The reason why is was attracted to Gaiagps in the first place was because it was mostly a pure backcountry navigation app that was relatively simple and straight forward to use without social media fluff. This obviously has changed in recent updates. Instead of focusing on making the navigation and maps better, the team behind Gaiagps decided that they should focus on adding completely useless social media features that no one has asked for. Very disappointed

This app was always reliable and a bargain for the features. Since "Outside" took it over its been hot garbage. I didn't mind the subscription increase and felt it was well worth the price of admission IF it would've been the same app I'd used for years! Now I can't trust it to track my progress during events that are won or loss based on your ability to submit "tracks" showing you indeed ran the marked course. I'm going to start the search for a new TRUSTWORTHY app.

UPDATE: 45-days and still no fix. I won't be renewing. Gaia has for quite sometime been buggy, but now it's really broken. With the latest update (9/24) it no longer syncs correctly. It won't sync my routes or offline maps. If I make changes on my desktop, for example, it won't show up on my phone. No offline maps sync anymore. I've emailed support a number of times with different bugs on this latest version, they only bothered to replied once.
