    It sounds great and I tried it out. Unfortunately, as mentioned by many people posting feedback, it just crashes and is unusable. Otherwise it would have been of great value to those in the field.

        1997? Not impossible, there were PDAs around then

        • Hehe, I was alluding more about if the dev has such great experience why is the app such a failure in terms of crashing and thus being unusable.

      • "This application was designed and written by a professional software engineer with 20 years of experience, writing mobile applications for the land survey profession."

        Fixed by the inclusion of a comma.

      • This app looks like it was written 20 years ago - the UI is terrible. I tried using this app but the usability makes me want to neg this "deal".
        Giving an app away free isn't a deal for users when it clearly isn't ready to be launched.

    Worth adding to your catalogue even if it doesn't work now… A future update may fix it?

    • Maybe several updates to fix this app. Crashed 5 times in a few seconds. That's how bad it is on my S7 Edge.

        Hasn't crashed once on my Sony Xperia X performance which runs a very vanilla version of Android 7.11. I just cant figure out how to drop markers for area calculations.

        EDIT: Sort of figured it out now … Still hasn't crashed.

  • Thanks for sharing the insights.

  • Neg because after trying it several times on different phones, it crashes and insane amount of times. Probably the worst app I've encountered on the Play Store. I doubt it has ever sold at $13.
