"Doesn't appear to work on partners phone, so no location to follow. Also I am unable to go back to my home screen without closing session, so always in way of other aspects of phone use"
Colin Thatcher
"Deleted and re installed but still can't past, the enter your name screen.... Keeps saying, please enter name regardless of what I enter"
Parth Handa
"This works fine but as I'm a gps artist I'd love the map to show the full track from the start of the tracking session. That way people could see what I'm drawing while I'm drawing it, not just my current location. I'd pay for that feature but I know it's not one that many people would want."
Nathan Rae
"Great at what it does. I use it almost daily. 5 stars if we could add simple label waypoints and an easy way to share GPS coordinates to people that dont have the app, even if we have to pay for those features. Now is a good time to take over motion x customers *hint hint. I know of about 18,000 fellow employees that are looking for the next best gps app."
