If you are a professional in the field of GIS, this is a critical tool. Amateurs need to stay away until they gain at least a GIS certificate. Hardest software to understand I have ever used, but once mastered, a formidable tool for dealing with geographic issues. Could have better cartography tools for that polished final look, I have to use Adobe Illustrator in concert with this to produce a quality map in terms of aesthetics. Do NOT let this stop you from attempting mastery of this amazing program.
My company has an ArcGIS Online account. With our account and this app, my agents can take a prospect through a large property and always nowhere they are.
With the ESRI Data Collector app we can download maps and show property even without internet access (GPS doesn't need wifi or 4G access).
This does work well enough to be of any use on the Kindle, that I could not do with simple online mapping programs like Google maps, etc. just not worth the time. Maybe an Iphone with GPS would work better. It was free and worth the try though. I hope they keep working on an application for the Kindles that will work exclusively with the Kindles.

I'm testing a GPS device that uses an open source version of Android 4.2, so connecting to the Google Play Store is not an option. I was hoping to get the latest versions of the ESRI ArcGIS and Collector apps from the Amazon app store, but I'm disappointed to see that Amazon only hosts an older version of the ArcGIS app and doesn't host the Collector app at all.
This seems to be a trend with the Amazon app store - they often only host older versions of apps available on the Google Play Store. I realize this is mostly a developer issue, and perhaps tied to agreements they make with Google, but it is still frustrating that there's no really robust third party hosting service that can offer access to the latest apps when the device can't connect to Google's site.
So... this app is several release versions behind ESRI's current version, which is 10.1. It works, but there are some features missing from the most current version.
I was very excited for this app, so that I could access my web services on the go. I was able to connect to my services, but I have to "authenticate" each layer in each service. Then, when trying to select a feature, it disconnects from the server and then quickly reconnects. But, I have to reenter all of my credentials for each layer, only to have it disconnect again. I'm hoping it's something my in-house GIS geek at work can fix, but my first impression is lousy.
This is a really nice app. I am a part of a club that uses ESRI arc gis to create maps constantly. That is all we do. I think this app is amazing because upon uploading my maps to the online server I can access them on my kindle easily. Also I am very impressed that this has made to the kindle app market. Good job ESRI
Per le mappe in rete questa è l'app più veloce che ho trovato. Pro: veloce, accurata, leggera, bella cartografia Contro: scarsa interattività di ricerca, cosa che purtroppo non le permette di sostituirsi a google maps ma ovviamente non è quello l'intento degli sviluppatori
