COTREX app

By JRH10101 (Pcmac user)

While the app is pretty decent once you get the hang of it, it still isn’t no onX. I like that it can track you but it get very annoying having to turn my screen back on every couple of minutes while I’m trail riding taking my eyes off the road and a hand off the wheel which can always be dangerous. I would love to see a new feature where the phone screen doesn’t time out and shut off while you are using the app.
This is the hiking app I have always wanted!

By Mark & Linda (Pcmac user)

We have used this app on 4 hikes so far, and it has been fantastic! Every time the trail is vague or has multiple forks, this gives you the guidance you need. We went to a popular trailhead on the weekend that was packed. My wife joked that it looked like the security line at the airport. We used this app to find a nearby trail where we met zero other hikers in 5 miles, and the views were fantastic. It was so nice knowing exactly where you are on the trail, and knowing all the nearby trails. We also love the ability to download map blocks so you aren’t lost when there’s no cell service.
Best moving map for ATV

By adeleblack (Pcmac user)

Love this app! The trail descriptions are great (thanks for using names and not just trail numbers). I use this on an old ruggedized iPad mounted to my ATV. Once I figured out how to keep the screen active when plugged in to power it works fabulous (settings / battery/display & brightness/auto lock/never). My only knock, and it is a tiny one, when tracking a route, the ATV trail tracking is brown. I would like to be able to select colors for specific rides as brown is really hard to see overlaid on the satellite topo view especially in bright sunlight. Other than that this is a must have app for the app trails.
Good app! Great for motorcycle riders!

By Eeve132 (Pcmac user)

EDIT: my first review was all wrong! This app has every trail you know of for moto, OHV etc. it gives you all the need to know info about it ( I like seeing if it’s a gravel road or real trail) I haven’t seen it yet on here but I still may be wrong, but it would be nice to have a feature to review the trails so people can hear if it’s in good shape, weather damaged etc. So far though this is by far the best app when it comes to being a motorcycle trail rider. It’s clear information so you know if you’re on a road=LP or trail=sticker so you won’t run into trouble.
