“Where have you been!”
Just downloaded it and was scrolling through the apps. Very nice.
But to my subject line. You should have a “check in”.. the “been there, done that” view. Nice that you have the favorites but tracking and “checking in” would be great.
Also, might have users submit more local suggestions that you can review for accuracy. Did a hike south of Albany the other day. Small preserve with about 5-7 miles of trails but super remote.( Keleher Preserve). If I was In the area and search for beginner/intermediate hikes, would be a great local resource.
I realize that’s a some overlap with other hiking apps but still would be useful.
Otherwise, looks like a very good start.

Dave9284,
Solid but needs improvement!
Overall the app is solid. Overall layout could use a update as it seems a bit dated. The basic info provided on each park is good but simple, although again could be a bit more polished ascetically. Empire pass ability is awesome and easy to use! Although the ability to add Empire pass to wallet on iPhone would be nice. There are many improvements that can be made though.
Would highly recommended looking at the National Parks app for some inspiration (overall layout of app, parks visited checklist, interactive maps (showing top attractions, trails, restrooms, etc), offline ability, lists for easier planning of visits, etc)
Must improve map showing all parks in NY and all park maps in general (pdf external link just doesn’t make the cut). Current option of simply selecting by region for all parks leaves much to be desired. The ability of zooming in on location and seeing what’s around would be much easier.
Love NY Parks and look forward to seeing improvements in the parks and on the app!

App Seems to get Worse Over Time
I can’t search in the app anymore, not sure if they took that feature out or if it’s a bug fix but it’s been like that for awhile now. I have several parks favorited and those are the only parks I can see that aren’t featured on the first dashboard. The app freezes and doesn’t let me scroll so often it’s frustrating and all together resulting in getting rid of the app. The app used to work great for me, I used it mainly to find state parks close to me/their trail maps but it hasn’t been a good app since last year at the least.

Empire pass
I have been so frustrated with this and unable to add my empire pass to the app. Finally got it to work by deleting the app and adding it again, which brought up a box to allow the app access to my camera. It would be nice if the state parks feature also included DEC parks and campgrounds as we are in the adirondacks and visit a lot of DEC campgrounds. Not just the Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation areas.
The Last Word,
Good…could be great
Many people saying there issue with uploading the empire pass to the wallet. Flip the card…let your camera see the QR code…boom will save to the wallet in the app. My beef is I can’t then add The Empire Pass to my Apple wallet like I did with the NYS Excelsior pass. Want all my cards in one digital wallet…not my empire pass in a stand alone digital wallet!
MrPetkus,
Set camera permissions for wallet feature
Originally left a 1 star because I couldn’t add empire pass to the in-app wallet.
Normally an app would request permission to access the camera but this didn’t. Eventually figured it out

Easy2Fall,
Great new ideas!
Great design, I got so many new suggestions and discovered new places to go. I understand that the Adirondacks are not included because they are under a different agency. Seeing other options is really great way to expand my horizons!
hehsuegejsyd,
Wallet feature doesn’t work
I have had app for over year and wallet feature still isn’t working. Also, what happened to Staff’s Picks. I liked being able to see those recommendations!
Lokithehusky,
The App Wallet section is pointless!
Drove an hour to one of the locations with my wife, 1yr old, and Husky and the park ranger would not except my empire pass thru this app. He said they need the card in person. So we left and drove an hour home. I immediately deleted the app because the main purpose for the app for me was so I don’t have to carry the card in my wallet.
FYI- Keep the Empire pass in your actual wallet. I hope this does not happen to anyone else

urgirlkashmoney,
Add card feature not working
Got the app primarily to add my empire pass, but the ads card feature is not working at all. Forces you to take a picture, but only a poorly placed “cancel” button is available making it impossible to upload my card.
