Drains your battery in the background

Theres lots of content, not as much as I would like though for being in canada. The one major drawback, when it is closed, actually double tapping the home button and closing the app, it still uses location services. Which, if you dont pay attention will kill your battery if you are inside, or dont want the gps on all the time(Literally). Stop tracking when the app is closed.

App crashes

The app showed much promise in its features and nice interface. Sadly it is extremely slow, in app maps rarely load properly and occasionally cause crashing, and the search function is flawed.

Very slow, uninstalled and didnt look back

The app took so long to load any data (wifi or cell). I had to quit and reload a couple times just to get the trails in my area. I think there might be a problem also with the displaying of trails in the app. They work fine on the web (computer) but in the app they dont show the points or routing. A pity, since EveryTrail now seems to be gone. And the app idea is great.

Great app

More people need to get this

Let down

This app is glitchy, and a big disappointment. Wouldnt load nearby trails.

Great app

Please make it possible to view photos on their normal scale (not that weird vertical scaling that automatically cuts 2/3 of the photos)

Used to be great

This app used to be my go to app when walking and tracking. Since the last upgrade this app is somewhat cumbersome to use. Its a shame. I will probably have to dump this app now.

Slow to Open

The latest version is very slow to open. Many trails are misnamed. You can see the trails - but not for all- but they are small scale and cant be used for navigation. Ill keep it for reference only.

Wayyyy too much money.

29.99 a year is way too steep. You dont even get a chance to try the app out first. Someone needs to take a course in market research.

Not for Canadians

I really really would love to like this app. Everything about is great and I would buy the pro upgrade in a second!! But unfortunately they have very poor Canadian coverage ( except for very very touristy places ) and I tried to help out and upgrade the trails but have submitted two big trails 9 and 3 months ago and they still havent been added or updated and for that matter I havent seen any other coverage upgrades in my area ( Kelwona, BC ). There is also no status notification if anyone even has received or seen my submission. I have been so close to purchasing the pro app in hope that it would have more coverage but I have a pretty bad feeling that the coverage will be just as poor unless you go to touristy places like Banff. So although the app is amazing, their maps are a let down...I think Google has more coverage on their terrain maps. But that would be half as bad if only locals and avid hikers could submit and have their local gem hikes submitted much much faster.... Maybe the US or other countries around the world have better coverage, but I was hoping to find trails that are not available at the Tourist Information Booth on here. Sorry, eh

Dies in the background...

I love this app until it (inevitably) stops recording my gps signal when I take pictures or do anything else with my phone (iPhone 6). I can restart recording, but Ive missed huge portions of epic treks, one where I was really hoping to see my tracks so I could follow them back. I guess it just doesnt work for me. Careful if you plan on relying on the gps logging.

Great app

Shows all trails in Ontario. Exactly what I needed. On each trails shows what it is used for. From hiking to mountain biking.

I miss the icons

I liked the icons for What to do. The words look weird.

Awesome hiking gps app

Wanted something clean and clever to help plan and track hikes. This is it! Free is good and the annual pro fee is good value for power users. Love it.

Handy Hiking App

Use this to plan hiking for holidays. Also, location services are great when you drive past an interesting trailhead or peak, to see whats there. Not 100% complete, but more everyday.

Free app

The free version of this app is amazing. It provides you a great way to look up trails and to match them to your ability. As a new hiker, I appreciate being able to see whats available around me as well as trails that I would never have heard of. Great resource!!!

Great little app!

This app is awesome! Show a lot of hikes that I didnt know about in my area, also like how you can read reviews and ratings on how difficult it is. Very pleased.

Great app but...

Latest update won`t update.It says there`s an error.Never mind.It just stopped with the error & started downloading ok.

Amazing

There seems to be only one down fall some of the directions are taking you to weird entrances there will be a parking lot on the other side of the trail but they will take you to some little side street and you park on the side of the road to get into the trail!!! But in saying that This app really does give you a lot of great info and the fact that people do post reviews is amazing and helps you pick the right place to go!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Great app for hikers

I tried to add pictures to a trail and no pictures were shown from my camera roll for some reason. Not sure why.
