I love this app, I use it all the time, I like that it shows you all the different parks regardless of what agency administrates the park and not just the NPS sites like a lot of maps or apps. What I would add to this app is a easy way to see all of the different types of parks that may be in a specific area with out having to click on every type of destination.

Thank you for the review! If you go to the Map tab and then select All Categories in the upper-left hamburger menu, it does show everything on the map, with icons per category. I hope you find that useful!

Overall, very thorough app. I have an MS Word I’ve been using to check off places I’ve been so this is much quicker and easier. Only thing I’d suggest is adding National Wilderness Areas, a way to sort/view sites by state, and maybe National Register of Historic Places.

Developer Response
Thanks for the feedback! You can go to More -> Settings and change Display Name from Park to State if you’d like to sort by state. I hope this helps!

I was going to buy a map for my wall to keep up with my travels, but now that I've found this, I won't need to. Very nice design layout and easy to use. I gave it 4 stars. I always leave room for improvement. Can think of a few ideas, like being able to send your info to friends to show them where you've been. Great work!

Love how simple this is and that you keep list going and updated. Plus great links. You should do one for US States and world map of all countries. Nothing out there like this app to do easy pinning and saving.

Thanks for the thoughts on new app ideas. We’ll definitely have to consider it!
