★★★★★ "doesn't let you use the app without creating an account/signing in with Google crashes on map view content locked behind premium subscription. (paying ~$4 a month for content that is sourced from user submissions and Google maps)" - Ella Rodgers

★★★★★ "great idea poorly designed, glitchy, crashes when I try to open some locations, won't let me select and view green drops on map so there's no point in having it because I can't view anything near my location. I could only open some location…" - monique evans

doesn't let you use the app without creating an account/signing in with Google crashes on map view content locked behind premium subscription. (paying ~$4 a month for content that is sourced from user submissions and Google maps)
When clicking on the map, I continuously get the error message that the app has a bug - has happened for 6 months with no fix. Not going to pay and subscribe for bugs.
opening map crashes the app
crashes everytime i open the map
Pay to view
I would give this less stars if I could. Seriously unhelpful. Downloaded the app looking for new destinations to travel, can't access anything without paying for premium.... absolutely disgraceful.
Useless without a paid account
Very sad that I payed a yearly subscription and it doesn't recognise it because the new subscription is more expensive that what you payed... At least honour what I have payed and charge me the new price when I need to renew it...
Implies that it's v is a free app but you see nothing worthwhile unless you pay. Much better apps available for less
Anything decent is premium. Wouldn't bother with this app.
Way too costly, no way it's worth the dollars
Have to pay to use. Looks like most data is input by users and other users have to pay to see it
Requires an account.
Everything is locked behind a pay wall. I am not subscribing for a few things I can find on google
Seriously, how do you as a business, justify people paying for this information? Your mums are your dads.
No details unless U pay
Pay to play. Not worth it.
App is useless unless you pay for it. No options to trial before using the app no one's ever heard of.
Bad
Pointless unless you WANT to spend money - everything behind a paywall. Looks to rely on user sourced info like Wikicamps but YOU pay for the private of giving them free days. There also don't seem to be that many places anyway. Get onto your local road service app to see local drives (NRMA etc.) Uninstalled minutes after installed. Total ripoff
Very disappointing cash grab
Have to pay just for some common knowledge. I reckon just google cool place's in the area and you'll get a better response than this app.
Pay to use
Just a scam
On all the descriptions it says that it is free and then you can pay to upgrade for more locations and features but it is a lie, I downloaded it and you don't get any locations without paying, there's nothing wrong with that but it would be nice if they actually said that instead of pretending you can use it for free but with less choice. Basically, it could be good but the description is a complete lie and you can only access the profile page and the subscription page without paying.
All features locked behind a pay wall. Unusable.
Absolutely the rubbish waste of time
Crashes often, no way to get help. I subscribed and couldn't use my subscription on another device. Places and info on the app is misleading and inaccurate. Recommend just pausing their insta reels to find out locations.
Incorrect advertisement. Information is not free. Nlminimal features of app available without payment.
App is just a huge cash grab, just don't bother nearly everything is behind a pay wall
Would be good if it didn't crash constantly
Very expensive subscription , $1.50/week . Crashes a lot. Just a money grab from the creator. Google maps is better.
Doesn't even let you make an account to try logging in
Couldn't get past the sign up screen. Had perfect internet to.
Pay or can't see anything. Not worth to install
Don't waste your time. Terrible app first you have to sign up then you have to pay for a subscription, I got more information just visiting the information centre throughout the towns.
Horrible subscription experience
Stupid wants monthly sub for free info
Can't access almost any of the apps features without paying a pretty exorbitant subscription charge ($1.50 a week). Great idea for an app. Shame it's run by someone who just wants to rob their users blind.
Why I need to pay to see the locations???
Doesn't load map or locations
None of the functions work. Glitchy app constantly requesting subscription
Not even a 7 day trial to see what it can do. Won't let you look at anything unless you pay up straight away.
Jumped on to see if worthwhile. It's not. If you're wanting to see the local gems support small & local and go to your information centre (yellow & blue "i" ) or get a well researched book!
too many bugs
No wonder it's only got 2.7 stars, maybe if you charged advertisers instead of trying to charge people to use the app. Why would people pay for information they can get for free
Gay as app
Pay to unlock "exclusive locations" just make it free for heavens sake
Garbage app. Greedy people trying to profit from "secret" hikes. Rude. App doesn't even work anyway.
Not many secret locations at all.
