Gives you the names altitudes and distances to peaks nearby Also lets you view overhead on GPS map Works perfect Thanks                     Just what I was looking for Maineman583
I did love this app but with the last few updates it refuses to match up to the horizon here in Colorado anymore There s very distinct mountains all around and all the screen is showing now is a flat outline with two jagged spikes that fade up to infinity Please fix this soon it was an excellent app         Going downhill PaulEL
Last update fixed the this side up issue Now it s a compass error and wants to move away from metal objects We ll my apple compass works just fine and the phone does have a metal case Just can t get it right     A Waste Conifer71
Great app Great for hiking and learning the names of local mountains and hills                     Great update Fish Sticks1
Lots of fun Helpful and informative for the hikes                     FUN Wiggin6
Does not include Alaska even if you pay Review details to see if your state is included     Doesn t cover AK CoyoteTrail
Good app to get the peaks names but the mapping is odd by about 40 degrees Very unfortunate             It s just ok Zuni-Gaga
We were out on our property and wanted to see where some mountains were Loaded this app and it worked perfectly Very impressed                     Works great hubbni
This app has never worked This Side Up won t go away Developers won t respond to questions Forget it     A waste of Itzalldownhill
Got the app and purchased maps for various western US states Cannot get the app to show peak names via camera all it ever says is this side up Asked questions via app support no answers Do not recommend for use or purchase     Doesn t work as advertised poor support Awg4
As long as you calibrate your compass and gps is on you can get an idea of all the peaks near you It outlines the peaks so you can see what is what I would definitely get this app                     Dope Coco nude
Doesn t line up with the actual peaks So it s useless     Don t bother Mountain Baby
I downloaded this app based on only needing one state since it says first state is free Well low and behold Hawaii isn t available in the list of states Great if you re in any other state besides Hawaii     No Hawaii Eddie.Hamilton
The labels appear in the frame but not necessarily over the mountains they should They also drift I pointed my phone at a nearby mountain and the label was off by several degrees I attempted to use the fine adjust feature but the adjustments didn t help The labels soon drifted away from their marks again I think this app needs more work         Kinda Lame Berdoo Mountaineer
Works really well The peaks are really accurate and this new version is way faster                     Super handy elizabethbodunn

If youre like me and have wanted a well developed mountain naming app then this one is your best choice Its exactly what Ive been looking for and it does its job fairly well but there are a few issues For one the app is somewhat inaccurate and can have the names hanging either below above to the left or to the right of the actual peak and can be off by quite a bit when location services are not perfect this can be a big issue and therefore should be looked into thoroughly to insure the most accurate placement possible Also the app can only be used when holding the phone in landscape position with the camera on the bottom right of the phone which makes finger placement an issue if you want to be able to see the mountains on the screen as well as in the distance reversible camera usage would be useful here Lastly with my personal pickiness I think the look could be improved with less jagged edges on the lines representing the horizon and the mountain range and the lines leading from the user to the mountain should only appear if the user clicks on a peak However aside from the accuracy the other two critiques are things that could be fixed down the road Overall this is still a great app and I hope to see it improve and become a great navigational tool that people just like myself can use to learn the different names of the mountains surrounding them           Almost Perfect
