Ratings and Reviews
GIS Pro leaves you hanging
This app works as advertised but for one annoying glitch - it constantly reverts to the background while being used and the iPad goes back to the homescreen. When it does so, it loses the area you are zoomed into, loses edits you might be making, and turns off the GPS if you were using it. Takes 10 seconds or so to get back into the app and get back to what you were doing - not a long time but it happens every few minutes so overall very annoying. I wouldn't recommend this app until they have fixed this problem, which they so far have not been able to do for my iPad Air.
Vapourware stay away
This company creates very expensive software that has ok functionality, but becomes buggy and no updates. Instead of updating, they create another very expensive piece of software and repeat. They do spend a bit on marketing so that is likely why the price incredibly high for what you get and the absolute lack of support. There are much better GIS software out there for iOS.
Good App - No Support
I have had this app 5 years and loved it. There has only been one update I can remember and it messed everything up. Wish it had a function to delete last upgrade. Emails to support never get answered.
