit of Mt. Whitney). I really didn’t think I would use this app much, but it became indispensable within the first two days. The JMT module is really detailed and was instrumental in planning my day and water refills. The comments from other hikers were really helpful (do make sure to update the comments whenever you are connected to the internet). I really can’t say enough good things about this app. It was definitely money well spent and it played a big part in my successful completion of the JMT. Highly recommended!

  • Screen locking up / freezing since recent update

    By WVHikingGranny
    Having Lock-ups every time I use the app. It will scroll initially but as soon as I click on ANYTHING it locks. Just started about 5 days ago. I’ve been using this for a few years with no issues. I’m in the middle of a PCT thru-hike!! Yes, I have restarted my phone & the app repeatedly.
