Seems to load ok on my phone, but not my iPad. Whenever I try downloading any of the tours, I just get an “Error downloading…” message. Thought it might be better on the larger screen (given how many other reviewers complained about the readability), but apparently not… -- Mac_user_12345, 2025-07-08 ### ***-- "Can’t read the text" Please change the colour of the text. I can’t read it on my iPhone. But the idea for the app is excellent!! -- AUSSKY, 2025-04-09 ### ***-- "Can be hard to read" After listening to d see one of the podcasts thought I would down load this. Have to agree with others the back ground does make it a little difficult to read. Info is interesting, thanks for putting it together -- Biggles36, 2023-11-11 ### *---- "Yea Na" Can’t read the text -- rooshoota, 2023-01-30 ### **--- "Change the background picture as unusable" As per other comments great idea but unusable with photo behind as can’t read the text - pls change -- sjames8971, 2023-01-07 ### **--- "Can’t read" The writing is the same colour as the background, totally useless -- adginni, 2022-12-23 ### *---- "Fix the screen" Cannot read the text, the App is useless until you fix the colouring. -- My fourth speaker, 2022-12-16 ### **--- "Can’t read the text" Great idea but not usable on my iPhone. Please get rid of the ever present background picture (the vehicle driving on the dirt road) - It seems that because of that, the text overlay fades into the picture. -- wldaustralia, 2022-11-27 ### **--- "Can’t read it" Great looking app but you can’t read it as the colours don’t work together. Please fix this up. -- kazza bear, 2022-10-31 ### **--- "Cannot read the text" The contrast of the text to picture make the text unreadable. -- Sozza69, 2022-10-28 [View all Outback Way reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Outback Way Discovered Keywords - outback way ## Apps Similar to Outback Way - [ExplorOz Traveller](https://apptail.io/app/exploroz-traveller-dqj/australia) - [Wheatbelt Way](https://apptail.io/app/wheatbelt-way-UOm/australia) - [Australian Visitor Centres](https://apptail.io/app/australian-visitor-centres-AsA/australia) - [Road Report NT](https://apptail.io/app/road-report-nt-IOpb/australia) - [Warlu Way—Travel Safe Pilbara](https://apptail.io/app/warlu-way-travel-safe-pilbara-iKsc/australia) - [Golden Quest Discovery Trail](https://apptail.io/app/golden-quest-discovery-trail-xCRc/australia) - [Everythere](https://apptail.io/app/everythere-mKmd/australia) - [Murchison GeoRegion](https://apptail.io/app/murchison-georegion-rKmd/australia) - [Campedia](https://apptail.io/app/campedia-oGXh/australia) - [Explore Exmouth](https://apptail.io/app/explore-exmouth-WjVl/australia) ## Outback Way Available In - [Australia](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/australia) - [Argentina](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/argentina) - [Azerbaijan](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/azerbaijan) - [Bulgaria](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/bulgaria) - [Bahrain](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/bahrain) - [Brazil](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/brazil) - [Belarus](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/belarus) - [Canada](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/canada) - [Chile](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/chile) - [China](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/china) - [Denmark](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/denmark) - [Dominican Republic](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/dominican-republic) - [Ecuador](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/ecuador) - [Egypt](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/egypt) - [Spain](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/spain) - [France](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/france) - [United Kingdom](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/united-kingdom) - [Hong Kong SAR China](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/hong-kong) - [Ireland](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/ireland) - [Israel](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/israel) - [South Africa](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/south-africa) - [United Arab Emirates](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/united-arab-emirates) - [Japan](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/japan) - [Kuwait](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/kuwait) - [Mexico](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/mexico) - [New Zealand](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/new-zealand) - [Peru](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/peru) - [Philippines](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/philippines) - [Pakistan](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/pakistan) - [Russia](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/russia) - [Sweden](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/sweden) - [Türkiye](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/turkey) - [Taiwan](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/taiwan) - [United States](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/united-states) - [Uzbekistan](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/uzbekistan) - [Jordan](https://apptail.io/app/outback-way-BNpb/jordan) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
