Good maps

I've used this in several parts of the US and the maps are good - pretty spot on accurate for distances when compared to my Garmin. I wish the drawing were a bit easier/intuitive.
Use only when network is avail

Kudos for drawing routes with your finger. But Minus three stars for difficult off-line map loading. The description says you can preload maps for off-line use; however, after viewing maps at home, when I actually got in the back country with no signal the maps were gone and I was looking at a blank screen behind my GPS waypoint
Love it

Footpath is great. I use it to plan out all my bike rides. Free version provides great functionality, but after using it, I upgraded to paid via in app purchase. Super simple interface, plenty of different map options, and good accuracy. Can't recommend it more highly!
Fantastic GPX route planning app

This app is absolutely fantastic for planning hikes. Even though we have used other online route apps, we've been looking for an easy to use route planning app for our phones that exports GPX route files for use with our favorite iPhone GPS software (GaiaGPS). Footpath does it seamlessly. We also upload the route files to fitness apps like RunKeeper where it tells us in advance how many calories our planned hikes will burn. Wonderful! Suggested future updates: add the ability to import existing GPX route/track files for easy sharing and editing (this is Footpath's most glaring deficiency in our opinion--right now you can only export routes to other apps); make it possible to easily move starting and mid-points of a route you want to edit (right now you can only edit an existing route by deleting segments of the route starting at the end until you get to a fork or turn you want to explore and then continuing along a new path from there); and it would also be great if your routes were automatically saved to a personal account on a website maintained by Footpath so they could be more easily managed and exported to your favorite GPS and fitness apps. All that said, Footpath is pretty awesome as is and has already benefited us greatly by giving us the ability to quickly and easily plan and execute our weekly hikes anywhere we are whenever we have a couple minutes. Thank you!
