Lots of fun- lots of empty roads.

Seriously I never realized how much of the world is bare blank empty roads lined with various shades of green and brown. So yeah you can tap for a looong time before you find a clue. But once you get that little bit of information- a language, a highway number, a road sign- then it gets addicting. If you land in rural Russia and don’t read the language then yeah you’re done for. There a tendency to repeat certain places a lot... Russia, Canada, Brazil... it’s almost as if they’re enormous countries or something. But one time the game put me in a small Canadian town in front of a building with a Canadian flag and a map of the town! Ya just never know.
One thing I would like is some indication of how far you’ve traveled from your previous location. After tapping my way through Alaskan wilderness for awhile Ive likely lost track of distance and have no idea where I am in relation to the original drop point.

Huge bug

Unfinished games doesn’t work. Puts you back at location 1/5 even though it says 2/5 or 3/5 in the top corner. Then if you guess the location of 1/5 it will still think you are at the one you should be at. This happened twice in one game.
1st location i got right it was new zealand. 2nd and 3rd i got right as well. 4th I knew was somewhere in washington but then I had to go do something so i took a break. I come back, hit unfinished games and there I am in new zealand again - same location as map 1 - and I can move freely around, yet it says map 4/5. I guessed new zealand but then it says im actually in washington US like I initially thought, thousands of miles away. 0 points for that one.
Next map is somewhere in Asia. I move around a bit then I have to go do something again. I come back, hit unfinished games and im in that same spot in new zealand yet again. So I guess south korea because I learned from my mistake (apparently didnt learn enough though because the same bug happened twice) and it says i was in tokyo, got like 2000 points because i had to rely on the small amount of info i gathered before i had to take a break.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the feedback and detailed report. In case you are still experiencing this, it would be great if you can send this on as well to app@geoguessr.com and we can look further into it. Thanks in advance! /Filip

Not worth it

I would play this game all the time if the app version was like the browser version & let you choose maps other than the whole freaking world.

Even so, I love the game so much I paid $3/month and stuck to the browser version, until it got so gd glitchy I couldn’t take it anymore. I’ll be walking along and then suddenly it freezes, I have to refresh & the map starts over or disappears. Sometimes you can double click far ahead on the map to move quickly forward, but other times you can only use the arrows to inch forward, which is not fun when the game drops you in the middle of nowhere. If you come to an intersection of more than 2 roads, the arrows overlap & it’s impossible to go in certain directions.

The audacity to charge a subscription fee & provide paying customers with either an incredibly limited app or a clunky, glitchy browser game. I’m a huge map nerd & I adore the concept, but I just canceled my subscription because the execution is so bad. If they add all the features to the app, I’ll give them my $3.00 again.
