Pros and cons of Polarsteps - Travel Tracker app for iPhone and iPad

Polarsteps - Travel Tracker app good for

I just wanted this exact thing to keep a memory of my Road trip in Australia and share it with others. Simply great
Very useful. Tracks your position even offline with little impact on battery life. It will automatically suggest steps, as it determines where youve been. Photos can be added offline and will be added once connected.
Fun, easy to use, i was able to add the trips i had before. Loved it.
Best App for traveling and staying in touch with family and friends!
Perfect for all visitors/friends/ family-members to follow route of my world-trip
great design, simple but super functional, fun and definitely high potential for a bigger impact in the app world! This is the first application in a long time Im really enjoying to use daily. It not only helps you to remember where youve been, also others can follow you in live time. Hats off dudes.

Some bad moments

Very good app! But not working anymore since last update Too bad
Why is this app constantly using my location in background, although I didnt start tracking my trip?
Got this from a recommendation on a travel forum. Perfect price (free!) and really useful. I use this in lieu of a journal with the benefit of adding photos. I set this up to start on the day of departure of our year long trip and in the last minute flurry of departure, forgot all about it. A few days into our trip I opened it up to see it tracking us which was great! It detects when we stop for a length of time and we can enter it as a stop on our journey. You can also add stops along the way. I initially set it up as private but then opened it as public so my family could follow us. I think this is a great app! If pressed to submit some criticism, the only thing Ive found is that the gps doesnt always detect exactly where I am and I have to enter it manually. Other than that its about as close to perfect as can be. Love the map view and the list view and that you can switch easily between the two.
I love the concept. Using the app is easy and as it grows in functionality I am sure it will improve and broaden the interface options. I would like the search function to identify places like hotels but I am sure that will all come soon enough.
