Mostly Did What I Needed

Purchased this app to record an epic road trip (15 states, 4 Canadian Provinces, & 2 territories in a little more than 11 days). For the most part, Trip Journal was what I was looking for: something to track the GPS coordinates, and let me create notes & add photos to the trip.

I did have issues with frequent crashing, although I figured that was due simply to the enormity of my trip. There were a few things I had issues with and/or would like to see in future releases:

1) the ability to add photos not taken within the app. I had several issues using the camera from within the app itself; namely, it took far too long to open up the app to take pictures (resulting in MANY missed opportunities), absolutely NO control of the camera from within the app (I couldnt turn off the flash or zoom), and several times the screen never moved off the aperture graphic, meaning I was taking photos completely blind & hoping for the best.

2) landscape capabilities to type notes

3) latitude & longitude on the exported maps (i.e., the ones you view on Facebook) - I wasnt able to always drop pins at different waypoints, but Id still love to know/see where I was.

Overall, it did most of what I needed, and was very nice to have on for a trip of a lifetime.
