Pictures are years old
I cannot use this app as the pictures are years old and do not reflect an open field
I give up
This app asked me to sign in. I used google to do so. Appeared that it accepted the sign in. But, it would not leave the sign in request page. I’ll find another app that works.
Poor customer service
Customer service is a joke. Waste of time. If we didn’t have so many properties loaded in this system already, we would drop it. We probably still will find something better.
Suddenly stopped letting me make a circle
I was doing fine making circles that suddenly stopped letting me make a circle with no explanation. Also, you can only do one area on the map. I want to do two or three areas on the map. You have to do separate maps.
Fails
Will not load maps
A joke

Shady
NO FREE TRIAL. Avoid at all cost
Scam app
This is a scam app. Don't trust the reviewers and don't trust the cancellation. It charges you anyway. I couldn't even use it to measure my yard because the GPS points kept appearing in the middle of neighboring yards. It's simply trash for that purpose. I cancelled the trial within an hour and got charged anyway.
Lost data
Since the last update, I have lost a majority of my saved measurements. I spent a lot of time measuring and this is very frustrating.
Why take away features?
Previously you were able to use the distance tool and in the top left it would give you the total distance of all the lines. It doesn’t do that now and only shows the distance of the first line created. Disappointed
Not working well
It is glitched on it so I can’t see the total distance if I select more then one point
Cannot import images
GPS only. No images
Not free and not showing the price until you sign up
You need to sign up then you get the subscription options…
Farmer
Hard to use, poor instructions, cannot figure out how to undo an accidental point on the map lines
Was a free app for years, now it not
Was a free app for years, now it’s not and I refuse to pay for a subscription. Deleted.
Need feet not metric. How do I change from metric to feet thx
Feet not metric
Poor App
Hope to get money back. Absolutely not user friendly!!
And …?
I finally got in; but now if I want to calculate anything, I need to go out and mark my points with this app, solly challie.
The interface seems a slight ..

It does not measure
No
Subscription? Really?!
Have to give an email and subscribe to use. I’ll gladly pay the developer a few bucks up front to use, but I’m not subscribing or giving personal data for these features. You don’t need my personal info or recurring $$.
Map not displaying
Map is not displaying. Only some white screen
Not user friendly
Too hard to figure out
Elk- horn
Why can’t I figure out the acreage or how do I figure out acreage how many acres?
Not accurate
App showed me to be out in a roadway. I was 40-50 from the roadway
GLITCH??
I downloaded this app to measure the area of spills for my job. Once I downloaded the app I went into the app created an account and paid for the $70 a year plan it said thank you for subscribing. Your subscription is active. I also checked in my iCloud and confirmed that the subscription has been paid for and is active yet It still says on the app that I’m not subscribed. my coworker has the same app and has logged in the same way and it shows on his account that he is a premium account member and he did the same thing that I did. I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled and log back in and still nothing. I’ve sent messages to the contact us section and nothing. There is no option to call, so the only thing left is to wait for hopefully someone to message me back or for the app to start working if this doesn’t happen within the next day or so, I will be deleting the app and unsubscribing.
Not free
Was free at one time now want 80 dollars a year it was a great app at one time I only need it about one time a year
Doesn’t work.
App is glitchy and NOT worth your time. Tried several times to do simple measurements on different devices and it just doesn’t work.
Terrible
When I tried to register it would tell me that I have the wrong username and password. When I try to recover my password it would tell me there is no email listed. When I try to re-enter a new account it would tell me my account already exists. Ways to 20 minutes. Piece of crap.
Garbage
Used to be good but will uninstall now. I’m not going to create an account to use this app.
Highly inacurate
On iPhone with WiFi and cellular enabled. The coordinates are all over the place. Extremely bug, app freezes often on several screens. I'd be happy to pay good money for an app like this that works but this app is a joke.
App is now CRAP
Was a great app until they wanted you to create an account , which doesn’t work. Good-bye
Search bar limited
Search bar doesn’t pull addresses based on street names. Can search entire town and city names, but will not recognize street addresses within the towns and cities. Useless really
Inability to cancel subscription
This app was useful for what I needed it for, but I had to use the Premium subscription feature and am now unable to cancel it. I have been charged $15 for two months while trying to reach the company using their one ‘Contact Us’ feature, with no results. I do not recommend this app due to this poor customer service and inability to control your membership status.
Ugh no.
Standing here in one place and the dot is jumping allllll over the place. No possible way that can be accurate. I don’t need this I just need something to measure an area of a house. I don’t think you need a sketchy satellite connection for that.
Ruffinpup
Tried to buy premium to save my measurements but it would not load.
Would be really helpful is the app worked.

GPS field app
Not very useful in free mode every screen wants you to sign in to Facebook or upgrade to premium measurements were not accurate point to point instead added the distance of the path taken between points
No good as advertised free

Impossible to unsubscribe
Impossible to unsubscribe from premium version. Definitely do not download.
Costs too much.
This was a great app before they updated it and started charging for it. Not worth what they charge..
Never got it to work
I’ve downloaded this app twice and have yet to get it to measure a single straight line. It’s not intuitive and there is no tutorial or instructions. Developers FB page offers nothing. I’ll make one more run at finding help on the internet before moving on to find something that works.
Dead app
This app used to work great, now it will only pull GPS and will not allow you to search anything. Predictive text for addresses is gone and even if you put in the full address it will pull nothing. I have sent several messages to the developers with no response. This is a dead app and should be removed from the store.
Don’t waste your money!
Terrible customer service and plenty of free apps instead of paying for this one waste of money
Unit of measure doesn’t not change.
Area measurement will not change from HA. used to be my go to for measurements but now it’s useless.
Totally changed
Why does my previous measurement disappear when starting a new measurement?
Makes the app almost useless.

Needs instructions
I was able to do things on my phone and can share files for group project but group can’t edit even with the app. Features don’t look the same on android as on my Apple. Don’t see how to select gps mode and add/edit points on the android, etc. Seems to work okay for one person on apple, but not to collaborate on a project.
How to use
It would be nice if someone could make a decent tutorial on how to use the app.
The only help I found was by idiots with no info on how to actually use.

Can’t search an address
Can’t search an address. Doesn’t zoom in enough.
Couldn’t get results
Are there instructions somewhere? Very expensive for the pro version.
Good just have not figured it out not cut and dry easy to understand needs simple explanation icons
I will keep trying to use then adjust review
Set point 1, then set point 2, show distance between.
It should be that straight forward however, it’s not.
Review
Worked great. Now it just shuts off, after opening
