AllTrails: Pros and Cons
लाभ:
- Detailed trail information – AllTrails not only has a wealth of information about trails (conditions, GPS directions, etc.) on its own but also encourages trail-goers to leave a review of the trails they have visited. Thus, it empowers you to make informed decisions on your adventure.
- Appeals to a wide variety of people – With so many activities to do and trails of all difficulty levels, AllTrails serves a diverse range of adventure enthusiasts. So, you too will surely find trails that match your demands.
दोष:
- Dependency on GPS and Internet – Since navigation assistance is one of its main features, it is bound to use GPS and the Internet to guide you in your journey. However, some remote trails may have limited or no internet connectivity which can hamper your AllTrails experience.
This can be partially overcome by being a paid member and downloading the offline map of your trail.
- Occasional ads – If you are a free user of AllTrails, you will have to bear with the ads it shows you. But luckily, it doesn’t bombard you with too many ads like a lot of other apps do.
