User Reviews and Ratings
★★★☆☆Better than nothing
This app is ok. When I point at a peak in a range of mountains, there are too many other peaks that come up too. I am using peak scanner to help me find the names, so when I have all those surrounding names too it doesn't really help. Also, I would like to know the name of the mountain range.
★★★★☆Great App
Love this app. I have a nice mountain view and now can find out the names of some of them.
Would be good if it would zoom in to the more distant mountains and filter out ones that are close up.
★★★★☆Love this app, although range setting may not be working
Very impressed with peak scanner app for identifying mountains. Works very well in the Denver Colorado and Rocky Mountain national Park area. However, the range adjustment may not be working. Even though I increase the range setting, Peak Scanner still does not show me the names of peaks that are further away. However, once I'm closer to that peak, Peak Scanner correctly identifies and names it. Very cool app. Thank you for creating it. Kurt
★★★☆☆Little trouble in Big Hawaii
I'm on the island of Hawaii and the app doesn't seem to be aware of Mauna Kea. It finds Mauna Loa okay but does not even show Mauna Kea even though I'm in Hilo looking right at it with the range extended all the way.
