Awful!!

You can't even see the names of the rooms in the map without paying for full version!

Rubbish app!

The museum is amazing and fantastic and everyone should visit but don't bother with the app. No tours, no audio, no guide. Ok if you are standing in front of something and want to know about it but you can read the notices next to the artifact for that info. I found it totally useless and expected more from the app. Which looks and gems several years old. Especially as I paid Β£2.99 for the full version

Useless App

This app is basically useless. All it does is prompt you to pay extra and buy the upgraded App. I will delete immediately.

Wonderful app

I work at the British Museum and have used the app many times to guide visitors around the museum and to give them information about the objects on display. Highly recommend this app

Brush Museum

Avoid - even with the full version is it not up to date. Walking around the museum the app does not match the displays fully.

Una sola estrella/Just one star

La mayorΓ­a del contenido no es gratis. / Almost all the content is not free.

Rubbish without full version

The free version is not a fully functioning guide. It's more of a teaser. They might as well have just offered to sell the app at one go.

Not free

Free? 90% of the content is paid. It's not free

Useless without paying

Uses the cheap trick of being free but pointless unless you pay Β£2.99 to "unlock" most of the info - including half the map!! Difficult to use, no index/options etc to guide you. Downloading as we speak...

Poorly designed

A free app that forces you to purchase the full version if you want to do basic functions like use the museum map to ID what is where in the building. This is information that is free to anyone actually standing in the museum so is completely useless. Instead of using this app as an advert for the incredible collection of exhibits and attract additional visitors, the app is here purely to raise money. Avoid it a pick up a free leaflet when you get to the museum. A wasted opportunity.
