Not A Free App

Literally can’t even look at the map page without having to “upgrade”. Just put in the price for the app right on your App Store page, maybe why i should buy this rather than the “official” BM app (also not free), and stop with the sleazy “in-app purchases” sales tactics.

Helpful

Great audio

Well written

After new update am enjoying the well written descriptions and audio. Lots to learn from this app

Beware of the recharge

Purchased this app some time ago at the full price only to be asked again for more money and now the app is pretty much useless.... just a money making app

Don’t buy

Waste of money. The free map; or even the £2 at the museum gives you the same information

Money oriented from the start

I appreciate the museum is free to enter, however having only downloaded the app for the map, I was disappointed to see that you have to pay to unlock even this basic information.

Everything is hidden behind in app purchases (which is always underhand) and without paying the whole app is completely useless.

Free app useless

This app has only very basic features which is misleading in the layout on this page. Don’t be sucked in. This content is free on a laptop.

No audio

App billed as same as the rentalable guide but you don’t have to return. Well, there’s no audio with this, which was my primary reason to download and buy

Poorly written

Not as bad as some, but clearly written by an intern who doesn't have English as his or her first language.

Disappointing.

There's more detail in the museum labels than in many items in this app. Not worth it.
