Ohio Trails Customer Insights

1. This is very frustrating considering how many trails will not have reliable service.Haven't even used it yet and found the local North Coast inland trail map is not up to date and the new section has been open for over a year! So glad I did a guest sign in, sounds like it's a real pain to make a profile !!!! Deleting this app right now!!!My first and only option when the app opened up was to give it permission for my location at all times.

2. Would try again in the future after improvements are made thoughI am offended that my tax dollars were used to create this app! Total waste of my money! The log in is intrusive, why do you need my full name, phone number, date of birth and last four digits of my ssn to see a trail map? The app itself looks like a ripped off and dumbed down version of the app AllTrails.

3. The maps are basically useless when there's no signal on the trail, and it you can't download the maps to use offline, there's no real reason to have the app using space.Nice idea but sill needs a LOT of work.

4. Do they know you stole their design concept? Thanks but I'll be deleting your app and I'll stick to using AllTrails.I hope I get to update this review but for the moment... The app is slow and many of the features are very bug-y including the offline options.

5. Does show trails, but really the utility is not here and I'd rather use OSMAnd instead so I can get info on features along the route.This has the potential to be a great app and a great resource, but it needs work.

6. Feels heavy when scrolling and doesn't seem to offer local caching or cache is as slow as data connection.

7. Great concept, but doesn't work! No matter what area, or size of area, I can only get about 18% downloaded before it crashes.

8. So no maps on the 1st page and the big ohio map is missing a bunch of super well-known trails.

9. I wish you luck.Slow response, loading circle infinite when denying background location tracking.

10. Ive tested it over the past week at Hocking Hills and Culberson Woods, but it is quirky and unpredictable also requires a lengthy sign up that I was unhappy with.

11. I didnt see Marions tallgrass trail which we spent millions of dollars renovating.
