- Overall:
Well, considering it seems there is no zoom in on land, keeps getting server errors, doesn't want to load options too quickly, it's ok. I kept getting server disconnects and try again in 2 min, however, it's just enough time to turn you off to the app when this goes on every few seconds. It would be an awesome and informative software but it has a lot of bugs to work out. For now I'll stay with Google or MS earth software.

Looks nice but a bit of a bomb!

Compared to Google Earth this one is a bit of a bomb. It uses a lot of HD space! Functionality is probably the biggest issue; it runs very slowly! There are quite a few glitz-y, flashy features, but I think most of them would be rather useless for a majority of users -- depending on your interests. Most of the views/imagery for areas of the world I have a personal interest(where I have family) substantially lack definition and clarity.
