UninstallingFilled my gallery with folders called '1', '2' etc - each containing random snapshots of bits of geological maps at crazy angles. Left a message at BGS by doing their online survey..

Not as good for Northern IrelandLarger scale maps only and no details for NI. Could also do with a key to show what the colours mean.

Great Geology AppOne of the best geo apps ever.But why the random images added to my gallery? Doesn't happen on an iphone, so why on an android? Fix that & it's 5*

5 stars if it can be moved to the SD card and use mobile location as an alternative to GPS

Very goodWould be 5 stars if it had a 'pinch-zoom' functionality and maybe the option of a legend (swipe to the right and bring up a new window perhaps?).

A great little app well done BGS, and well done for bringing it to Android first, a map key would be nice for rock types and maybe multi-touch.

Nice little app. Hint to others: you need to do a long tap on the map to get the lithology information. It took me a while to figure that out.

Ultimately touch zoom would make this perfect! It's one of the reasons I got a smart phone.

Brilliant and easier to use than a geological mapUsing Scroll Excel with Android 4. Easy to zoom to street level. To find out what the map colours signify just rest your finger on the part you are interested in and a description of the type of geological formation pops up. It usually offers you a link to even more data about the formation, albeit in technical geology speak. But then this is an app from the British Geological Survey so I would expect it to be technical. In response to some earlier comments I have had no issues with my gallery, having played with this all afternoon. [Edit: Well I have now! I also found a long list of random blurred geology pictures when using my file manager. However I used a different file manager and I could not find them? It appears that some file managers confuse the cache with the gallery! I have since found an identical effect with OS maps. The setting menu on my Scroll Excel gives the option of clearing the cache for each application so that is an easy option if it worries you.]

Geologic time scaleThe Google Map of UK Geology. Would be nice to have a Geologic time scale in it. By far all other geologic time scale apps on Android are using American terminologies.
