Contact FATMAP Support

I was so excited when I first found this app and started using it. It was great. There were some features you could use for free: Downloadable Maps Limited overlays Etc. And there were some features that you could access once you purchased a membership. Until recently, I used this app regularly for scouting my trips into the back country. Then, in the latest major update this company decided that they would require the membership for most of the previously free features like overlays and downloadable maps. It’s absolutely disgusting when companies offer some features for free for a long time and then all the sudden decide to make those features paid features. I was going to buy the membership until they pulled this horrible business decision to screw over it’s past users.

I use Gaia Maps and Maplets (and Google Maps)- all these apps serve a distinct purpose. Unfortunately, this app does deserve the phone memory. On an iPhone SE the UI is a little choppy. This app is like Google Earth, it doesn’t really add any value beyond that for me. And being old fashioned, 2D topo maps are just fine to use when exploring outside. So what does this app need? I could see something like this being popular once AR is more widespread, but what it’s missing is everything else needed in backcountry navigation like layer support, trail names, route tracking, the ability the effortlessly find new trails.

This app is trash. Software and mapping is great, but takes up nearly a gig of space downloading an offline map and it doesn’t load the topo when you pull it up. FATMAP is better used on a computer and cross referenced with Gaia GPS or another better offline application. Very disappointed. I’ve now tried to use this on two canyoneering trips in southern Utah, a backcountry ski tour in the wasatch and a 3 day raft trip in Idaho. Worthless. I want my $30 back.
