| 2024-01-15 |  | | Do not rely on this. Property lines are off by several feet. If you depend on this it could cost you depending on how you use it. It might be okay to get a basic idea but again, its off by several feet |
| 2023-11-29 |  | | I have been doing mapping for several decades now. This is by far the greastest little app I have added to my toolbelt in a long time. Took a bit of time to figure out the processes, a manual to view offline would have been helpful. Looking forward to other upgrades and integrations. |
| 2023-10-01 |  | | Good apps. Easy to use. Would the developer look into making it easier to change layers of same object? Thx. |
| 2023-09-23 |  | | The app has big potential. A little bit fighting with UI and understanding all intended features. I would like to utilize two really simple user cases: 1. I am on unknown site and I would like to get and store precise location (with averaging feature and the best with NTRIP server), 2. I would like to drive a stake into the ground for a specific known coordinate (by compass feature with DGPS precision). |
| 2023-04-24 |  | | Great update, but there is some issues because not all phone has access to default categories in this new update, i guess because using android 13, and my gps on this app is kinda error because i already put my kmz on it but it is still really far on my display, is there any way to fix this issue? |
| 2023-04-06 |  | | This app is perfect and stable enough. If I may, I request these features: 1. showing filtered features on map. 2. Enhanced filtering like able to filter empty or null attribute. Filtered by multiple attributes. And negative filtering. Good work!! |
| 2023-03-22 |  | | One of the best application for small firms and GIS students or enthusiasts, what you get for the price is outstanding and stability is on a level of the huge GIS software creators like ESRI, it only misses some lil simple things that would make it the best out there, and I am sure the creators are working on that and we would have them in the near future. Good job and keep it up!! |
| 2022-04-24 |  | | i think this app is the most flexible app to create a project, i think it would be perfect if have google map as an option for a basic map |
| 2022-03-23 |  | | Very good GIS app.. Why the latest version can not add layer using shp file from local storage? the problem is locus GIS can't read shp in local storage. |
| 2021-09-02 |  | | I use it for my stake-out surveys, very reliable. Also very flexible with shapefiles in different CRS. Still waiting for the update on accuracy filter tho. |
