Customer Reviews
Still needs some work
Some fixes were taken care of. Much more mileages has been added In that I was missing, but now the navigation is screwed up. I live in the smokies, so when I brought the app up and started the navigation, it popped up that I was somewhere in Yellowstone. Never could get it cleared out.
Great
Personally, this is the best Parks app I have found.
Update: As others have stated there is persistent crashing issues that need to be addressed. Also for one reason or another the parks I download continue to reset themselves where I must repeat the process over and over again. C'mon people your a established co. do the right thing and tend to these problems that your customers are having, instead of ignoring everyone. You will benefit in the long run.
GPS Is Broken
I am in Yosemite NP right now, and this app constantly flips my location between here and some random place in Yellowstone NP. I also have NG's Trail Maps app which shows my correct location solidly, so I don't think it's the iPhone gps that is the problem. 2 stars instead of one for great maps. Hope they fix this app.
