1. I upgraded for the extra features once I discovered the benefits of the app.Love everything about it! Maps are great, planning a route is great, everything is great EXCEPT: If I record a track, I can't go back and view the stats for said track (max speed, average speed, total distance, etc), and if I forget to turn off track recording when I get back to my car (I use this app while sailing), I cannot go back and edit the track to get rid of the section that got recorded while driving.It has a lot of great futures but too many are not easy to use.
2. This is an easy way for me to keep track of future destinations off grid, record complete trail maps, download and use area maps for locations that I plan to be exploring, etc.
3. For me, I download maps and add waypoints by search which then shows up on previewing the map and makes it easier to find and zoom in to preview the trails beforehand.I was looking for a replacement for my 60CSx which is old enough that Garmin quit supporting it.
4. First of all the maps are not as detailed as similar programs, more importantly is that the GPS tracking just draws a straight line from one point to the other it does not show your course along the way in active time.
5. Several times since owning this, I've ended up not being able to use it, having to go back to Google Earth / Maps to find our way around.
6. The trail maps record elevation, time, and distance fairly accurately.
7. Also, when recording a trail, it dances around when you're standing still.It can't legally claim to be survey grade software, but I've used it numerous times in the field, gone back with surveyors and have been within a few feet.
8. The worst for me is spending countless hours finding way-points using Google earth then never being able to find them in the folders.
9. Bonus if it worked with my Samsung Galaxy watch so I didn't need my phone.Works great, pretty straight forward nav app, has been 100% reliable.
10. I do see there have been updates but those do not show on the version I purchased and there doesn't seem to be any update/upgrade option.
11. I hope to see a track back feature in the future and a total ascent and descent tabulation.
