Very powerful app but.

I commonly use arcGIS in my pc but for ipad TouchGIS app is extraordinary and it has no equal but i wish from the developers to add search in UTM units. Thank you and i will be grateful.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the kind words! You can indeed search using UTM coordinates. After tapping the search icon you should see a switched at the top of your keyboard that lets you choose different coordinate systems. Hope that helps!

So close…

I have been using this app in the field for about two years to make geologic maps. It had a lot of promise 2 years ago and the developers were available for bug fixes and improvement. The app is very powerful, and captures many of my field GIS needs. It has now been 1 year since they updated anything and they seem to no longer reply to service questions. Sadly it appears to be another unsupported zombie app. There are several bugs that are real issues with some of the functionality. I may continue to use it in the field but with limited capacity to avoid the bugs and issues. Its a shame because they were so close to building an ideal geologic mapping platform that we could roll out with colleagues and students. So if you are contemplating diving in I’ll just say that it still does many things well but there are some pretty serious bugs and apparently no prospect for improvement. However if you see substantial updates in the version history it might signal that the developers are actually reengaged with keeping this thing alive and viable. I hope they see these reviews and actually update Touch.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your feedback, we're glad to hear that the app is on the right track and sorry to hear that you weren't getting the level of service that you deserve. We recently brought on more support staff to ensure that issues like yours get the attention they need. We would love to hear more about the bugs you're experiencing as well as any thoughts you have for how we can improve the app in order to be the ideal geologic mapping platform for you. Please reach out to us again at support@touchgis.app so we can get to work on making the app better!

Can’t export data anymore

I have been a fan of these apps, upgrading to the newest versions and although there are sometimes glitches I’ve never had a complaint until now.

I no longer have the ability to export project points by CSV as of a few weeks ago. This has stopped my whole teams work progress right in its tracks. None of us can use it now.

I can appreciate that this problem may eventually be fixed, but it’s hard to rely on a program that could have such a crucial issue for so long. We have a lot of jobs to map and now we are currently looking for a new program.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We immediately began working on a fix for this issue when we became aware of it. That fix is now available in the most recent update. We understand your frustration and promise to do all we can to avoid issues like this going forward.
