Poor App Poor App

The application downloads as a free app with limited use. Every time it is opened, it bugs you to "upgrade." Even after paying the $4, it still demands upgrading. I deleted it out of frustration (probably never get my money back). In my opinion it is a rip-off.

Don't trust it!!!! Don't trust it!!!!

The author of this app is entirely biased. She will only post positive comments on the parks and will not post anything I mean anything negative. Although many a times the experience is good you still want to alert people about trains sounding horns in the middle of the night like Fish Eating Creek(which my the way part of the RV park FLOODS when it rains, and Blue Springs State Park, and those parks that are not kid friendly like Highland Hammocks, although they say they are. Not to mention it takes her months to post what every positive feedback she fells is deemed to be seen. I posted a positive comment for Highland Hammocks on January of last year and she didn't post until March. Not very good for travelers. Posted a very negative comment without any foul language, so there is no excuse, yesterday for the same park (Highland hammocks); look for it, you probably won't see it. if she does i will retract my comments. Its under TonyC

An app shouldn't nag. An app shouldn't nag.

This one's coming off. Every time you launch or change screens it stops you in your tracks to persuade you to buy the paid version. It just isn't that great. Hard to navigate, freezes.

Useful but freezes Useful but freezes

Helpful app for visiting Florida State Parks. Freezes in several locations. Poor navigation, needs buttons and a menu when drilling down. The swipe left gesture is for Back and it does not work smoothly. Nags for in app purchase which is not at all necessary.

Description

★ Get the family outdoors to enjoy natural Florida ★

Stunning white-sand beaches, tropical palms, crystal-clear springs, and tours of mansions and fortresses await on your exploration of one of the United States' top state park systems, Florida State Parks.

Written by Sandra Friend, author of 14 guides to hiking and travel showcasing natural Florida, this comprehensive app provides you compelling reasons to visit Florida's more than 160 state parks, including lush photographic tours of each destination. Within this guide, you'll be able to find parks within proximity to you as well as by specific city, cost, and by categories such as guided tours, historic sites, urban wildernesses, cabin rentals, and child-friendly parks. Call outfitters directly from the app, and review park maps, background details, and trail information via links to the web.

Whether you enjoy camping, scuba diving, backpacking, mountain biking, a guided paddling trip, a tour of an antebellum home, or just a quiet walk on the beach at sunset, Florida State Parks offer an inexpensive and more authentic alternative to Florida's more well-known attractions. Use this app as your guide to make the most of your next Florida vacation - or your next weekend.
