The menu/interface seriously needs a dark option.
Why allow only the map so have a dark version when everything else is retina-burningly bright? Honestly really annoyed this was overlooked.

Why allow only the map so have a dark version when everything else is retina-burningly bright? Honestly really annoyed this was overlooked.
I’m using an iPhone 13 Pro and this app is using unreasonable amounts of battery on days that I don’t leave the house and when I’m sleeping. I have to uninstall because it makes my phone die way too fast.
I wasn’t mad about subscribing- I think it’s a worthwhile feature that comes in handy often enough I would pay money for it. But coincidentally, now that I have been paying for a few months (and not really using its features) it’s suddenly broken. It’s useless. It doesn’t work. I thought maybe it’s from the app being closed out, but NOPE. I made sure the app was open yesterday and even today, it says there’s an empty timeline. I live that I’ve now wasted minimum of $15 just to find out this once handy, now expensive app is now unusable. Is this a scam?!
Instead of the promised increase in accuracy, the app is no longer identifying locations/stops at all, and it now consistently identifies walking as driving. Oh, and I never quit out of the app, so it’s running normally. Up until now it had been great. Now it’s mediocre.
Used for a long time. All it does is crash now.
I used this app for 2 years until the subscription was forced. During that time it worked mostly good. For me, the real value of this app was merely having a reliable history of my location. This app is really good at consistently logging your location and not being killed off in background like some other location trackers. Unfortunately the subscription was forced in order to get any functionality, and the entire app is locked behind a subscription page now. I can't imagine subscribing to a log of my own gps location data, so if you're a user like me who doesn't care about any of the ML and life logging features, I guess it's time to look elsewhere. I did read some confusing details that the author wrote in response to a critical review, but I still don't understand the subscription limitations. Unfortunately the app support link just goes to a marketing page that is devoid of support information. The confusion surrounding the subscription seems like it could be easily solved by putting an actual support page up.
Honestly I really want to love this app, but it’s hard to trust with how it failed to load my backup from a couple years ago. The price is reasonable, and anyone who wants to use it the backup feature appears to work at least if it’s recent. Just given me trust issues
Was surprised to see this app now requires a subscription. The monthly fee seems incredibly high considering what is being offered. Edit: after seeing the devs responses below, I can understand why the fee is present.
As of last month I could use the app now I am hit with a pay wall. Free to $140 is too much of a jump. This app crashes when looking at old data and is very slow to look at old after the first time it crashes. Free or even $20 the app would be great. For comparison Office is $150 or 365 subscription for $6.99/month
Arc is the best app to track where you are. I'm simply the kind of person who likes knowing where I am on a specific date and time, and I like correlating with other sources like my photos. Arc is doing a wonderful job recording my location. For frequently visited locations like workplace, Arc can basically auto-confirm the place, whereas for new places I find it worthwhile to sit down for 10 minutes every day just to record them in the app. That said the UI sluggishness of the app has been ongoing for quite a while, and that's a reason for taking away a star. Of course I understand that the app is dealing with many gigabytes of data from years of recorded activity, but the iPhone is a powerful smartphone. There shouldn't be sluggishness on the UI.
