Reviews Summary

  • One major issue

    Edit April 23rd: With the most recent update, my “places I’ve been” list was synced with my account on the website (albeit only for a few minutes), but not my “places to go” list.
  • Love this app

    A great app for traveling to new places. On a work trip and was able to take an afternoon off and visit some really cool places that aren’t just the regular tourist traps. Love the ability to save places, so that when I do go to those locations, I always have places to visit.

  • Great website and App

    So glad this website is in app form now! Makes my spontaneous adventures even better now
  • Great app when it’s working, but burns through battery like crazy

    This app is great if you have a full battery, but something about it absolutely decimates my phone. I’ll go from 50% down to 40% after a few minutes of setting up a list and navigating the map is even worse. I don’t have this issue with any other app so I hope the devs try something to implement a low power mode, which this app definitely needs.
  • Finally!

    So excited they finally made an app! I’ve been waiting for years
  • I’ll be honest…

    I’ve been pestering AO for years about developing an App, countless emails and DMs, and finally here we are… what a glistening, shimmering, hunk of gold buried in the mud and soil of the last year and a half! Now, here comes the honesty; this review is coming at you live after mere minutes of smashing that blue “get” button, and instantly I knew THIS is the app I’ve been asking for. This steps up AOs game to new levels. This is an instant five star review!
  • LOVE

    I have been following the website and DYING for them to make an app for YEARS! It seems like they took the time and effort to make it everything it should be! It is so user friendly and so well done!

    I am so so happy this came out! ❤️
  • Yay

    Hah! Haven't even checked out the app yet. But I installed it and when I get time, I will. But yay! Lots'a love for team ~ looking forward to it!
  • Dreams could never be this good!

    Long time AO user here. It’s taken me to some of the strangest, coolest, and quirkiest places in existence over the years. And now, moments after receiving an email, I AM USING THE APP.

    I love you Atlas Obscura, stay weird.
  • Download for greater good

    I just downloaded, haven’t even opened yet. This is an app for everyone that wants to see more. So this is an app for everyone. Get it.
