Like it!

I downloaded this app because the CA state park I was visiting said it was being tested. So I gave it a try. I probably didn’t use it to its full ability. I’m a map geek and really liked the map part. Keep in mind, we drove into an area without cell coverage and the only part of the map we could see is where we had zoomed into from earlier in the day. I like that it keeps showing my location even when not in cell service area.

A bug: I have to tap the icon 3 times before it will open. I tried to locate tech support contact info and couldn’t find anything inside the app. In the App Store there is a link to a website but again, couldn’t find any contact info.

UPDATED: Received Developer Response

Update: The developer reached out to me and I was able to go into detail about what had not worked well. They addressed each of my concerns and by the time I contacted them, they had already fixed some of the issues I mentioned in my review, and were in the process of following up on others. So, while I think the app still needs work, I’m changing the review to 5 stars because I believe they’re actively working to fix it and make it work the way it’s intended. I should note that I’m not using the app for myself but I only used it to participate in the Yosemite Wilderness Camping Study. Original Review: Title: Annoying and didn’t do what it said it would I was asked to participate in a study of camping in Yosemite wilderness. I told it the dates of my trip, but it sent me a notification every night from the time I consented to the study until I completed my trip. It said that I didn’t need cell service to be able to complete the questionnaires, and they could upload my responses when I was done, but when I was in the wilderness with no service, it didn’t work! Then, I tried to contact support but it requires me to have the Mail app which I deleted. Why can’t they just list an email address?

Developer Response ,

Hi Kdbeidbdj, sounds like you're experience was not great. The Yosemite Wilderness Camping Study is designed to work while offline, so we'd love to hear more about your particular experience.

If you're willing to provide more information, please reach out at visitors@outerspatial.com.

Five stars for effort, however…

Downloaded to use for the new & amazing Crosstown Trail in San Fran, and am very appreciative that both the app and the trail exist due to the selfless hard work of some very lovely people.

This is not an in-depth evaluation, just a hot take. The app is quite attractive. However the app is also a bit confusingly organized, and a bit glitchy (it has repeatedly crashed on two clean & updated devices).

I’ll add more specifics soon.

Developer Response ,

Hi Yowzoe, we'd love to hear more about what's confusing and acting glitchy for you. We work hard to make OuterSpatial as usable and stable as possible, and your feedback could help us tie up some loose ends! Could you send more detail about your experience to support@outerspatial.com? Thanks!
