I've used this program for several years now and found it invaluable for my landscape shooting plans prior to any field visits. For anyone who uses this I'm not sure you're aware, but all desk top usage was halted the first part of September and moved to an on line "web app" style usage. When I first looked at the app it did not seem to be what I liked most in the program. However, after reading the short two page PDF and poking at it for awhile it is working well for my needs once again.
What I do not like is the fact the saved locations are stored in your browser. Which works fine unless you clean the browser with certain cache removal programs. However, you can backup the KLM files for backup. Not knowing of this recent "web app" upgrade I lost my database of about 35 locations, but not a problem as I have excellent recall of where sites are and will rebuild it back over time.
Listed is the link to the app. Once you access the app there is information in the help PDF and some tutorial information too.
Good point there, Myer. I always found my iPhone a bit too small for using there, but now with the larger screen i6......well now, just maybe....
Thanks for posting your update here also.

I discovered this last week. Switch to the web version was relatively painless.
When I first got a smart phone, I chose the iPhone because TPE was not then available for Android. I do prefer it on the desktop, but in the field I don't have the PC with me, and the iPhone suffices.
