I have been using this for several years and find it the best for tracking where you've been. I use it to add locations, camping, hotels, bars, restaurants and other POI as well as tracking walks, drives and other. I can quickly open my map and see places I've visited with my comments which I find highly useful. I found it very worthwhile spending the time to get to know how this app works and it has been invaluable.
Best Travel Companion
Pocket Earth is a great tool for travelling for leisure or work. I love to pre- plan a bike tour and then simply follow it on my phone. It especially makes it easy to traverse built up areas without getting lost. A game changer for bike touring. Happy days 😃😃🙏🙏
Good features- hard to use properly
I love the detail and being able to store all of Australia so I’m ready anywhere. It is a pain to navigate through the features. You need to be in a map to select the home menu. I haven’t read all of the help but enough to see that you need a lot of practice and trial and error to switch between recording tracks , titling, deleting , getting navigation going, hiding previous tracks from your map etc eyc

Absolutely brilliant...the level of detail is astonishing. Beautifully fluid map scrolling, which i love, and the superb features of this app, make this in my view the best of its kind.... Cant praise it enough. Further comments 27/6/17... the more I use this, the more I am amazed! Just fantastic, and beautifully executed. A credit to the developers.Further comments 15/6/20. No other app of this genre can touch it. Absolutely first class and a constant pleasure to use.further comments 21/421. Profoundly competent, 6 stars. 22/4/2021, cannot function without this app, and I just hope it will never disappear from the App Store! Further comments Feb. 2023. Continues to impress. Brilliant.
Highly detailed maps
You never know when you might find yourself without the network so you really should get this now while you can. Might save you in a sticky situation!
Was good, now continues to drop out
This was my “go to” map and GPS program because of the offline capability and tracking.
Unfortunately since the last update (2 months ago Sep 2022) the app continually drops out/shuts down and stops tracking.
😫😩😤😠🤬
This is extremely frustrating for a previously outstanding program! Hence my giving it only 2 stars
Please, please please fix it!
Having an offline route calculator would be good too
Pocket Earth
Great app. Crappy support
GREAT CAMPING TOOL
I found Pocket Earth Pro several years ago and since then I have hundreds and hundreds of Australian camping locations ‘saved’ along with P.O.I (points of interest) that includes bakeries, Bunnings (Australian Hardware Store chain), etc. I attach comment on camp sites and even photos taken from above by Google Earth. To get these photos I do a cut and paste from a relative P.E.Pro camp site of its GPS Coordinates and paste them into Google Earth and then zoom in for a close look at the chosen camp site. I then take a screen shot of the camp site and paste it into P.E.Pro. Another good point is that if you zoom into a town you will see the names of all the roads and streets. I rate Pocket Earth Pro 10/10
Awesome app, works very well
Hi Love this app, have been using it for 2 years now and have had no issues. Uploading GPX files works like a charm and I never felt that it drains phone battery too much.
Good but
Currently won’t geolocate, even though all settings seem on, GPS location, phone data , so forth. Worked before last update. Finally fixed problem, app must have glitched settings on update, change location to ‘always’, and then back to ‘only while using’, now good.....
