  • Need ability to load 2 sections in a bundle

    By JCDrumKing
    I really do love the app and would not hesitate to give it five stars, but the inability to load and simultaneously activate multiple map sections in a bundle is very frustrating. I want to plan my thru hike and save planned daily routes. Naturally a hiker is unlikely to end their day where a particular map section ends — we will cross into the next section before stopping. The inability to see and use two sections at once is limiting. Obviously a workaround would be to save two separate routes for those days, but then you’re doing hiker math to know the Real mileage, elevation details etc for the second part. I read somewhere that this limitation might be due to performance concerns. Maybe make the option available only when all data has been downloaded for offline use? That would work for me and my review rating would immediately go to 5 stars.

    It’s complicated and hard to figure out. I’ll explore YouTube a bit but I just want to create our own trip with way points, camp sites and water locations on the AT? Why didn’t that easy to do? Just want a long weekend hike and can’t seem to figure out how to build my own.

  • Epic trail failure

    I’ve used farout for several years now on a few trails. In July I hiked the wonderland trail and my app wouldn’t respond, the screen would freeze, and it wouldn’t record my route. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app, same problem. Luckily my hiking partner also had the app and was having no issues. I meant to contact farout back then and ask for a refund for that trail since it wasn’t cheap and was totally useless. I forgot. Now I’m preparing to hike another section of the Appalachian Trail and the app is having the same issue. My screen is frozen and there’s nothing that I can do about it. Not only that, but FarOut has not even made it easy for you to contact Support. There are a bunch of tutorial and frequently ask questions but no way it seems to contact the developer to get help directly. This is obviously case in point why you can’t rely on technology alone and should always have a backup. I’ve loved this app for years but this glitch that seems impossible to fix is ruining it. Please make support easier to contact.

  • Best app for long trails

    This is the app you need for long trails. Most detailed helper you can find.

  • Expensive, update sucks

    Update sucks. Difficult to navigate. Too expensive. Profiting off of community sourced, public land data is super slimy. Use a free app like opentrails

  • It’s still good but needs update

    I haven’t seen a recent comment and my waypoints disappeared from the map but it’s still been great at navigating me to where I needed to go. My public comments don’t show up

  • Can’t Hike without this

    61 yr old hiker here. I can’t believe it took me this long to get the Far Out app and maps. What a blessing.

  • Not user friendly.

    Not sure how it even works. Type in great Smokey mountains national park and nothing comes up. If I’m combining trails or making my own route how does it work.

  • Great app sorry customer service

    I have lost one of of my purchased trails and I can not get customer service to even respond to my request to restore my missing app.
