Good however needs work

App seems to be great at tracking everything however it wont allow you to advance past tenderfoot or second class that I can see. Another issue is you cant adjust the font, as a result part of the requirements are being cutoff. Please fix these issues and the app will be awesome!!!

Mrs.

Its always disappointing when a portion of the app was free then after an update it now cost $10.

Disappointed

Pricing: There are multiple pricing options given in the help section of the app but the only in-app purchase option I get is $9.99. I only need to track 1 scout. Tracking: The app isnt tracking any of the progress in terms of rank. It still shows Tenderfoot and my scouts name isnt showing either. I dont have much faith in a product that doesnt work when its free. If you want people to pay a rather high price for the full version, the free one should at least work!

Wonderful app

I am over the 11 yr old scout leader. It is prefect for my needs. I read the bad reviews and I am not having any of the issues listed below.

Subscription

Dont get this app it only gives you access to checking off requirements for about 2 months then you have pay and a scout like me thats trying to save money for summer camp and outings doesnt have money for this

Amazazazing

Perfect to keep track of badges and ranks

Update problems

This app is great however the most recent update has created a problem. The updates to the Cooking and Swimming merit badge requirements have caused an issue with the completion percentage. Please fix it!!!

Scout app updates cause more headaches

It is a five when it actually works but since the updates. That have come out in September I have had nothing but problems. It no longer recognizes eagle badges as completed with check so it will not reflect on ranks as it should. I now am unable to add any new badges at all. So I took the time to manually write all my information removed app to redownload a currents version and now they are not recognizing my account expires in December. I liked app because it automatically filled in things completed into rank or badges but this is no longer happening. So flustrated and disappointed. I even recommended to friends but wont die that anymore. So sad

Crashing after os8 update

When attempting to add camping or outings after the os8 update it freezes and asks "How many?" No recovery without closing and restarting then it repeats. Currently unusable.

Not bad for basic scout advancement tool

Only a few minor glitches to fix. Otherwise easy and neat to use.

The concept of this app is great. The app is just VERRYYY S.L.O.W. Would like if fixed

Im a

This app isnt really free because you have to pay just to add 1 Scout!

Great for a Scout

Because you can only have one free scout this app is great for scout but I would not recommend it for a scoutmaster and it is helping me keep track of what I need to complete for Eagle

Amazing

This is now officially my favorite app on the App Store

Good but not as good as scout trail

This app is great and all and I loved it until I saw scout trail the two apps where the same but the scout tail app is only a dollar and you get the app forever this app you have to pay ten dollars a year so which app do you think is best now?

Sweet price reduction

I have been wanting to get this app forever but could not float the price. Found out today price dropped and I got it. Love it!!! Been uploading data for my troop for the last hour. It rocks. Thank you for lowering the price.

Amazing

This app is extremely helpful, it is very useful for scouts and leaders alike. Great layout and very well done overall :)

Makes Tracking Easy

This app has been instrumental in helping my son keep track of rank requirements and merit badges. Hes 13, and he has become more independent and organized because of this app. Thank you!

Great app for scoutmaster and scout alike

This app is perfect as it shows all requirements for ranking and merit badges. Took is easy and quick to use and a scoutmaster can track all their passing off easily! Information can also be synced to other phones with a email address and password. Amazing app!

Just plain wrong!

Merit badge requirements are not numbered properly. Cooking merit badge show two requirements. There are 8. The app shows huge sub requirements instead of properly labeling them as individual requirements. Ive seen this in at least 6 merit badges. Requirements descriptions for ranks and merit badges are truncated and therefor only partially useful. Disappointed. I had this app for over a year and theyve never fixed it. How about a little proofreading?
