App is a scam

Download the official app from the museum itself. It’s free, works well, and doesn’t try and swindle you with in-app purchases that do nothing.

Waste of money

Don’t waste your money on the in-app purchase. I paid to get access to tours and audio guides at the American Museum for Natural History and except for some very generic texts I did not get anything, no augmented reality, no audio guides. Waste of money.

Useless

Every single thing I clicked on to try to find my way around the museum was locked unless I upgraded to the paid version.

Response from developer

Thank you very much and we are sorry the hear that. It is only 1 payment to unlock the content. The reason behind this is for travelers to be able to enjoy everything in an offline mode without paying for roaming charges while they travel. Even being able to use geolocalization capabilities such as GPS or Augmented Reality without being connected to your cell phone provider. We hope you understand and if you have any other question, please do not hesitate to get back to us. Thank you.

Scam

Pay for museum entrance, then have to pay to use most of the “free” app? Scam!

No content without pay. Content after payment minimal

Only a short article per exhibition room. No explanations etc. Maps are the same as on the flyer.
Unbelievable that I have to pay to get nearly nothing. Don’t do it.

Should have read the reviews first

All of the reviews to date are accurate.

The free download gives you nothing.

The $2.99 upgrade, required to basically see anything, is also of limited value.

No search feature. No functionality.

They should be a shamed of themselves.

Don’t waste your time downloading

You post at the museum download this app to help you through the museum. Why download it and then when you click on something it’s oh for $2.99 you can unlock the features. This is a crappy rip off. I’ll just take a map at the museum.

Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry you have had a bad experience with the app. We are trying to improve it in a daily basis. As you may know there are many revenue models within the apps and we have decided to use the freemium model (free to download with locked content). We have never implied anything other than that. Even if you look at the app store page, it says that the app contains In App Purchases and it shows a price for each one of them. On the other hand, if you are not happy with the product we can always process a refund. Please email us to contact@etips.com and we can work it from there. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience that this might have caused you. Please check out our new free app "Tours & Travel" https://itunes.apple.com/app/tours-travel/id886459427?mt=8 Thank you

Pathetic! Waste of money

I should of listened to the reviews here...I was expecting a more in depth tour of the museum...more images of dioramas and stores of them...current exhibits...basically useless except for the most basic information about the museum which you can get on the web! Waste of money

Useless piece of crap!

Downloaded the app to get the map of the museum and they offer it to buy for $2.99! I have already bought a ticket for $33, why do you want to charge me more just to navigate the museum:(

Thank you for your feedback. You can download a free version of the app here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tours-travel/id886459427?l=es&ls=1&mt=8 In the other hand this app is integrated with the one you already downloaded so you do not have to purchase the tickets again.

Literally unusable

Each selection from the opening screen is a pop-up paywall. There is nothing available without paying. Do not bother.

USELESS!!!! DO NOT!!!!

I have no problem wasting money on useless things but this had absolutely zero value. Even the maps were blurry, barely readable. I only downloaded because I couldn’t find a docent. It’s was an exercise in futility I didn’t know existed.

read the reviews first😩

Shame on you

What an awful app. It’s a total scam. Every tab takes you to a upgrade for 2.99 page.....Instead of free just put 2.99 and save us the trouble of downloading.
