Great concept but major location inaccuracy

I really like the idea behind this app. However, in the current version the GPS/location feature on the map is very inaccurate (by about 200m compared to accurate readings on google maps and apple maps)which renders the app totally useless. Please fix immediately as this impairs the core feature of your app. Thanks

Wonderful idea - wonderfully implemented!

Hats off to the developers and those who had this great idea!

Doesnt Work on iPhone4S

Cant even sign up. Definitely needs work. Good concept, but should have been tested before release. NOT RECOMMENDED

Very very perfect

Very very good

Doesnt start

The app loads, very slowly, and then flashes a request to send alerts , and then quits.

Brilliant, extraordinary, simple, very useful.

Identify or find any precise location in the world with just three understandable and easy to pronounce words.

Perfect for those times when youre meeting someone at a convention!

Or finding your friends at a concert, or when you get separated in a city or camp where none of you can read the street signs (or there are none)! Needs downloadable, offline map tiles for 5 stars.

Amazing and genius!

This app and entire concept is amazing. This is going to change the world!

Pretty amazing

Ive only used it for a few minutes but its obvious that it will be very useful. It might be nice to add this to new Geocaches too. Getting started wasnt quite as easy as Id hoped. When you sign up and log in you cant do anything but modify your details. You actually need to back up one step (to the filled in log in blanks) in order to get the three small horizontal bars on the top left, that let you access the app feature. Looking forward to using this in the backwoods where no easy location identification is possible.

not bad

however, words are still as meaningless as a numerical coordinate. it would be better if the first two words are nouns. ie. running tall giraffe. crazy bald computer. white meaningless men. etc.

We needed this

Thank you

Crashes and low resolution

The search function crashes with almost any use I have put it through. I am using iOS 9 on an iPhone 6s and the resolution is clearly quite low. I have no other apps using this older/lower resolution.

What a useful app!

Notwithstanding the enormous potential this app will have on logistics everywhere and location search in places without clear postal systems, I cant wait to use this to search for friends in crowds as well.

Need work

No good pictures and buttons are not working. (I can not add my places) i am going to uninstall app :(

Fun and helpful!

Even if you dont use What3words for super-precise location anywhere in the world, you can have some fun with the three word locations! (Salad.powers.economies at the St. Louis Arch is one of my favorites)

Crashes

Chrashes every time I open the map.

Crashes immediately

Crashes immediately and resolution still not updated for new iPhones...

Fascinating and useful

No problems for me loading and using app. Inventive solution to locating people. Great to use in unfamiliar areas, I can see it very helpful if traveling overseas.

Account Set Fail

This app sounds great, but seems buggy. When I tried to set up my account, it returned the error mssg: "user info does not match our records." Even though Im not yet in their data base. 3 subsequent efforts could not resolve the issue. Hope they fix it.

IPad mini - splash scren and nothing else

Crashes immediately.
