VV4yno ,

Great app but premium hard to justify.

I have a bunch of free apps but like Newtracs above all the others. It is 100% usable as the free version without being too complicated.
I might go on 6-8 day trips a year and although I’d love to try the premium membership- $100 a year is a bit Steep for occasional use. Maybe a middle tier of user should be introduced where users can earn a subscription by recording and rating tracks - it would make the available data more comprehensive and encourage users to contribute.
I think if the annual price was lower, you’d have more subscribers and more income overall - especially when you consider the competition and what is available for fixed price purchase.
All in all, I’d rather use Newtracs but $100 is just too steep to get me to take the plunge.

Developer Response ,

Hi VV4yno - Thanks for this feedback. We will be introducing a reward program to allow user to unlock Premium via contributing feedback and trip logs in coming months. Thanks, Newtracs Crew.

What an update

Opened NewTracs this evening to have a look around was pleasantly surprised by a new and updated look, I actually closed the app thinking I opened something else by mistake..

This app is all I use when Offroad, I occasionally open Waze if I’m travelling a fair distance but otherwise NewTracs does it all. Refreshing to see some developers and clearly a team that cares for their product.

My only suggestion so far is the ability for paid users to add markers, warning etc similar to how Waze works for obstacles on tracks, updated track conditions, gear requirements etc. I’m sure it’s a big job and would obviously change the app but I think some sort of marker/note function would really help.

Thanks guys, keep it up 🙏

Ok but not replacing my current map apps

Decided to try newtracs as everyone raves about it, topo maps looked awesome, could see 4wd trails and difficulties, sweet!

Downloaded the map for offline use to give it a test, opening the app and nothing, just blank, waited and waited but still nothing. Even tried to redownload the offline map when I came back in to reception. No luck. After a close and open eventually got the topo info but not quickly.

Then hooked it up to CarPlay, what a disaster. Does not show location on map, does not show the downloaded map data, just a blank screen, and frequently dropped altitude and speed readings when gps reception was definitely available. It worked 1 out of the 10 times I tried it, and for $100 a year with CarPlay being behind the paywall you would hope it works.

Will keep it on my phone to keep an eye on development, but subscription has been cancelled (thank goodness for a trial) and will not be my first choice when exploring new areas.
