US Public Lands App Reviews

Seems most of the folks writing negative reviews did not read the limitations of the app. If you know what you are buying, I think you will find this is an awesome app. Its not going to find a 100 acre parcel and says that up front. A square mile is 640 acres which is the stated accuracy.

The BLM parcels are not very accurate when compared to a actual map from the BLM. Small BLM parcels are missing. BLM parcels and private lands within the boundaries of CA State Parks are not shown.

Clean design and very responsive. Love that it can used offline.

Awesome!! Just what we needed to get us started boondocking!

What a handy app! Easy to use, and will be very useful for anyone who wants to take advantage of all that BLM land! Thank you so much for consolidating many different (and harder to read) maps, into a mobile resource. Once again, youve hit this one out of the park!

As full-time travelers who love to utilize public lands, we have been wishing this app existed for a long time. Now instead of searching through endless websites & maps, everything we want to know is all in one place. We love everything about this app from the choice of maps, to the numerous public land options, and even links to the public land websites. Would give it more than 5 stars if we could!

So pleased that this resource has been made available. Public lands often seem like a vague collection of boundaries & regulations. This app makes it clear (1) where the public lands are, (2) which agency oversees them, and (3) their boundaries. A beautiful must-have resource for boondockers, adventurers, wilderness lovers.

Been wanting something like this for years. A "must have" for everyone looking to camp on public lands.

As expected, Technomadia comes up with another great addition to Must Have apps for anyone traveling and looking for a spot to pull over and enjoy this great country of ours. Very few developers make apps that I will just buy. I do that with Technomadia, if they write it - I buy it as they are that good. Thank-you for filling a void in the RV/Camping/Travelers marketplace and lifestyle. Keep up the great work. You are appreciated in everything you do.

Thought this would be a good app to use for hiking fishing and hunting public land. Unfortunately, it is not even close to being accurate ad to the actual borders between public and private property. Dont know why anyone would find it useful without a reasonable degree of accuracy. If you trust it, you will likely end up trespassing on private land.

And easy to navigate. Great job.

I love that this app along with my iPads internal GPS capability can tell me at a glance if I am somewhere it is OK to stay overnight in my self-contained RV. I also love that Technomadia reads my mind then develops an app to fit my wishes.

Bought this due to a rave review by someone else. To me this is a work in progress and not finished yet. More of an intellectual curiosity app with crude definitions of space related to the map. When I try to figure out where this might be useful compared to other maps I just don’t come up with much. Campwhere, which I also own has similar boundary designations and also tells you where public campgrounds are located. Allstays also defines essentially the same things with a huge amount of useful data. This said, the app cost is very small and I don’t mind having it. But more info that is useful would be nice.

I always read the reviews BEFORE I purchase an app, but not in this case based on reviews from fellow RVers. A quick check of a BLM area near my home shows that the maps are not even close...miles off in places. You could never count on this app to determine if you werent trespassing on private property, so what good is it? It is no more helpful than any other sources that generally locate Govt property. Sorry, but I need my money back.

I havent used any other app of this type to compare it to, but I use this app all the time and it works for me perfectly. I work out on public lands and I use it to determine if I am well enough inside BLM lands to walk some of my bird surveys. It is so much easier than pulling out a big folded map, then determining my location. This app determines your location even without service and is easy to use. Thanks to the creators!

Nice start but this app needs a couple more functions to be useful to me. 1. The ability to tap the screen to add and name a pin. 2. the ability to remove single pins without disturbing the others. 3. A notes function on the pin for detailed info Could be a very useful tool with a few additions. thanks, and keep updating!

I vastly prefer Ultimate Campgrounds app. which has a lot more options (including BLM). This is not a helpful tool to finding a clearly defined public space to camp. The idea is good but execution is poor.

If youre looking for an app to find you campgrounds this isnt it. There are plenty of those out there already so dont buy this app and then get cranky that it doesnt do what it didnt say it did! What it does do is show you the maps as laid out by the different governmental depts for public lands. This is relevant for those of us who want to camp outside of camp spots or simply want to take a look at where public lands are by the current location. The key is that this works offline and that is terribly important. So many places here in the west dont have good coverage so having access to maps that work when your coverage doesnt is important. If what youre looking for is an app to tell you the boundaries of public lands this is the app for you.

Useful if you havent done any other googling for federal lands or opened up ios maps. It does have a comprehensive list of federal lands agencies websites, other wise it seems to be lifted from apple maps.
