My Must Have App
08/09/2020

Since I got my first iPad some years ago, this has been my favorite app. Its design makes it much easier than any other map app to use for navigation, street view, and my profession/hobby of geology. Having satellite from both Apple and Google is great because I can choose the one that displays the best view of my target street travel or geologic feature. The street view control is easier than other map apps, and the labels are a good size. Very legible, but not so big they obscure the map.I know several users are unhappy about the new subscription, but it was necessitated by an increase in costs that are beyond the developers' control. It was not a case of greed. Having looked at similar apps, I was delighted by the low price of the DuoMaps subscription and feel that it is well worth the price of two lattes for a year's use of street views. It sure beats the possibility of losing DuoMaps entirely.

Every day, every dollar...

Every day I have to make quick judgements about how to get to a location, and what I’ll find when I get there. DuoMaps Is my most-used app, after Mail & Camera. It helps me avoid problems and helps me earn every dollar. DuoMaps implements Street View in a superior, intuitive way. Better mapping information, accessed more quickly, and with a better user interface. When a problem crops up due to unexpected changes by either Apple or Google, the Developer tackles it quickly — and gets it fixed. I have no reservations: buy it!!

Almost perfect

Restores the beloved Google Street View to iDevices, lacking only a few features; there's no compass function on the photos, so one can't tell in which direction the image is pointing. Hopefully that nice touch will come in a later version. A definite positive in the MobiMaps is the greater ease of removing pins; given that a wandering finger can so easily drop them, it's nice to clear them out with no fuss at all.

Family share?

I have had this app for a long time but rarely use it. Now I see the message and reviews about a subscription? My husband loves this app and uses it all the time. He will buy an annual subscription. Do I understand the subscription correctly? The app permits family sharing except for “in-app purchases. In order to buy the necessary subscription you have to buy it within the app. Therefore all family subscribers must also individually BUY subscriptions??? And the data still comes from either Google or Apple. I guess I don’t “love” this app enough. I can use Apple or Google Maps. Sorry, not worth it for me.

Developer Response
The app now supports Family Sharing of subscriptions. This option was not available to developers at the time of your review. If you would like to make contact on https://brainflash.uk/duomaps/support/ I can help you to love the app again.
