Fun Simple App

App is a basic compilation of Nat’l Parks, Monuments, Historic Sites, etc. Map is helpful to see what’s close & list has info that’s useful. I’d give 5 stars if user could change the color of the pins to document what sites have been visited (past or present) & what dates. Cute app icon- don’t change!

Disappointing; inadequate, corrections needed and very basic

The app itself is interesting for those interested in the National Park system, but offers only rudimentary information. It also needs to be updated and corrections need to be made; I noticed that in the geographic location of Vicksburg Military Park (Mississippi) it is mislabeled as the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, which is in Washington, D.C. Also a new park in Waco Texas has not been added yet even though at this point it has been open a couple of months. This was after 5 minutes of looking at the app, so it's hard to believe that these are the only mistakes it contains.I'm sure there were good intentions with this app but unfortunately it is not yet ready for prime time.

Downloaded the most recent updates for this program, and now it only displays a map with no parks indicated, and the search function does not work. Previously, could list parks near current location, that is no longer available. Has lost all utility.Deleted and re-installed, so I am now able to search and use the map, but changes from the previous version make the app less useful, without color coding of map pins by type of park, and helpful links for each park have been removed. Hopefully the next version will restore these changes.
