Never loaded after multiple attempts and waiting

Not impressed. The map does not rotate according to the direction you're facing, making it hard to orientate. The search is useless - I tried searching for "Red Panda" and "Panda" and it returned nothing.

If they are considering saving on paper, they should ensure that the app works properly. Unfortunately, my experience with the app was quite frustrating as it never worked. The app kept loading indefinitely, making it unusable. It's disappointing to rely on a digital tool that fails to serve its purpose, especially when it could be really useful. I hope they improve its functionality in future updates.
