  • Junk Map

    Do not buy this app if looking for an offline street map. It asks for $2.99 after you download it, and the map doesn't zoom in close enough to navigate individual streets nor are most street names even visibly! Decidedly not helpful as a street map, and I suspect there are better ways to get information about tourist attractions. Pass.

  • Fairly useless map, not worth the money

    I wanted an off-line map that I could use while roaming around Barcelona, and this one looked reasonably detailed. Unfortunately, it's not very usable while you're walking around. Every time you tap somewhere or leave the app and go back in, you are sent back to the default view, zoomed out, losing track of wherever you were. The map itself is fine once you zoom in, but doesn't let you search, save bookmarks or locations, or do anything else other that simply consult it as a map. Several other map and tour apps that I had downloaded did a much better job, and I ended up using them exclusively and ditching this one.

  • Useless

    Do not waste your money on this crap.
    The only "originality" is the "augmented reality" (from what I understood: you frame the building whit your ipod, it recognizes it and it gives the explanation)
    But the main features like: "I have 5 days in Barcelona. How do I organize my visit" are useless. It just consist on a list of attractions. (difference between 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 days, is just that the list gets longer)
    Interface with the user is zero. Explanations of the sites are lousy and insufficient. Same for restaurant suggestions (those are not bad but extremely limited)
    This is just a pile basic texts put on an app to make money. The total opposite of MTrip, which is a real product (not perfect yet, but at least you feel "they care"), really thought and designed for iPod and iPhone.

  • Crashed on 3.1.3

    Never could get it to open. That's a lot to pay for something that doesn't work.
  • Excellent guide, highly recommended

    Just back from Barcelona and found this guide superb. Excellent maps, useful information and sensible tips.
