Ratings and Reviews
Awesome app
It is nice that you don’t have to deal with POI categories. You can just search for categories like restaurants or for individual names or addresses on the search bar.
I also like that they look around feature works both when you’re stationary and moving.
Great app with a lot of potential
This is a great app, and I love that it is free. One suggestion I do have though is to allow the user to set a range for points of interest searching, say within 50 or so miles, maybe not quite that much but something like that.
Developer Response ,
Hi Bryant, thank you for the review and suggestion. I am sending your suggestion to set a range for POI search to our product team. We are always looking for feedback and ideas, so if you have any more, please send them to support@goodmaps.com.
Awesome app!
I really love the independence this app gives me. I look forward to when users are able to put in customize points of interest!
