Disappointing, would be so simple if it had a mapping function even just a link to Google maps would be great, but the thing I can't fathom is why you would stop me being able to copy names , so I could look out up on a map. Renders it useless. Sorry

There is no mapping, or even the basic ability to copy information from the screen. Uninstalled.

Would be very helpful to have a (configurable) link to a mapping website or app, like google maps, when looking at the details of an summit.

Cool little app for identifying nearby SOTA peeks. Really needs a maps link to official geocoordinates.

Great app! Time to activate.

Useless without a map view

Installed and tried new version. It seems to work! I thought the app had some map functionality, or integration with Google Maps. I'm not currently an active SOTA person, but it is in my bucket list, so this is a start for me. Thanks!

Added one star, our summits are listing except our favourite Limpopo one: Ga-Monaasenamoriri ZS/LP-053 which is not listing.

Finally got ver 18.08.12 to D/L to my device (I kept getting 08.05 with same problems). Now all works as it did before. Thanks for making the changes to get it working again, and for the quick replies to my posts describing the issues I was having - much appreciated!!

Been wanting to do some SOTA and once I figured out how to give the app location permission it looks like it'll be a lot easier then sotamaps on the Android. Thanks. Love your apps.

Very straightforward and easy to use app. I had an issue installing on my new Lenovo tablet, but an email to the author was promptly answered and it turned out I had neglected to set the permissions correctly.

Works great. I like that it shows me the distance to the next summit, great for planning my next adventure.

Will not open. Keeps crashing and asking to send report

App Will Not Open. Keeps Crashing On Me

A. G. u. Jan 10, 2017     

Thaks for the update.

A. G. u. Sep 7, 2015     

Doesn't seem to harvest up to date data from SOTA. Activations listed can be quite old.

A. G. u. Aug 30, 2015     

Option to map lat/lon of the point would make it 5 star. That being said, the app works as expected and looks good doing it.

Now with updated database. Very fast response to email request. Thanks

Excellent app for both activators and chasers as well as a great way to introduce amateur radio operators (hams) unfamiliar with one of the newest and most exciting Activities in amateur radio. Great fun and challenging new aspects of our fascinating pastime. The world of SO TA can also excite the non ham since it is an outdoor activity that would appeal to the outdoor sportsman as well as other people unfamiliar with new and different activity ham radio needs to continue expanding.

With the auto locate on I get the information I need to identify SOTA opportunities close by. Does exactly what I expected!

A. G. u. Sep 19, 2013     

...or even better provide a link to Maps or the like. Nice to have the closest summits show up.

A. G. u. Jan 26, 2013     

Fantastic app easy to use works a treat i also use the excellent repeater app by the same guys .... Thanks great effort and free ! 73 simon

Distance filter should be freely editable. Putting a 200 mile/kilometer limit on the distance, ruins the app!

KEEPS CRASHING! CAN'T USE IT! UNINSTALLED
