Pros and cons of Elevation Chart - Draw Profile View by Touchs app for iPhone and iPad

Elevation Chart - Draw Profile View by Touchs app good for

It lacks the ability to record our research and export them by email included pictures Thank to improve that
I love the app but at the same time could use a few improvements. Its great for when Im looking to go hike a new location or Mtb a new mountain or just wanna no some useless information
I have been using the map to show Guests at our hotel how to get around. They find the arial view very helpful. Great App
Clear satellite views. Easy to use. Accurate elevations. I use it to find elevations of unpublished airstrips. Approximate street address appears in the box when you measure elevations between two points.

Some bad moments

App crashes when I press locator button. Accuracy is out by 20 feet. Fix it or refund me.
No info provided to show proper use of app. The way i think it should work does not, so it is useless to me and a total waste of money.
So I open the app this morning and the first time I touch the icon I get an error message. " over query quota try again tomorrow " This is first time I received this message. Huge disappointment. ☹️
Could really use this app, but it crashes so often I just find it not worth the hassle.
Does not work. Never allows pin drops. Will be seeking a refund. Got one star because I have no choice in order to post the review.
App doesnt work. Cant place pins and get an error says daily quota reached try tomorrow? No in app purchases? Older app. Dont buy
