    I love the details. Knowing the mileage and elevation for each day.
  • Doesn’t show trails leading to AT

    As a section hiker, I don’t have the luxury of simply staying on the Appalachian Trail and getting off and on at towns. I need to be able to enter and exit the trail and find easy parking. So it’s often frustrating for me to use FarOut to find places to enter and exit the trail because it ONLY shows the AT. None of the trails that connect up with it. Also, there are several places that were dubbed “parking spots” and I was like “ummm with what? A plow truck!?!” So I have to give it 4 stars. Otherwise, I’m happy with the app.

    When I am out of service and spend what I did on a guide it should work. 3 days into my 80 mile river trip the downloaded guide stopped working. Nice when it actually works. WOULD NOT DEPEND ON. Especially if out of service.
  • good for PCT, not the Camino

    Not so good for the Camino del Norte - directs you into a dangerous road walk heading into san vincente; both gronze and wise pilgrim are better alternatives

    In a badly marked section north of Shenandoah, Far Out got me back on the trail in fading light. Phew! Took me in the dark to my shelter too. Ahh!

    A couple times today I lost the Camino shell and this app got me back on track.
  • Failed when I needed it most

    Bought this. DOWNLOADED specific area map for offline use. Got to trailhead, all looked good. Got three miles in, all looked good. Note that I was on airplane mode and app worked great. Then about five miles in near a 12,000 pass, storm blowing in and no trail visible — the app goes black. Nothing. No map. Nothing. Restart the app. Nothing. Restart phone. Nothing. Black screen. Cannot zoom out, in. Nothing. Dead app. Fortunately I had another app on my phone that wasn’t as sexy, BUT THE OTHER APP WORKED! Not as detailed or nifty as this one (when it worked), but that other app got me on the trail and off the pass before the lightning and hail hit. When this app works, 5/5. But when I needed it most, it totally failed. -5/5. And yes, I tested it without cell and without wifi several times and it worked. Do not recommend for critical situations.

    Trail conditions, water location and conditions, local services and hostels, warnings, navigation. The whole enchilada!
  • Used it for 10+ years with only 2 freeze issues

    In 2025 and 2026, I found the app completely freezes up after recording the hikes on the John Muir Trail for 4 days without having cell service to connect back to the mothership. The app would open, but would immediately freeze up with no buttons working until I killed the app. This was devastating in the middle of a long thru hike. I had to delete the app and reinstall it to get it to work again and that lost the track recording I did for those days. This is a major bug.
  • Froze during JMT hike

    While the water and comment features are good, do not rely on this for your navigation. After day 3 it quit working. When I opened the app it just froze. Restarting phone and app did nothing. A friend off trail gave suggestions through my Garmin in Reach but none worked. The app froze a couple of days later for the person I was hiking with. It’s unacceptable for a back country navigation app to completely lock up and become useless. Fortunately we had paper maps and used Strava to track time and miles traveled. HAVE MAPS DOWNLOADED ON A DIFFERENT APP. DO NOT RELY solely on FarOut.
