5/5Use it constantly, happy it’s updated for X
When traveling, it’s an amazing way to find things that outside of tourist zones. Wandering through towns, looking up historic buildings, finding notes that would elude even the best guidebooks.

5/5A great app
This is a terrific travel companion or if you simply want to learn more about your neighborhood. It’s beautiful and well thought out but it doesn’t have many extra features.
