Don’t get

Tried it out. You cant search anywhere you need to go. It seems that its only rated based on what the companies reported. It only works one way and it not a good way. Doesn’t work with what you need. Can’t even categorize your searches or it deletes the couple things that are rated. You cant see more about the place other than what the computer defined the place biased on accessible, partially accessible, or not at all/ no data.

No built in wayfinding

Would really benefit from built in wayfinding. Otherwise it not bad but lacking in Australia

A work in progress

This is an app in progress, and as such I would rate it at two stars. However, I’m adding an extra star to reflect the positive contact I had with the developer. I expect that over time as the app is further developed my rating will rise. It’s a good idea and one I’d like to participate in.

Response from developer

I'm sorry you did not have a good experience. You are right, the default language for the "add new place" is in German today. But you can switch it to English! We plan to integrate the form into our app but as a non-profit organization we have scarce resources so this may take a little more time. I hope you try the form again in English.

Users will make this great

Really great idea and well implemented. It depends on users to update so the more people using it the more accurate it will be. Get out there and start adding places. In Germany it’s working brilliantly

Response from developer

Thanks! Watch out for the next update coming soon, we hope it will be even greater! ;-)

This is awesome except

That it is not really accessible on iOS. The Ios voiceover feature isn’t up to par when trying to navigate.

Response from developer

Please try the updated version, we put a lot of effort into making the app itself accessible. If you have any issues, you can also contact us at bugs@wheelmap.org

No Australian data

I don't understand why this is in the Australian iTunes Store, all the data is for Europe!

Response from developer

As of 2019 we have 25.000 marked places in Australia. The more people help marking places, the better. We also show now accessible places from partners to make Wheelmap most useful to you. Worldwide we have 1.5 million marked places on Wheelmap.

Good app but update isn't it working

I get en error data could not be updated upon trying to update to the latest version

Nice idea but broken

Doesn't seem to be able to load points of interest properly - often loads the ones just off the edge of the screen, which isn't too useful!

Doesn't work!

No locations are showing up on the map!

Needs more data and a full English translation

Good idea but there is limited data at present. Could be useful if more people input their local information. An app like this is badly needed.
Note that the terms of use are currently written in German.
