iWalk Cornwall

Downloaded the app and paid for a walk that sounded a pleasant six mile circuit. Only on paying did it become apparent that well over half the walk was on narrow roads. A little more honesty in the route descriptions would go a long way. Waxing lyrical about views and beaches is all well and good, but half the time you're trudging along tarmac looming at embankment. One to avoid.

Pay individually for walks? 🤣🤡 Instant uninstall. In response to the developer, the rough tor-brown willy walk has been the same for decades, it doesn't need constant updates and checking and constant money spent on an app. It's a well travelled route through a moor. It's the same with many of these walks. They are public knowledge, and can be found freely online. This app is just a fancy map not a personal Sherpa.

Expensive road walks... People complaining 2 years ago that £1.49 was expensive now it's £3 a map! But I thought the information given for accessability, livestock, cliffs, roads etc. might be worth the cost as I am looking for new places to walk my offlead dogs. But 99% include roads! It seems most of the walks include roads just to make the walk longer or circular. But there are many dog friendly walks in Cornwall which are not on here like Cardinham woods trails because a road has been added.

Didn't download any maps., kept saying abort

I bought a map and it didn't download, but took my money.

Drains battery very quickly and doesn't update distance or time remaining. The developer commented that the problems are caused by GPS problems with my Xiaomi phone and provided a link. Not true. GPS works fine and the map in the app updates accurately (one of its best features). As I wrote, the displayed figures do not update (they remain at zero).
