Good, some bugs, UI needs a complete overhaul – ViewRanger: Hike, Bike or Walk Review

The user interface is maddening -- completely non-intuitive. When it works it is great, but it does have a few bugs that may or may not be corrected in the latest version. I have had it refuse to work (continually crash) on occasion when there is no network connection. It seems to help if you have it running before you go off-grid. That may be fixed, because it hasn't done it lately. It also seems to have some variable limit on the amount of time it will record (silently quits recording sometimes), and on occasion it will completely lose your recorded track after you stop and try to save it. Seems to be a poorly handled network comm thing. Really needs some serious rewrite and hard-core software validation testing. Bottom-Line: Fun, but you gotta take a paper map too if you are deep into the unknown.
