User reviews
Perfect surveying application. Easy to use and all functionality you need
Should I be able to see a map? Because I can only see white with a red dot
The App is very accurate and is very easy to use. Their customer service is very commendable. Thank you
Makes an ideal mobile companion to Qgis. Takes the pain out of field data synchronization.
Finally an app that complements QGIS as it should. Easy to use.
As one of the QGIS desktop users, I am always grateful for the contribution of Lutra Consulting. Input is also really nice! I completed 100% of the Korean translation of this app on Transifex today! Now you can add ko as well. :)
