Don’t waste your time with this app. Downloading doesn’t work - tried more than one park several times and it consistently got hung up at 40%. Info on what to see is alphabetical instead of geographic or by type of feature. Predictions for geyser eruptions are not as up to date as the info on the NPS website.
Have tried to down app on iPad and iPhone and restart, delete app and re-download and nothing works. Stuck at 40%
I found the app and started exploring and when I went to download the information for Yellowstone it only got to 41% and froze. It won’t continue on from there. The information I skimmed thru seemed thorough and great, wish it would download
App looks full of promise. But when I went to do download for Shenandoah NP the progress bar stuck at 40% and stayed there, fairly swiftly gobbling up the iPhone’s battery and heating up the phone, even though the phone was concurrently charging on the regulation Apple magnetic charger. Tried restarting the app and the download process to come to a similar outcome of the download getting stuck at 40 percent. The first 40 percent downloaded quite promptly.
Love the app in that it has SO much information available in what to do and see in the parks, however the map element of the app could be greatly improved. For example, it would be so much more useful if it identified what he pins are instead of having to tap on the pin to be told what it represents. Also, the user experience would be much smoother is there was a filter for “Favorites” so you can see your chosen points of interest on the road map.
Overall a great idea but needs lots of polish to make me trust it, dates/hours can’t be relied on. I was expecting it to be so much better, maybe in time but at the moment frustrating.
