Downloaded and tried to open, just to find out this is no longer free and usable without some sort of API. I don't want to create an API, just for this. Uninstalling this app.

After selecting a location a stupid arrow points at literally nothing and says "click install to continue" or something. Nothing to click on. Clicking anywhere removes the arrow and shows the previous screen. Useless, uninstalling.

Can't zoom in, poor image quality - and no way to find your location easily.

Ads take up the right 1/4 of the screen.

Massive addspace on side covers map color key. Would be great without the adds, but if they need them at least put them in a spot that is not needed.

Just downloaded this and I am already going to delete this because of the ad space that is very generous on the right side. wasted my time. none of the screenshots showed this. Hope this helps others who also do not like this.

Was OK before it required to get a GoogleMap API key due to price hike on Google's side which made it unaffordable for the creator to continue maintaining the App the way it was before. Uninstalled.

Works good on my Android, on my laptop it crashes as soon as it opens up.
