Keeps wanting more money

pistazie on

I’m sure i paid for features some time ago , now the features are blocked and they want more money. Stop the extortion! Grrr.

Important Features Hidden Behind Paywall

Mar9812 on

The app has removed features that were previously available in the base app, and restricted them to use behind a $7.99 AFTER already purchasing the base app for $0.99. Being unable to stamp or add project name/information to the photo without the in-app purchase reduces the usefulness of the app to near-zero. DO NOT use this app if photo context is important to you or your work.

Having trouble to send pictures from sites to drop box and also can not directly print pictures from app. Also would be nice to have this app associated with iMac.

Micro Transactions & Loss of Pictures

JDiesel101 on

Paid for the app around a year ago and when it wasn’t crashing and losing all my labeled photos it worked quite well. My biggest complaint is how I’m required to pay for features I was previously allowed access to. Either have a free app with upgrading packages or have a paid app where ALL features are included. Tsk Tsk don’t be greedy. Won’t be using anymore.

Great app but

Yohannesburg on

Lately it’s been showing very inaccurate bearing information. I’m using a iPhone 5S and compass is accurate with North but even after deleting app the redownloading, bearing is off. Showing south when it should show east.

bugs.

Say_what7777 on

please upgrade this app , it flips pictures from landscape to up right. just on it’s own. (all the time)

Almost perfect.

Peer uit Calgary on

I use the app to document project progress, often in areas with little to cell service, the upload feature after your return home does not seem to work. It always starts with pictures from a year ago, by the time I get to todays pictures, the app locks up. The cloud function does not seem to work very well. Have started using the cable.

Notes overlay pop up after each photo

PST780 on

Been using this app for years with the industry pack. Recently the app started having a pop up for additional note overlay after every single picture. I take many pictures so this is very annoying and there’s no way to turn it off in the settings.

I love it!

WhyMustIGiveANickname???? on

This app has not only saved me on multiple occasions, but it massively improves my quality of work and reports. Having all the information stamped onto the photo is SUPER helpful, and the ability to compare and manipulate photos to determine distances, area, etc is super handy. I do a variety of different projects and I heavily use this app every day, for every single job. I’ve recommended it to every contractor I’ve worked with, and forced my team to use it. Taking notes is great and very important, but being able to take a picture, record information on it, AND have all the gps data is just awesome. I do have one negative though. I was in an area with spotty cell coverage and taking pictures with the app. It was taking a long time to record the data (the loading wheel was spinning for awhile after taking a photo). I later realized that a bunch of my photos didn’t save due to this for whatever reason. It was likely having a hard time getting a location fix, which caused multiple photos to end up timing out and not getting recorded. If it’s possible for the app to still take a picture without recording the location data in these circumstances that would be ideal. Because I didn’t notice until I got home (6hr drive from Site) and a bunch of the pictures I took never got saved.

Fantastic app for engineering field and construction work

GeoEng51 on

I’m a geological engineer and do a lot of field work: mapping surveys, site inspections, construction, etc. Taking photos has always been a big part of my practice and in the last 10 years, having photos geo-referenced has been an added bonus. This app raises our capabilities even more - information such as location, elevation, view direction, address, and user text can all be added right on the photo. Photo locations and views can be shown on Google or Apple maps. Photo and information management is superb. This is a well-designed, very capable app; it’s value to cost ratio is very high.
