Peak Scanner

I have dowloaded Peak Scanner today, paying the requested 3.5 €, and I am very disappointed by the App. I am currently in Vicuna in Chili, surrounded by many high mountains. The blue triangles never get at the top of the mountains as they should do; they stay in the middle of the screen. In addition, out of the dozen of moutains around me, Peak Scanner can identify 2 of them, but without being capable of giving their height. Therefore, the App is a total failure and I regret to have downloaded it.

The app worked fine initially but since changing my phone it thinks I’m in France when I am actually in the UK, I can’t see any way to calibrate the app or to seek help! Any help would be gratefully received

Am looking at a very large hill and app not able to identify it even though am well within 200km range. Money back please.

I am 3 KM from the largest mountain in the area and it shows it in a different direction, the second largest it does not recognize This is Switzerland - no good here

Great App and works as it should. Will be perfect for finding hills when out walking! Slightly disappointed after paying as still seems to show 23km max, even when set at full range. Thankfully a bit further then the OS Maps 15km range. Agree with some others - be good if you could click the hill and open the OS Hill page or another site for information on the hill.

Works great Loving the radar view! Didn't know u could adjust the range. just fab

I’ve tried a few apps of this type and I have to say, this is the easiest and most effective to use. No need for any signal. Just take your phone out of your pocket and point! Seems to know all the mountains round me wherever I go. Very pleased!

Really wanted this to work but it refused to show me anything other than small hills nearby. The settings are supposed to let you scan out to see mountains in the distance but this simply didn’t work, even when I set the ‘number of peaks on display’ to the maximum. It continues to only show me the weeny little hills in the near distance. Feeling duped.

It’s okay. You can limit range of search in terms of distance but not in terms of height. I’d rather just know tops above a certain height rather than a massive list of tops within a certain distance

Although the peaks are there there are far too many crammed on the screen and therefore impossible to read or identify on phone when they are close together. Any slight movement and they scroll left and right so fast I cannot keep it still (except on a tripod). Sometimes the peaks are the correct ones for where I am but not synchronised with the compass so appear in the wrong place. A snapshot would be much better - taking a photo of the peaks and then the names added on . Maybe I'll try a screenshot but superimposing on a photo would be fantastic. I like the distance slider acts as a rough filter. Non U.K. Peaks would be good but bear in mind even google has some in the wrong place and some countries mapping leaves a lot to be desired.
