Theodolite HD for Negative User Reviews

Could be good, but ...Potentially useful, but a few major problems: The screen is upside down in landscape mode, and it won't flip! No option for DM.M in position instead of DMS. No instructions how to activate rangefinder, you tap the cross wires..Version: 2.6.3

Great App, but offline maps are very expensiveI've always liked this app for site survey of local obscura and the like. Since they added the offline map function I thought it would be a great hiking add (like a GPS). I like using my iPad as a GPS even though I know its big. the large screen is really nice for looking at the local terrain. The capability to download offline maps is very attractive so I bought 100,000 tile credits for $15 to download maps for hiking. I defined the area of one local park/hiking are to download and found that 100,000 tiles was not enough! I did a test and found I need about 10 tiles just to cover an area the size of my house and yard. A fine app but does not make dollars and sense for the average hiker. For $100 I can buy detailed maps for my GPS that cover NM, AZ, UT, and CO. At Theodolite prices, $100 would buy offline maps for about 1 county.Version: 5.0

Theodolite hd appDoes not work I want my money back App Store should close this app.Version: 4.0

Not for everyone..!Not for anyone, who like myself lives in the UK..! Read up on this App, which had some great reviews, but it was not until I’d bought and paid for it, with a condition that I once I’d opened it “you will no longer be eligible to cancel this purchase”...I found that is purely a USA based database. So a totally useless purchase for me, with no chance of refund...!.Version: 6.0

Great appI've had this app for a few weeks and recognise its power. I just need to consciously make more opportunity to use it..Version: 2.6.1

HelpfulA app itself is good with many useful features. It doesn’t rotate when you change the screen orientation which is frustrating. Topo maps are an additional in app purchase which is disappointing. The HD version is separate to the iPhone version which requires yet another purchase. All of which is a let down when purchasing a premium app like this, cross device functionality would be a beneficial inclusion and expected for the price..Version: 7.0

Still no universal app with this new versionAfter nearly a year of development, the iPhone and iPad apps are still separate apps. With iCloud becoming standard amongst developers this could have been hugely beneficial for this app. As of now, if you want datum packs, you need to pay twice for both of your devices. If you want team tracking, pay twice. If you add markers on your phone, you won't see them on your iPad. And so on.... The fit and polish of the app is superb. I feel confident that my measurements are as accurate as the device can give. Nonetheless, there is no excuse for not merging both apps. They look exactly the same. It's not like there was a different tablet UX..Version: 6.1.2

SteveTheodolite will not cloud restore to my new iPhone 5s, I purchased it with IPad and still retain the E mail receipt..Version: 4.0

Pay and PayI'm not real happy I paid for this on my iPad and would have to pay again to use it on my iPhone 6+. Also have to pay for maps, pay for state plane coordinates, pay, pay, pay.....Version: 5.0

Problem with iPhone XHi, I have encountered a problem using this app on the iPhone X. After using the Theodolite app(version 6.0) to snap a photo, I cannot get out of the app unless I power off the iPhone X. I cannot use the swipe mechanism to exit the app. There is no button on the iPhone X for exiting. So I am stuck in the Theodolite app until I shutdown and restart the iPhone. This is truly a pain. Can this be fixed? Thanks.Version: 6.0

DisappointingI quickly became very disappointed with this app. It is let down by poor sensors on the iPad. Most times the compass is only accuracy us reported as within 30 degrees which makes it useless for establishing known bearings. Best case is within 20 degrees so still hopeless. The underlying maps do not display any property/title boundaries. Stupid me assumed theodolite would use Google maps which show title boundaries, however it uses the inferior apple maps. So forget outbound using it to do a rough check of you boundaries. Cannot plot bearing and distance between previously marked locations other than A to B which continuously get overwritten. Alternatively it will tell you distance bearing from the device to a single saved location. However this angle seemingly always references true North regardless of you current heading reference setting. So useless for walking around a boundary, plotting the corners because you cannot go back and use points establish bearings and distances between points. So mainly eye candy and I will not use it much at all..Version: 4.0
