Lots of useful info, but lacks on technical side - the app is buggy. It took me 3 reinstalls and multiple experiments before I could switch the route. I still don't know what caused it to finally work, there's was no pattern.
Very useful and works great offline
The application is very helpful and precise. I hiked alone and it allowed me to feel secure. I could rely on it for the way, the accomodations and the food markets. Since I do not speak Turkish, it helped me a lot finding the number of the pensions and text them before arriving. The designer of the application gave me advices when I needed and mailed me when very recent modifications in the trail occured. The Lycian way is divine and it is worth hiking it with a reassured mind.
Satellite maps ensure you can never get lost, which is essential if you're not an expert hiker. Also nice to keep on you phone after your trip to remind yourself of a fantastic trip.
Great app and indispensable for walking the Likya Yolu. I walked alone and out of season - it would have been a disaster without this app! The path and signage was often very poor but was easy to get back on track using the offline navigation. The info on water sources, accommodation, services etc was also very useful. App had a few bugs which were a little annoying but was still usable. (E.g. if you click on a way point on the map, it wasn't possible to clear that selection and the map constantly jumped back to that way point. Had to restart app to clear it. Also wasn't possble to select alternative routes such that they were highlighted in the map with the associated way points listed in the 'home' area.)
Отличное приложение! Провел группу из 11 человек по ликийке, прошли 200км. С этой картой легко ориентироваться и планировать путешествие. Реком ендую!
I absolutely loved this app! I used it to walk the entire Lycian Way in April/May 2017 and found it indispensable. Due to re-routing of the trail, overgrowth and storm damage, the trail can be hard to follow in some sections. This app saved me a lot of time wandering around looking for trail markers, as I could just follow the direction indicated on the app. It was also very useful to know how far away the next water source was, as well as food and accomodation places in towns. The developer was also very responsive to feedback and trail updates. If you'd like the comfort of having something in addition to the trail markers to navigate this hike, I would definitely recommend this app.
This app is expensive and for me was an almost complete waste of money. The maps were available off-line, which was good, but despite the impression I had from the description, they did not integrate with the GPS on my phone (HTC One M9) so there was no indication of where you were on the route - fortunately another member of the group had a different app which did work with GPS! The instructions were good as far as they went but stopped at Kabak beach so other instructions were needed for the next sections. Unless /until the content is updated and the maps work with GPS, this app is definitely not worth it, in my opinion. Try another one ... I cannot even wait for an update to make it useful as I'm not likely to walk the Lycian way again (much as I'd like to!).
