Great app but…
Great app but now it crashes every time I load a track or try to save a recorded track was not happy to lose a 10 track to new park I went to
If you have a search bar, it should be useful
Today, 2023.07.21, trying to find the location of Fish Lake in Washington, search provides the following results: “”” Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Lake —— Fish Ln … “”” 17 indiscernible results renders the experience useless. Please either remove the search bar or fix your search experience.
Great features, but the crashes are keeping this app from getting 5 stars
Even after the recent update that claimed it fixed bugs on 6/28/23 or so, I still can’t view the map tab, without a loading screen right before a crash. Every single time. App also crashes if you try to download too many map tiles for too long. Get on the ball and fix these memory leaks, guys.
Not good
I have used BCN on the Android for years and loved the full FREE functionality. This Apple version is just awful. It is not an “app” it you have to subscribe just to download a map or save a trip. It’s getting uninstalled today and I’ll look for a non-leechware replacement.
Lots of capabilities
Addons for parcels in most states.
Offline topo maps
Is what I needed
Terrible compared to pro
I had pro on my android but just switched to Apple. XE is awful. I can’t search waypoints anymore. I uploaded a trip online but I can’t see what’s on the trip from my phone. It kept crashing after trying to open the trip. Why can’t you just make pro available to iPhone?
