Amazing tool for learning the mountains
I have been very impressed with the breadth and abilities of this app. It has become my go-to tool for learning about the topography of mountains in California. Many times before this app, I had wondered what mountains I could see. This app makes incredibly easy to find out. Before going on trips, I enjoy using the teleport feature to see the layout of the area. You can see relatively detailed images that give you a good idea of how your path will look from each position, so it’s useful for back-country treks where good trails aren’t available. The new 3D feature is very useful here as well. There are actually quite a few trails uploaded here too, so it is useful when you want to find the direction to a trail. Both live and picture-based landscape matching work really well. I appreciate the download zone option, since there isn’t always service in the mountains. The landscapes are surprisingly accurate, and all of the features are easy to use.

Wonderful, but know that it uses a lot of data.
Update: The developer has explained that the data is necessarily large but that it can be pre-downloaded at home to save data quota. Since that was my only complaint I've upped my rating to 5-stars. Users on a measured plan should understand that the the app will pull a lot of data in the field if it hasn't been previously downloaded. It really is quite amazing at identifying peaks - point and shoot! - and I feel bad about dissing it. But in 3 or so minutes, over a less than 30 degree segment of the horizon, it just blew through my - admittedly low, 100MB - entire monthly data allowance. This won't be a barrier for most people but those light-users on a measured plan, as I am, should know upfront: expect a hefty download to do what it does.

An exceptionally useful tool!!
An excellent app for learning the names of visible mountains in your vicinity. The app is easy to use and offers an outline of the peaks you’re viewing that can be moved and aligned with the camera image of the peaks to accurately position the labels on each mountain. If you live near mountains, this is a must-have app. It’s intuitive to use and saves photos of the peaks you label for review later. The only drawback is that the free version can only be used in one area per day. If you’re moving through several locations in a day (e.g. driving for an hour or more through several sets of mountains) you need to subscribe to the Pro version of the app.
