## GPS Kit Reviews in Australia

### **--- "GPS kit"
Keep shutting down all the time
-- Frog 121, 2024-09-26

### *---- "Disappoint"
This application is a complete disaster. I traveled for 5 hours and could not get my speed or location accurately. And I paid 15 dollars, don't trust it
-- Samilyonn, 2023-11-17

### ***** "Cultural Clearance on Country"
Thanks for making life easier for Tradition Owners to mark and follow up on GPS points that indicate cultural significance.

We return to do more expert investigations on the GPS points.

Djungan People

### ***-- "App good but zero support"
I find the app pretty good but there is zero support, and the developer does not even maintain a website, so probably has gone out of business.  How do you create a Set?   Beats me and there is no info or person to offer advice.
-- Kapt Kelly, 2022-03-24

### ***** "GPS Kit -simply the best GPS"
I have used many non-differential GPS over the years, Garmin and many others, and iphone and GPS Kit is easier, intuitive, and has more features like photo waypoints. Simply the best phone based GPS.
-- Aviddd, 2022-03-20

### ***** "Easily The Best GPS App"
I have been using this for many years. 
It does what it says on the tin, turns your phone into a fully featured GPS.
And does it better than most expensive GPS's for a fraction of the price!
-- Gove Garden Gnome, 2021-12-28

### ***** "Hey Dev!"
Ever since the iPhone 3 this app has been for go to GPS utility, now in the era of iPhone 12 I’m wondering if there any plans for some basic updates? App is still functional which is awesome, was hoping maybe a UI update to play nice with modern screen size and & resolution.
-- Zed6148, 2021-03-29

### ***** "Great gps"
Very spot on and never drops out. Needs a update on current google earth maps but apart from that it is excellent.
-- sxs711, 2020-10-13

### *---- "Disappointing"
In the age of freemium and subscriptions, it was nice to see an app that only costs a one time fee. Once I opened it however, it was clear to me from the very start that I had made a great mistake in purchasing this product.

This app lacks most of the functionalities that you would come to expect from such a piece of software:

-Waypoints created will disappear from the map on the following day.
-You pretty much need a PhD to import and export data.
-Lacks basic features and advertises an expensive ($150 AUD) app in order to get them.
-Constant error messages at startup.
-Does not support wider screen size of iPhone XS Max.

In my opinion, this app is a half baked excuse for a piece of such software and really needs a lot of work from the developer in order to get it to an acceptable standard.
-- general_tbag, 2019-06-30

### **--- "Unreliable"
I’ll sit at home and mark out multiple locations I want to go out in the bush while I have internet. Then when I get out there and open the map the screen is just squares and no way points. Have marked out trips in internet coverage and then gone to update the trip the next day never leaving internet coverage and the whole map has been erased of waypoints. Good concept but extremely unreliable app.
-- jfreili, 2018-08-24

### ***** "Love this App"
I use GPS Kit for work in outback Australia all the time. I can upload tracks and places I need to visit from GIS and I spend a fraction of the time I used to finding my way around. And the Google Earth background imagery is very helpful as well. Thoroughly recommended and no issues under IOS 11 as yet!
-- rnrsanders, 2017-09-28

### **--- "What's happening with the updates"
What's happening with the developer of this app? No updates in over a year and app won't work properly in IOS10
-- Another one unable to purchase, 2017-08-15

### **--- "don't buy it - Beware this app is not supported"
A lesson learnt here that you should thoroughly read reviews before you purchase and app. It could be good but it no longer has tech support and it is buggy - some map url links no longer work. If the developers have abandoned it then it is money down the drain as device upgrades will only make things less compatible for this app. Shame because it has potential.
-- PureLard, 2017-02-23

### ***** "Fantastic app"
Use this app all the time for when I'm working in the bush. The only issue I have sometimes is when I'm downloading maps to my offline cache it freezes and I can't restart it. Be good to get more guidance on this.
-- Scuba78steve, 2016-07-21

### ***** "HR Max"
Top app, use at work all the time, works very good off line, 😎
-- HR Max, 2016-04-15

### **--- "Past its prime"
As precious reviewers have stated, hasn't been updated and is broken. A lot to pay for something that no longer works properly!
-- Gunnerviii@, 2016-04-14

### ***** "VERY Impressed"
Great app, had it for years, only app that I have found that makes it easy to record multiple tracks at different times in an area- then view them all at once while recording more: PERFECT for mapping hidden enduro singletrack, then linking it all up into an EPIC loop!  Have used it kayaking, sailing a Hobiecat, MTB, multi-day walking trips, canyoning etc etc. Better than another $150 Australian nav app I won't name.
-- Jezupatree, 2016-02-29

### *---- "Used to be great"
Used to be one of the best gps apps for iOS - however hasn't been updated for nearly two years and doesn't play nicely with new iOS versions. Lots of bugs and crashes.
-- chid.g, 2015-11-28

### *---- "Unintuitive"
It's unclear how ( or whether) you can preload a map without clumsy pinching over an area. Not possible to pinpoint by GPS? Overall unintuitive and not good for planning a hike in a remote area.
-- Dan George2, 2014-10-13

### ****- "Good app with offline support"
Can pre-download maps for offline use, closest thing you can get to orux maps on ios. Best off-road gps on ios
-- Bremnutso, 2014-02-24
