Pros and cons of Texas State Parks Guide app for iPhone and iPad
Texas State Parks Guide app good for
Awesome app! Love the UI. Love the descriptions for each park. Love that most parks have a PDF map! Love that the parks display pretty much all the info that you would need to know about each. I love the favorites feature!
However, 4 stars instead of 5 because of a couples minor items: 1) the drop-down menu items should have an accessible click for each drop-down item that should display more information. For example, drop-down for fishing should display the various indigenous fish, how many fishing locations, best fly-fishing locations, etc. 2) some parks only have a few pictures, I would love to see more! 3) the ads! I understand that it is a free app and yes the ads are relatively small, but still... ad-free apps are 5star worthy!
Altogether this is a lovely, must-have app for any outdoorsman/outdoorswoman/camping/backpacking/hiking/biking/fishing/exploring junkie!
It is a good app to find parks. I would love to see the added feature of checking off the parks you have been to (theNational Parks App includes this feature).
Love this ap. I use the Favorites to keep up with the ones Ive visited.
Some bad moments
Typical Texas. This app was written by somebody with no funding. Appears the oil industry took the money. Searching for a park near you, looking for natural wonders, booking campsites, you will have to go to the main website for this. There are no interactive maps on it, no identification of your location, and a quick identification of the parks near you, nor a quick calendar of events at the front end. I just hope they didnt pay someone to much for this, if at all. Very disappointed
Would be nice if I could click on the little icons to find out what the amenities are, and view photos of campsites and cabins. Im deleting; much easier just to google the park and get info. Needs lots of work.
4-5 stars when able to do so. Otherwise good to browse around.
I love that they finally made an app! Thank you thank you thank you! Im going to make a request on being able to reserve a camp site through the app in the near future please!!
I was sure expecting more. It does not provide anything more than the web. Money would have been better spent on a better reservation app that would allow you to log in, renew your park pass, maintain your park pass information, vehicle information and your credit card information for making reservations. It surprises me I can renew my vehicle tags online but I cant renew my park pass. Every year just throw it away and buy a new one while waiting in line at the park. I just need to lower my expectations.
All the information I need at the tip of my fingertips, yay!! So excited
