A really good app could use a couple more features. or maybe I just don't understand how to search by all counties in a state at once.

It would be a cool if there were less ads and more features. I got an ad simply by tapping the "upgrade" option to remove ads. lame. pro version is not worth $5.99. hopefully it will improve.

Clunky. Aggressive, intrusive ads. Difficult user interface. But it does work and there are surprisingly few of these that actually work. There is a superior mine app that's been available... but for some reason that does not work on my current phone.

Edit to my previous comment.. This app is really cool and helps find cool places. My husband and I love to just explore old mines and ghost towns and this app helped me find a few places we did not find on our own yet. Thanks for such a great app.. so NOT a waste, definitely recommend this app just updated and now I can't get info to load they ALL just say "The requested service is temporarily unavailable. Please try later." Waste

Very cool I thought. . . But as with most greedy greedy developers. . . Full of ads, cost too much . Uninstalled immediately. Free ones out there that are great !

Free version is useless. Disruptive, aggressive ads - none of the many mines in my own area show up on the free version. Shovelware.

This app is wonderful for locating old mines and prospects. I just found it a little bit ago and couldn't be more pleased. It shows very accurate information all things considered, has coordinates and USGS data on EVERY SINGLE MINE. I even upgraded the app and the location tool and commodity filters are very handy. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a great, easy to use, highly helpful app.

I've been trying apps like this for years; THIS is the first REAL one. I'm very impressed. thankyou. I'm going hiking with my new info now.🤘 Update- works great in the field. Both of my targets were right where Mine Locator Map promised, leaving me looking pretty smart.

Just got done re-installing this app after basically forgetting about it and man, what was I thinking because now I realize how fun and educational the subject matter is: Historic mines. Past and present. I live not too far north from Los Angeles, California in Santa Barbara and there was and to a certain degree, still is a lot of mining going on around here (Copper, silver, mercury/quicksilver and diatomaceous earth). Download this app and have some fun. Highly recommended.

Very inaccurate information. I've owned a claim for 3 years and it's not listed, plus there are claims listed around mine that don't even exist! Don't waste your time and money on this app.
