User reviews
I love the organizational features of this app. It does a very good job at categorizing all of my locations as well as visualizing everything. My two critiques about this app is (1) it's unforgiving if you choose th wrong folder to pin something under. There's a button to change the folder at the top of the already placed point but it didn't work at all for me and (2) I wish we could input addresses instead of manually finding coordinates on the map

I wish there was an easier way to use the map I need for one day and copy it for another day. Also wish there was a way to send map to people who dont have the app downloaded and still be able to see zoome in and see street names. Maybe just me being picky. Still very functional, exactly what I need and not hard to transfer map to IPhone

Super flexible and feature rich mapping application. I use this to design disc golf courses and it works very well. I can draft and plot my map on my phone, then export to KMZ to finish and refine on the computer. The "navigate to" feature is super helpful to show me current distance to a pin I had just placed. Works great for course design
