Gaia GPS

If you fix the problem with the sync to Apple Watch I would give it a 5 ⭐️

Suddenly requires an account. Unsubscribed from this wonderful app..

I started to use the app this hiking season. Satellite images for Sweden are of quite poor quality (winter images, “clouded” ...) and should be improved. The Swedish topographic map is available in the member’s version.

The app works great. I usually load the route on my watch for through hikes and also keep a backup on of the route on Gaia. If it’s several days, I’ll have POIs and other important things there too. I’ve had no issues and is always been super useful. Totally recommended.

I have really enjoyed using Gaia GPS, on my iPhone. It has great functionality and detailed views on the maps regardless of where I’m hiking. However, it will not work on my Apple Ultra I watch. Reached out for support and was just told “it won’t work on the ultra.” Okay, so be it, but now the price increase to 60.00/year! Too much for an app that’s not going to work as it should and the fact I can’t get answers from support.

When editing/creating certain routes. It is starting to get annoying and inconvenient (for a $90/year app).

After being a long time paid user, support has been completely unhelpful in solving my access problem to Trailforks pro and outside+ which should be included with my Gaia premium subscription and linked to my account. Shame that such a good product was ruined by Outside.

This is a great tool for offline backpackers, hikers and outdoor enthusiasts with an easy to use interface. I used the app and purchased a subscription for the offline features since I was going on a weeklong journey in the Montana Wilderness and wanted to keep track of my location without needing a map and compass. It offered great features on the desktop version that allowed me to make a detailed track to follow that included elevation gain and milage. I put specific locations for campsites and possible water stops along the way. While following the trail, it was surprisingly accurate to where I was and offered several topographic map styles, each varying in download size. I was also able to share the map with my partner before the trip so he'd know what to expect. Overall, seeing the map drawn out put the whole journey into perspective of how deep in the Wilderness we were. I would highly recommend it for anyone in a similar situation.

On latest iOS I kept getting the notification of something using gps in the background. This after force quitting the app, and only giving it permissions to use the gps while running, and even turning off background app refresh. Unacceptable. The app itself is decent, was using as a supplement to TrailsOffroad but not if it won’t stop using the gps ALL THE TIME.
