  • Nice app & feature request

    This app works well and is fun and interesting. One feature request would be to add a setting for a compass ‘offset’. My device has a bogus compass that I cannot calibrate properly (tried many things short of buying a new phone) and if I could just add in a correction factor that would be great!
  • I want to love this app

    This app is simple, easy to use and is often updated. It is a quintessential app core to my best apps.

    This is a fantastic app!! As another reviewer said, it’s a joy to use. I pull this app out constantly while hiking and I know all the peaks that I can see in my area now. I love this app!! Can’t recommend it enough!

    Got this because I live in central California right by the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range off of the 99 and 5 Freeways. Where I am at, you can see the string of 14ers, starting with Mt. Langley. The app does NOT detect any of them. Also, was just on the 97 in NorCal with Mt. Shasta literally hulking right next to me on the Freeway. No dice!!! It did not detect it. It has only ever picked up little mountains that you are close to. I thought maybe I was too far away, but when I was right next to Shasta and the app didn’t detect it, I was pretty much done with it.

    Peak Finder has been my go to application now for identifying mountain peaks all over the world both on the ground and in ‘ far away’ locations. Its cool to take a picture of a mountain scene and then, later on, identify the mountain peaks. The application has served well both on the ground and remotely in South America, Africa and North America. Keep up the good work!
