Dopo aver acquistato la versione pro mi trovo a non poter più scaricare mappe se non pagando ulteriormente e a non poter più esportare le mie tracce.

I have this app for a while now and doesn't work with my s25, i have tried many things to make the recording to work but it can't follow me and record at the 5 second rate. When the screen is off the app only record positions when i turn back the screen on... The app was very functional back in the days, i hope it will be fixed. (The same happen with the s23 of my dad)

I've used this app almost from its inception, & it just keeps getting better. Responsive dev & I find the UI intuitive, fast, & easy to use, way better than the competitors. And I've tried about all of them since I spend the majority of my time in remote areas, often without reliable cell service. Don't go out without it.

Great app! I happily paid $10 for the Pro version. I've taken 6-7 hour canoe trips and recorded my track the entire way, sampling every minute. No battery issues. C'mon Crittermaps, get a real outdoorsperson to completely overhaul the waypoint icons. There are way too many icons for urban places like "butcher" and "theater", and the icons for REAL usable outdoor places are poorly done. And you should add a Google Drive backup feature for people who don't use DropBox.

Been using this as primary navigation for over 10 years now. Well worth the cost, there are no subscription fees and it just plain works. Simple.

Used to have Android Wear support but that's been missing for years now. Can we get it back?
