Directions a matter of LIFE or DEATH

This app is alright if you want to putz around the neighborhood or if you're in an area where there is a large population to go to for help. I would not recommend using your smart phone and this app together, you are asking for trouble. If you do use this app make sure to bring along a map, compass, matches (fire starter), knife, and always have in the back of your mind a readiness to sleep in the forest when you can't get home. I travel with a map a compass and my trustworthy talk to the satellites Garmin. We are in a sport that is expensive, dangerous, adventurous, always evolving and a lot of fun! You know the old adage "you get what you pay for", and direction are no exception. Be safe...be smart, have fun! JVB


Map is wrong

mi_canuck

For northern Ontario, the latest app has many errors of where the actual trail is routes. Trails this have been the same for many years. The older version of the app was MUCH better. The trails were more accurate. Seems like the latest update takes its data from a different source and a very bad one at that. People that don't know the area and rely on the app are bound to get lost. Luckily signage in the area is great. The app not so much.


Snow depth

Wny south

Please put snow depth back on the map layering


Good to terrible

App was decent last season but recent update is awful. Trail numbers and status was removed. Position is spot on but trail location isn't always accurate. Please fix or revert back to past app.


True north!

App needs a true north setting! The map is hard to use when it keeps repositioning depending on your compass heading.


Awful

Would not recommend this app to anyone, it doesn't show trail markers or cities or anything useful! Overall terrible app!


EXTREMELY USEFUL APP

I am so happy I stumbled upon this app, everything about it is great!!!


Trail markings

DeltaOps

Great app. Allows for viewing when there's no cell phone service. ONLY problem is, that the trails are not marked with their designation labels. Trails are marked with Lat/Long. Please update your trail marking to the trail designator.

This app is terrible, maps and locations are incorrect in numerous locations in my area. Not to mention Polaris just offers this app and says on their website that they compensate the local clubs witch is completely incorrect. They are the ones that get these trails to the superb riding condition they are! And the paper maps might be old technology but they are atleast correct and provide money back to the tail systems! In my opinion it is much better than putting money into another CEO's pocket!

Pro R 800

This app is a must!!! Without it I never would have negotiated across an unmarked lake when barrels were expected but not placed because of warm tempts. The only problem was I was 100 miles from a rent condo and it was -15 w/o wind chill. Keep your iPhone warm because mine froze twice (just shut down) but I never lost my recorded route. Down load this bad boy!! ?
