ArcGIS app good for
Awesome app for browsing and editing maps from my ArcGIS Onling organization!
The ArcGIS App is a great utility for accessing map content hosted from ArcGIS Online. With the ArcGIS App I can view and edit GIS data from my iPhone or iPad, use the integrated GPS to collect features out in the field, and even take a picture and attach it to features stored in ArcGIS Online. I hope this App will support offline data storage in the future for times when disconnected editing will be required.
The organization I work for has an ArcGIS online org account and this app has helped our users access our maps - simple, easy to use, no development!
We are glad to see Esri bringing its expertise to all the smart phone platforms. I use it to interact with their Cloud platform, ArcGIS Online, though I actually prefer the Windows Phone app over the iOS version.
Like app for viewing my maps, but really like it for collecting features while in the field. The use of attribute picklists and ability to capture attachments is a big plus for me.
Hard to imagine a better way to access web maps than from a native app your mobile device. Super easy integration with ArcGIS Online. The iPad UX is amazing so kudos for the extra work, devs! Will return for a 5-star review after offline capability is released : )
Crash victims: Esri support has a quick/easy resolution for you. I had the same issue and its fixed now. Giveem them a shout.
Some bad moments
Every time I open this app on my iPhone 5 it closes itself before I can use it. Fix this please. I think it would be a good app. But this is ridiculous.
Lake Grapevine Hunting map is not showing the boundaries like it did when I first downloaded. Its the only reason I downloaded the app. Totally useless for me now.
The app is nice when it works but if your map references an ArcGIS server map service that is either off line or maybe slow at starting up the app will crash. Unfortunately this is a lingering issue that ESRI has not resolved as yet.
From hero to zero. Unusable since the update. When it does work it is so slow that the home is over before the loads. Not sure how you broke it.....but you did.
Crashes when loading custom maps with several hundred features.
I updated the version from 2.3.2 to the new 10.1.2 and the map service is not loading properly. Its taking 20 minutes to load what loaded in less 30 seconds previously. We have our own ArcGIS for server and publish our own maps and use it via ArcGIS ipad app.
I cant roll back to the old version and are left with no way of using the service.. Help!
