The app lends itself to so many different uses (the Park facility being just one of them).

Needs work
I was looking for a better app to pin my car and I also wanted an app that pins various locations. I thought I found it here, but it has some flaws. I sat in a location and dropped an anchor. I went back to the app later and checked the anchor and it said I was 24 yards from the anchor. I never moved from the spot I dropped it! Also, if you want to get back to your car, it isn't as accurate as it should be. The latitude and longitude pin should always be exactly the same if you drop an anchor or mark your car. For some reason it will take you to the approximate location, but not exactly. It would be a great app if it could be more consistent and accurate. Please improve it so it can be much more reliable. Update: It looks like it was fixed. I will try it again on the car marking, but it seems like it’s better! Thanks for the fix!!!!

Simple and effective. Please keep it that way
If you’re hiking, or traveling in an unknown zone with no reliable cell coverage, you can use this app to pin markers and easily go back to them. The modern technological equivalent of Theseus thread. This app can get you out of places and find your way to coordinates. Best of all, it doesn’t need cell phone coverage to work!

Simple to use
Doesn’t take up much room, loads fast. Nicely done. Keep it on your home screen so you don’t go looking for it when you want to tag a position in a hurry, like a store or restaurant you finally found on the way to somewhere else.
