Boat Ramps for Negative User Reviews

Search function??This was my go to app for boat ramp locations until the June ‘17 update. After losing the “search” function, it is useless to me. Restore the search function, make it simple again! This app went from a “Five Star to a Zero Star” with the update..Version: 2.01

Very Helpful but LackingThe App is helpful but a lot of boat ramps are not on it. there is a ramp 1 mile from my house that has been around since the 1980s and isnt listed. but it did show a couple that no one knew of..Version: 0

CrashDang thing keeps on crashing.Version: 1.51

Not working!!!App crashes when you tap by location. It says it can't determine my location.Version: 1.51

UselessBoat ramps are not boat docks! This app shows every dock! You have to zoom in and after 5 times still no ramps then the ones I know about anyway! It gets old quick and has no information about the ramp! Don't waste your time on this app! Good idea, bad execution!.Version: 2.01

AARGGHHWorthless. Many duplicates. Location search doesn't work. Should be banned..Version: 1.51

Great Concept but Lousy AppAfter using the app for awhile I found that it is very inaccurate in the ramp locations. It's as far off as several miles. Now the app won't load at all. It keeps saying an error has occurred. This is a great concept but needs alot of work..Version: 1.51

UselessDoes not show boat ramps, don’t waste your time..Version: 2.01

Boat rampsI used to love this app prior to the recent update. Without the search feature you have to pinch the map to expand or decrease the area of interest. Having a small screen iphone makes this update almost too frustrating to use!.Version: 2.01

90% inacurateIn NJ Great Bay Area Great concept unfortunately the location and functionality of the rams are not accurate. There should be a button to report or at least suggest a change in map..Version: 2.10

Itz ok...expected betterAs a real fisherman by lineage (i.e. fresh & saltwater; bait, Lure & Fly fishing) I expected more based on the reviews. The developers need to add the option for users to add public boat ramps. I know that option would greatly improve the application. Fisherman to fisherman, I rate this application a 3 star. But as someone with iPhone apps it's good..Version: 0

App does not workI know why fisherman are lazy and do not know how to navigate.Version: 1.5

Boat RampsVery poor coverage. I live in central Illinois and know of at least 5 ramps within 10 miles of my home .... the app shows one. It doesn't even mention some at major lakes in our area.... Great idea, but I'd have better luck finding a local ramp by asking someone! Update; Wow, I was very excited to see that the update added many more boat ramps in my area.... Just one problem.... I'm pretty sure the Sangchris Lake Ramp is not in the middle of a cornfield in Buffalo! It's in Pawnee.... Dudes, great idea, lousy implementation !.Version: 0

Super wrongThis app is super wrong is showing boat ramp where there is none.Version: 3.0

Horrible"Unable to load/get content". Total waste of time. Would rate zero if possible..Version: 1.51

Doesn't work but it is a fantastic ideaI just downloaded this today. And every time I try and do a search it gives me error messages. I hope that means that they're working on the site and not that they have just abandoned it..Version: 1.51

Needs some tweakingAny app like this is only as good as its data. This is where common sense comes into play If you see a pin in the middle of a lake, on the beach, or on dry land, you'll have a heck of a time trying to launch your boat there. Otherwise good app..Version: 0

None in South AustraliaNot good enough. Closest one is 400 miles away..Version: 0

UselessAbosolutly useless in australia.Version: 0

Not workingOn the last update my app no longer works when i touch by current location it dosnt show a list and when i touch map all it kicks out was great when i first got it now its worthless please fix it.Version: 1.5

Good conceptGood concept poor execution. App has so much potential. Ramps are there but how about ability to add more info/ pics. New update has just gone haywire!.Version: 1.5

WorthlessJust downloaded this spp and the 2 closest boat ramps to my home were not even shown, and the one that was shown is non-existant in the middle of a campground. I guess you get what you pay for!.Version: 0

Not as good as it could be, much less useful than it should beI am disappointed with this App. In my area of Canada (Toronto region), multiple boat ramps are missing from the listing. Adding my own entry requires me to know and type in the exact latitude and longitude of the location. It does NOT allow me to make use of the built in GPS on the iPhone 3Gs to establish the new ramp location. It doesn't even allow me to use the iPhone map application to show and select the location. More annoying, the new entries are NOT immediately added to the ramp list in the application. My new entry is merely submitted to the app seller for future addition to their database! You can not search by the name of the Ramp, nor the Canadian Postal Code. The App always shows ramp locations on both sides of the US/CAN border - this should be selectable. The Settings panel does not allow you to choose miles or kilometres for distance to search from current location. It doesn't even show that the Search radius is in miles. When you search by City, it still shows ramps outside the city, if they are within the Search radius. Information regarding the actual launch ramps is minimal. No info on ramp condition, number of lanes, parking facilities, cost to use ramp or parking, operating hours or seasons/dates, water depth, dock space, washrooms, etc. No info regarding how old the information for each ramp location is. Launch ramps can change status over time, sometimes they need repair, or are no longer available for use. No photos of the launch area, but it will show you a map view of just one ramp location at a time, and you can turn on satellite view, which uses the regular map app on the iPhone. It could be much better. It needs to have more complete and more useful data regarding the actual ramps and related facilities, better usability, better user interface, more flexibility for categorizing and finding ramps. You should be able to add your own ramps to the list on your own iPhone, and have them immediately be included. I did not find a way to tag favourite ramps, or mark/exclude ramps which were not of interest (unusable, not suitable for my boat, etc). A method of ranking ramps in terms of maintenance, facilities, parking, costs, vehicle security and so on would be welcome. Rankings of others, and my own personal ratings for the ramps I know and use..Version: 0

Great idea, horribly doneThe idea behind this app is good, and it would be very useful if the information were accurate. I tested it looking for ramps near where I live (Olympia, WA). Virtually every location had some major problem. Addresses were wrong, lat/long locations off. Some locations are not even near a body of water. One mini storage facility, miles from water, was listed as having a ramp. Some ramps were duplicate entries, with different names. I don't know where they got the data, but it obviously hasn't been checked. The features of the app are fine, but the information is so wrong as to make it useless. I can't see myself relying on this app to find a ramp, it is totally misleading, at least in my area..Version: 1.51

Nice conceptThe idea is a good start. Unfortunately, your submission is reviewed and re-written and omissions cannot be corrected later. I have re-submitted my info and the app fails to reflect my changes..Version: 1.41

More InformationI like the concept of the app but would like to see more information ie fuel station, bait shop, short term or long term parking, fee or free ramp charge, shower & boat boat rinse facilities to name a few. Adding these as icons below the name of the ramp site would be helpful when going to new areas..Version: 1.51

Like the ideaConcept is cool but shows mainly bait and tackle stores mixed in with the occasional ramp. Not great..Version: 1.51

So-soThis app has the potential but not the motivated programers! Needs a major update of accurate information! Would be the most useful app for a traveling sportsman you could find if the information was complete! We will see if they are after making a great app or not..Version: 1.41

Needs some workOverall, it is a good app however, it will list the same ramp several times. I have 5 useable ramps in my home town but the app lists over 27 ramps... This app needs to be able to eliminate the doubles some how... either at the user level or developer level..Version: 0

Fishing guideComplete waste of money. None of the municipal or Dept of Natural Resources landings that I use most often in Wisconsin are here..Version: 0

Getting betterGetting better more Perth ramps added.Version: 0

No good for AustraliaDoes not show any for Gold Coast which is dumb because there's dozens of them. Aussies don't waste your money on this..Version: 0
