## GPS Reviews in United States

### *---- "Confused"
I like the app.  Works as described, but I do wonder why a straight GPS app needs full internet access to function...  One thing:  can the developer or anyone guess as to why the phone screen goes black when attempting to put it into a waterproof case. Happens only with this app...

No response from the developer on anything.   That’s the reason for the rating.
-- mr sharkbait, 2018-04-12

### *---- "Don't get it"
Might tell you where you are but does not tell you how to get where you're going, unbelievable this po crap is even listed with gps apps
-- PhilandRuthie, 2017-10-14

### ***** "Simple but great"
I love this app. The screen is easy to read and gives you the vital gps and altitude information.   KISS keep it simple stupid and they did a great job.
-- JC nickname, 2015-01-18

### *---- "Should have listened..."
Two of three "maps" are blank (unavailable?). The rest works as displayed. Hey, it's a PoS, but it was only $.99, and I SHOULD have heeded the bad reviews.
-- Klotho, 2012-11-10

### *---- "Mrs"
Don't get it. I want my money back.
-- Paige2753, 2012-06-17

### ***-- "App works fine, but could use some updates"
This app has a few quirks (such as OpenCycle maps no longer loading, but there are alternatives in the app) and could use an update for things like retina graphics and more recent SDK technologies.  But it largely works as advertised and has functional features and settings.
-- genX919, 2012-06-15

### *---- "King"
Piece of junk, ad shows a nice graphic however actual display is plain txt. MPH does not work so slow and inaccurate.
-- Grimace777, 2012-06-04

### *---- "Gps"
A big joke, nothing works on this app, wish I had my money back.
-- Dogmans, 2012-05-22

### *---- "GPS"
Fake! Fake!! Fake!!!  DON'T buy this app, it doesn't even work!!!!
-- YANG$UN4, 2012-04-07

### *---- "Help!!!"
It won't work to find your location. I walked down the street and my location  didn't change at all! Don't buy it!
-- Hrs-crzy, 2012-01-19

### *---- "Gps"
Not a bonafide gps buyer beware
-- For slayer, 2011-11-26

### *---- "Doesnt work!"
Don't waste your money.
-- Cholthe22, 2011-10-16

### *---- "Not what I expected"
I read the info and thought this app allowed you to get a signal to use gps on your phone, apparently not!
-- Tucci145, 2011-10-08

### ***** "Mr"
I am very happy with this app.  I always read negative reviews before positive ones when I buy something to compare the complaints against the praises.  I agree this is not a direction finder as much as a historian - I use it to keep track of my walks and give me a record at the end.

If I could suggest one improvement it would be to have a trail line follow me on the map, but that's a minor thing.  Fun app!
-- iHike2, 2011-09-02

### *---- "Not so bad, but..."
The simplicity of this appealing, but the lack of a tracking function on the map is disappointing.
-- Need good exif data, 2011-08-26

### *---- "Scam scam sc"
This is a completely useless application that isn't a "GPS" just like all other Americans they don't care about anyone but them self they just want money. They don't care If you find your way.
-- Scamsss, 2011-08-24

### ***** "Exactly as described."
This app is not to show maps or give directions. It is to give coordinates, elevation etc. and does it well.
-- aqq123, 2011-08-03

### *---- "Scam"
Scam!!!!!!
-- ZachBi, 2011-08-01

### *---- "Simply doesn't work"
Coordinates aren't close, elevation will show + or - 50'.  The map is horrible.  Find another app.
-- RW71, 2011-07-27

### ***** "Works Exactly As Advertised"
I was looking for an app that would provide me with an aggregate of the GPS data, especially altitude (which Compass doesn't show).  This gives exactly that, and a little bit more. 

Only reason I can see for reviewers giving this a 1-star rating is consumer confusion, as GPS has become a generic term associated with software that provides directions.
