I like the app and it works fine. Found it works best on my tablet. The popups get in the way, hoping there is an ad free paid version soon.

On a phone target helps. Inner circle needs to be thinner, less intrusive. Ability to change color of target to stand out against map. Perimeter measurement without adding final marker on top of first.

Don't run or allow programs that depend on it working to run. Worthless!! Not even worth a quarter or sliver of a star.

App won't let me drop pins to calculate distance (which is the purpose of the app). In addition, that stupid blue target is in the way. If disabled, prompt to enable the target constantly obstructs view.

As a measurement tool it's not yet up to Maps Ruler Pro (by another developer) but having 45 degree view is just great and a no-brainer purchase if that's important. It will be an easy five stars when 45 degree is a toggle option, points can be placed by tapping the screen and, ideally, with predicted addresses functionality. Requests in. :-) Oh, and super response from the developer. Thank you so much Thomasz!

Doesn't detect your location. Zooming is a pain. Manual set points to measure. (Which most all map apps have anyway) No ability to set a radius. Not much use, but does what it claims I guess. Not worth keeping for me. uninstall. Update: got email saying devs responded. No response. Oh well. Lowering to one star cuz I just saw the real apps this one tried to copy but failed.

changing the unit into meters, will always display miles. and when reseting points, it will reset to default map location. it will not stay on what your current position

No current location, must manually find it every time!. Need measurement in meters not just kilometers for better accuracy
