Awful Customer Support Response Timeliness

When the app works, which is most of the time, it’s awesome. I have the paid version, and, thus, I expect someone to respond timely when there is an issue. Twice in the past few weeks, there were issues and BOTH times, it took multiple emails and many days (sometimes more than a week) to get someone to actually respond. So, I really don’t appreciate the sub-par technical support.

Good, needs some improvement.

Keep improving app by listening to reviewers.

Fantastic tool for hunting

App full of features like two finger distance measuring tool for starters.

Best hike bike run Apple Watch app

This is the best app for outdoor sports with the Apple Watch and Ive tried a number. Can follow heart rate, speed, location with maps. Wish the Apple Watch heart rate could run without being in exercise mode.

Love this app!!!

I spend a lot of time in the mountains all year round and have tried a number of different apps but this one definitely works the best whether I be hiking or skiing. I love that you can set it to stop recording when you get back to your starting point, as I sometimes forget. It provides a ton of helpful info about each outing from elevation gain to average speed. It can even use an offline map. There are lots of great features to this app. It has become one of my most used apps. Thanks for creating such a fabulous program!

Very nice and Easy to use

I have only installed this app recently and used it a couple of times while horseback riding Works great, stable, good features Only gripe is that it cannot be installed on my iPad to view tracks. This is the first time I come across an app which simply doesnt show up in the App Store on my iPad whether by searching, looking at purchased apps (both iPhone or iPad only). Even when searching using publishers name../. Too bad it would be nice to review a ride on a big screen

Best. App. Ever.

Best activity tracker app out there, much more consistent and accurate than MMP or strava. Thank you for making this!!

Excellent app

This is by far the best tracking app Ive used. It starts up quickly, doesnt slow down my phone, has great charts and graphs that break down your trips and a neat option to stop tracking once you return to your starting point. All in all a solid app.

Very good app, some missing things, buggy

1. BACKUP. We need to be able to backup the entire database and have the choice to email the file or airdrop the file to another device (iPhone/iPad/Computer). Ive had to reinstall apps before and if I ever have to do that with trails I will lose all of my data! And what if I buy a new iPhone and choose to set it up as a "new phone" instead of "restore from a backup" of my old phone? There is no way to get my trails data back. This is an oversight and its something that should not be difficult to implement at all. Under the hood they are using a database engine that surely has an export feature. Ive emailed support a few times about this issue and never got a response from them. Theyve helped me with other issues but whenever I mention this to them they completely ignore me. -2 stars for this, there needs to be a way to back up data, especially since it is something so easy to implement! The official solution that trails support eventually gave me was to email them all to myself. Really? They expect us to email hundreds of trips to ourselves one by one if we have a problem? At least due to a recent update it is now possible to airdrop individual tracks or send gpx files to other apps but the same problem remains. I have a lot of tracks and need a backup solution. 2. Id like to be able to pause a recording from the watch. Right now it can be stopped but not resumed from the watch. When I kayak, I keep my phone in the hull and use the watch to control trails. When I kayak 15-20 miles I often take 2 or 3 short breaks and need to pause the recording but I cant! Ive been using this app since 2007 or so. I think this was one of the first trail tracking apps and its definitely the best in many areas. Im glad they switched to a more sustainable subscription model and Im happy to continue to fund apps that are well written and designed but lately they seem to be going down hill. This backup issue really needs to be resolved otherwise Ill have to use a different app, my data is important to me. Also, where is the iPad app that has been in the works for years now? How long can this possibly take?

A Versatile App

This is a nice app. I primarily use it for hiking. It has some nice features. It integrates with the camera to save pics along your hike track. Also works with Ihealth. Very reliable data collector and with latest update allows for full backup to iCloud. Maps are a little lackluster but downloads can be done which allow full use without being in cell coverage.

Super

Well rounded app for tracking hiking activities around the world. Provides all required features and captures accurate data throughout a hike

Love this app!

This app is fantastic. Great for tracking and saving hikes. It does not have suggested hikes, so if thats what you are looking for, this app is for you. Downloadable offline geographic maps for a minimum price is well worth it.

Hit and Miss

I downloaded this app to track my bike riding, as opposed to the tracking built into the Apple Watch. At first it was great, however quickly degraded in performance. The watch app is less than useless, slow, and often unresponsive. The phone app works ok, however once the workout is done and it summarizes it, it deletes the map of your route. The stats stay, but thats its. Needless to say, Im deleting it and moving on

My go to Trail saver

I have a mileage goal for walking trails in the GSMNP and this app is a lifesaver! I love it!!!

great app!

I use the app for tracking bicycle rides and hikes. It works great, and power consumption is low. I also like that I can look at the data from my pc on a bigger screen.

I wanted to like it

I really wanted to like this app. I use a number of mapping applications for work and recreation and this looked promising. What I have found is that it takes forever (never) to locate where am at, to load high resolution closeup maps and to load on the Apple Watch. Ive yet to be able to even test it because the app wont find where I am!

Trail Riding -Horseback

I found the App to be excellent in mapping and tracking the trails. The steps and miles I need to monitor on future rides- not sure if it was pilot error.

GPS - hike

The BEST trail device!! Free, no ads, easy to use, WORKS, simple, does not eat up battery... Saves hikes & trails. So glad to have this one!

Tracks

Has every feature you need to customize your training and trails

Easy

Installed the app and pressed start. Ended up with all you would expect and a bit more. Suggest learning to use the offline maps feature as the app can be hard on limited mobile data plans.
