I really like this app for hiking because of all the information available from maps and overlays. It’s a great tool to help hikers safely navigate. But, it is sometimes difficult for my octogenarian eyes to discern the direction of travel. If the design were colored so that the forward tip were a distinct color or if the back had longer forks, it would be far easier to use!

I really like using Gaia GPS , but when ESRI Satellite went away, it became less useful. Even though both Gaia GPS and OnX use Mapbox satellite imagery, for some reason, the imagery on OnX has better resolution. I do wish Gaia GPS would improve this one area so that I can do everything I need in one app. Good for a lot but… I really like using Gaia GPS , but when ESRI Satellite went away, it became less useful.
