I appreciate the effort of people making the app but it is quite buggy. For starters, the full map download consistently failed no matter how many times I tried. Even the small map got downloaded after several attempts. When you decide the clear the app cache, it would start calculating and then just freezes.
Can't download Full Maps. Once that's possible it'll be 5 stars nonetheless
Very outdated and misleading information.
Extremely useful and easy to navigate.
Downloading to my SD memory card is crucial. Without that, the app isn't all that useful.
Love this app for all things Yosemite! #yosemiteambassador #findyourpark
Good informative app
Limited cell coverage or wireless in the park. This app let us check all the sites we had pre-selected. Found a few of the GPS coordinates weren't accurate though.
This app downloads frequently for hours at a time. Seems to be malfunctioning.
Super battary eater. Can`t not download maps.useless
Super app learned the smallest details of the park.
Great for Destination Planning and information.
Can pick horseback, despite nothing being there apparently.
Great tool for trip planning!
Downloaded Chimani Yosimite and found the elevations are in METERS! Could not find a setting anyhere to change to feet. How stupid.....I am uninstalling Yosimite and National Parks....right now.
The social networking integration is awful! I can't even leave a comment without tricking your app and even then it doesn't work. Also, allow me to search around Yosemite and add some categories like climbing and scrambling.
It was extremely helpful, while planning our trip!
I can't download the map and I can't fully download everything else, even when connected to WiFi. :(
I've tried deleting and reinstalling the app several times. I've let it run its course "unpacking database." Very good possibility I'm doing something wrong. Hope that's the case so I can change the 1 star. Maybe it hasn't been updated for s6 yet
The previous version worked but now I am unable to download maps. Please for before the holiday weekend when we are going. Thank you!
Good to have when there is limited cell and wifi reception in the park village to none depending on your carrier. When you leave the village for the wilderness most places it is no cell and wifi. The maps need more magnification. Its a great stand alone ref
Great descriptions of the many things on offer in Yosemite. The offline maps were very helpful.
Must app to have for Yosemite enthusiasts
Used this app for a first visit to the park. It was a so helpful and really enhanced or visit to this beautiful park.
Great for newbies. Nice for veterans too.
Fix the font size for galaxy S4.
This application is very well put together. I use it before each trip to go camping with my sons in the Yosemite area. All the information I could need is available right here. I love that I can check for the open dates on any campsite in the park. I also love being able to pull up detailed photographs and maps of the areas I plan to visit. Simply put, this application is just a wealth of information about Yosemite. If you're an avid camper or hiker, you'd be hard pressed to find a better resource.
Even after downloading the full maps, which took FOREVER (because the maps did not download in the background, as soon as you touch the screen it stops for your phone to do something else.) on top of that, the map has serious drag when zooming in and out, why? If everything has been downloaded already? Lastly, maps of all the hiking routes etc would be useful.
It inforces user to sign perk first with membership fee. This makes the app useless. Don't install it.
