Misleading I really wish I had read the reviews before signing up to premium after seeing many replies saying that only 12 5 of Map s are charged I think I live in an area where all that 12 5 of maps are Spent a little time trying to figure things out but when asked to purchase Credits that was it for me No thanks I ll stick to Google maps for now lol     Craig Groves
Love this app It s great for planning a route especially when somewhere new I have used it in Spain Norway and France as well as in the UK Not everywhere is mapped but the gaps are in very remote parts of Norway for example If you re into that kind of thing you can record your track and use it to help activity monitoring Useful cycling and walking It s great when walking somewhere without footpaths like the Scottish Highlands                     S Trotter
I ve had this app installed for a few years now i remember it being pretty good but haven t used it for a while It s unusable now With a full 4g signal it takes about 5 minutes to render the basic map overlay for a square mile of area That makes it useless for its intended purpose and I ve uninstalled it     Jim Strange
One of the most amazing apps for people like us beeing often offroad or off the beaten path Only wish would be to be aible to send share our private routes without them beeing automatically shared in public Please viewranger team let us know by email when this is possible All people that we recommended this app in the last years will definitely even pay for it if would be 100 privat aswell Keep doing this great job thanks                     Spr Main
Great app for finding new routes to follow and creating your own In depth track recording which allows you to pan through the recorded track Excellent customer support Emailed with an issue and had a response which fixed the problem within minutes It can be a bit quirky at times but seems to work better than most alternatives that I have tried and is fine once you get accustomed to the UI                     Reece Bennett
Agreed to a year subscription and got 7 days free did quite a bit of work checking maps and planned to use it By day 6 my username email can no longer login any stuff i saved has gone and I m still expected to pay the subscription Sod that I m off to find software where the programmers can at least write a logical statement to keep a user live while waiting for the software to realise the user want s to pay has put in a payment agreement via google and was therefore already a signed up customer Good thing I was only down the local shops to see if the Offy was marked as a favourite and not in the middle of the sahara desert at midday looking for a waterhole     Reginald Pike
I ve found this a very good app for finding routes or creating ones from GPX files purchasing OS map tiles and navigating routes I don t find the user interface all that intuitive so they drop a star but when I ve had questions I ve emailed the support team and got super fast responses even on weekends so they earn back the 5th star                     Craig Dunant
Great app i like it but recently and quite frequently my security app is showing a privacy risk for this app especially with the location I ve tried adjusting the settings with in the app to help i know location is part of the app to help you find where you are on the map but it s the data being sent to somewhere else                 Sarah P
Really good app I have been using it for about three years GPS is so much more accurate on the same phone compared to a previous app I used literally accurate to the metre which has got me onto some almost invisible overgrown and hidden footpaths I also like the off track alarm which you can set to just a few metres though seldom needed I strongly recommend paying for and downloading the OS maps It makes for much better navigation Great value if you walk even a reasonable amount                     Philip Terry
I ve been using this app for over a year now and it is highly reliable It has tons of backcountry trails all mapped out and a lot of them are named trails Only thing I would change is update the search engine for specific trails and areas                 Brent Lowry
I love it Tracks all of my trails on the same map so I can cross off the ones I ve done The one map style has dotted lines that show even the very short trails which I used to find many trails I never knew existed in my home town I like that i can trace through the trail based on time distance traveled elevation etc                     Christian Gould
Very misleading description of what premium version actually gives you I feel cheated I believe I ve read quite carefully the terms and conditions and I was under the impression that the premium version covers everything within the app To my surprise I have to buy some credits on top of the paid subscription You are shameless Also the search option is completely useless so I had to search locations on the map I got the app only to see the walks from Walkhighlands but deleted it now     Annamaria Venturella
I went premium before that was a subscription and bought premium basemaps outright This still works well for me with gpx upload from REI hiking project etc and for the usual places I visit in Europe However it had no basemaps at all for South America leading me to explore Oruxmaps Now that I have access to their open source framework I will certainly not be giving more money to Viewranger I want to own what I buy yo I m happy to buy it but it s no longer available here             H Foster
Been using this app for years since Symbian now on Android Absolutely love it The free maps are excellent although I do have plenty of OS maps now I create find route on windows or Android iOS tablet Upload to my phone and off I go I know how far and what sort of terrain before I start Fabulous Be aware a few people charge for their routes but very easy to find a free alternative or just create your own                     Paul Mulholland
I have a Huawei Watch 2 This app is very good and the only real standalone gps app I could find tht lets you download maps and tracks to your watch so you do not need a internet or phone connection Its limitation is it is unable to record your track without a phone connection So for this I need to use another app It would be awesme if you could add this function Also It would be nice if you offered a paid version without adds as I would be happy to pay to get the adds removed It appears you can pay for extra maps but not the app itsself Anyways very good app so far                 Nick Taylor
I primarily use this for the Ordnance Survey maps and for that it s excellent I like the way you can download the grid squares you know you ll need in advance for places unlikely to have a data signal I ll give this 5 stars once they have Tizen support this app and the Samsung Watch would be a perfect combination                 James Lowman
Loads slowly and downloads tens of thousands of small files when you select map areas to download which amass to hundreds of thousands when you select more areas to download These files should be put into a container as it takes ages to delete them afterwards Should know and allow for downloading mountain groups instead of asking you to select mountain areas         Daniel Grigoras
Nice app would give five stars if it was possible to download maps for whole countries as offered by some competitors and the interface was a bit more intuitive                 Ed Cook
Just brilliant takes a while to get used to working out your own tracks and maps but then it is brilliant and and buying the credits and then buying squares of the map works really well                     James Mitchell
Not the best app for mountain biking I got this app so I can view the trails on my watch unfortunately the subscription service doesn t list any of the trails Maybe it d available by paying more money for the premium maps When competing with free apps like trailforks that are superior I can t imagine paying more just to find that the map coverage is poorer than the alternative     Devin Sawatzky
I have been using this app for several years just as a backup in case of emergency and its outstanding once you figure out the process of downloading the maps for offline use Great app                     Brandon Collette
Just started using it and think its brilliant Been able to create a route and save it as a GPX so i can use it on my Garmin watch saves having to get your phone out in bad weather Thumbs up from me                     Tim Bowers
I deleted my post by mistake i was asking about an option to choose to read elevation from the sensor and thus recording the track height accordingly                 Milad Ne
This app is a perfect companion for all the hikes I do The offline GPS maps are so accurate and so helpful                     Monika H
Great mapping and tracking app with the ability to pre load maps for use when out of cell service                     Carl Gronquist
Great app which also works with my android watch I am finding some of the interface quirky to use so looking at YouTube videos for help Will update review when I have figured out more how to use the features more fully                 Kevin Marlow
The app stops after a while and doesn t records the track Contacted support desk Nothing happened     Hariprasad Shevire
One of my favorite apps ever helps me to plan track and process routes navigate eith high accuracy and stay safe in wilderness Highly recommended                     Vahagn Vardumyan
I use this with uk os maps for all my walks Clear simple reliable I didn t give it 5 stars as there is no such thing as perfection                 david forsyth
Very flexible Allows route to be followed simultaneously with recording a track Also Skyline works offline The Ordnance Survey app same maps can t do that                     Andrew Scott
Really good app I use it to support navigation in search and rescue                     Tessa Lukehurst
Good app works most of the time clear and easy to use Has struggled to locate me on occasions though so definitely wouldn t trust it fully                 Jeremy Salmon
Great experience have maps all over Europe with all the trails and I never lost connwction                     Mel l
Very useful app with a big improvement in image addition I enjoy using the challenges                 patrick marklew
Very reliable and great accuracy A very good back up to map reading skills                     Kevin Dowding
Im using this app a lot for my mountain trekking following a gps route work like a charm i love both openstreetmap and viewranger map would be nice to have offline feature even for openstreet                     Lorenzo Santi
excelent hiking app would be great to have also the possibility to find follow the route to a destination                     sorin p
This is an essential tool for anyone who s into the great outdoors I ve used since the early days and it keeps getting better and better                     A Google user
