Theodolite for Negative User Reviews
✓ DisappointedLacking Options for the Price. Not sure why the app name needs to be included in the file name when using the Prefix and Date option..Version: 9.0.3
✓ Cool but lacks full calibrationBrilliant idea but it has no calibration for horizon level only the accelerometer so for me the target viewing square always shows off level. I know it's not my iPhone as it works fine on the level bubble programs which have calibration. Like in any survey it's not going to work if you can't get the theodolite level in the horizontal axis first. Sort that and it's a 5 star..Version: 0
✓ Can be better.It’s ok...but can be better..Version: 6.1.2
✓ Good app needs more featuresI use this app for the Telecommunications field because of the time stamp it includes in the pictures. I like the app but I do have a couple of suggestions. 1. We should be able to perform a reverse azimuth with the app. 2. We should be able to access both cameras. Sometimes pictures are taken in tight places and it requires me to look at the screen to ensure its in focus. 3. We should be able to move the timestamp in the picture itself, or when taking the picture it should move automatically when holding the phone vertically. 4. We should be able to use the existing buttons on the phone to take pictures. Sometimes Im over 200ft on a tower and it is often difficult to hold and take a picture with one hand while fearing dropping my phone. I believe these additions would be very beneficial. I do like the App and I do find it very useful..Version: 5.0
✓ No updatesI agree I gave had no bugs to report. But how about innovation? Can you say that you shouldn’t provide new or expanded capability. When people pay for a licensed software they support development of innovation. Just to keep up with hardware and firmware updates and bug fixes is not being innovative. This must be the first perfect application that doesn't need updates to keep current with the iOS. No updates since 2015. One stars because I like the app but it needs to stay current with hardware and OS changes..Version: 6.0
✓ Poor guide for lay userNo simple how to use guide to provide a survey of land area and topography surely you should be able to record multiple heights position and draw similar to measure facility . Assumes user semi professional ..Version: 8.2.2
✓ ExcellentI use this app my mapping project. To measure distant, direction & thickness of stratas, etc.... When measuring height (thickness), it import to make sure the angle in question is not too large. In the case of high cliffs, move away from the cliff. Use larger horizontal distance. For UK grid reference, it is accurate to a kilometre grid. This app will not be able to locate 100 meter grid with high accuracy. For higher scale (1:5000), it is better to use a GPS device. The instructions are clear. It is best to read each instruction and practise each on the ground one by one. Overall, it helps me with my project. I would recommend it to my friends..Version: 4.0.1
✓ Range finder rubbishAt 9 meter range finder say iam 61 meter Do not waste your time or money I like a refund.Version: 5.0
✓ Problem with IPhone CompassI think the Theodolite app is very well designed. However, it relies on the compass in the iPhone 7 plus to be accurate. That's a big problem! All iPhone 7 plus phones have a worthless compass in them... I can't use the Theodolite app for anything real because all of the data that would need an accurate compass heading is wrong by incredible amounts. If you Google the compass issue on iPhone 7, you'll see everyone has pretty much the same issue and only Apple can fix it but they don't have much interest! So... Theodolite is good, maybe on other phones other than 7's... not useful on a 7 plus..Version: 6.1
✓ Problem has been resolved .Now my camera won’t allow pictures to be sent to the phone. iOS has not been changed on my I Phone. Great up date!!!!.Version: 9.0.3
✓ Why do the cross hairs move?!?!This is driving me insane - I take snapshots with this app, lining up the object in the crosshairs, but when I look back at these snapshots in the album, the crosshairs are nowhere near the object? Not at all centred on what was on screen..Version: 6.0
✓ Excellent application.It worked 3 times , excellent for what it can do in tech details but when it fails after 3 uses. Just freezes on startup every time. Not a good sign..Version: 3.0
✓ Data logging not workingWhen I log data, copy, then mail it I get the picture and point that the app saw when I hit the copy button. Disappointing.Version: 8.2.2
✓ Great but needs an updateThis app is useful when traveling outdoors but this version doesn't work well with iPad...Version: 3.1.1
✓ Altitude not accurateIf could try it before buy I wouldnt have had. Waste of money. Altitude doesnt include decimals and is not sensitive (made a trial with 2 meters difference and didnt move).Version: 6.0
✓ Duped by free trial adI was very disappointed when I thought I was getting a free trial and found they had charged me £5.99 immediately from my Paypal account. Although it looks like quite an excellent piece of software I never got the chance to make up my own mind before being charged. That’s just not right and they should take down the free trial offer if they can’t abide by it..Version: 7.0
✓ Great appVery useful application however I download an update from my iPad and it wouldn't work so I deleted it and then tried to reload I need to find it wasn't clear annoying that I have to buy twice.Version: 6.1
✓ Crashes current iOS version.I used to love this app, but twice now it has totally crashed my phone and rendered it unusable. It drains the battery in such a way that the phone acts as if it were totally dead. I started using it at a 75% charge and within 5 minutes my phone said it was out of battery and would not turn back on. Once I plugged my phone in it then said that the charge level was at 67%. Strange right? DO NOT PURCHASE THIS APP UNTIL THERE IS A UPDATE!! I will be looking for a replacement for this one as soon as I submit this review..Version: 5.0
✓ Great appAn excellent app. Works fantastic. Auto correction for magnetic to true north is a good useful feature..Version: 6.0
✓ As advertisedThe developers have provided a stable application. Simply, it works as advertised. I awarded only 4 stars to allow room for improvement..Version: 6.1
✓ Spurious orientation measurementsI’m a relatively new user and I was working through validating and verifying the dip and azimuth data displayed. I used Apple’s Compass app and Field Move to check my measurements. I found that Theodolite was producing spurious values. What’s more, while checking these values I found that the other programs would start to produce spurious values after I initiated Theodolite and switched between them. I restarted the phone and Compass and Field Move were reliably showing correct readings. But as soon as Theodolite starts, the values become spurious. Additionally, when I lay my phone down, the tilt values jump around all over the place. The look and feel of the app is excellent, please address this critical issue and I would be more than happy to increase my rating! At the moment, it is unusable..Version: 8.2
✓ Can’t load theodolite for watchI have paid for this app ( twice), but it does not appear either on phone or on watch, but in App Store it confirms that it has been purchased. I can’t even delete it and try to start again because it just does not appear anywhere. Can someone help?.Version: 9.0.1
✓ Way to technical to have no instructions.I just want an app that can give me a > b distances and a>height with enough accuracy to be useful and instructions to be used. Fair enough, this isn't actually the fault if this app but I can't get it to deliver anything with verifiable accuracy. It either says something about long lay being the same or the distances returned are so blatantly off I must be so blatantly off in my use or expectations..Version: 0
✓ Cannot turn Theodolite camera offI currently bought the iPhone X’s Max and just happened to download the Theodolite camera app but for some reason I cannot exit the camera feature off the main screen. I have to turn the entire phone off and restart my iPhone Xs max to get back on my homepage. Currently the app does not allow you to swipe the camera function off the main page. This is definitely a bug that needs to be fixed as I cannot use this app until then..Version: 6.1.2
