I've been using this app since 2020 and have previously paid for no ads. I use the app almost daily to simply write a short name to replace the words "route from" on walks I go on. For example "dog walk" or walkabout Detroit". So now you're changing it so I need another subscription? You should grandfather in those of us that have previously paid for the app including the features it included. Sure it's "only" $2/mo but that's not the point.

I am a premium annual member. I like the simplicity of the application. However, sharing my trip show advertisements even though I am a premium member. If I am paying for premium service then why do my followers have to see ads? This should be removed as that is what you would expect from a premium subscription. So please remove the ads on sharing the location. It scare people to see these ads when all that they want to do is follow my trips.

Continuing to see improvements. What's a bit surprising to see that I now have to pay a monthly or yearly fee get all the features but I can understand that developer has to get paid somehow. (Can someone tell me how to export and save my information in case my phone breaks or I lose it? Seems that there used to be a way to export or update things to the cloud. Am I missing something somewhere?)
