### 1/5 — Rushed poorly coded app

*2025-12-26*

The producers have made many other apps with little user engagement which is normally a red flag which means they rushed the app and were not focused on making it good. The zoom in is glitched and it doesn’t even show anything it claims to show for example no benches or toilet. Would give 0 stars if possible

### 5/5 — Vorschlag

*2024-07-13*

Geile App. Ist es vielleicht möglich eine Kommentarfunktion an den Bänken hinzuzufügen, sodass man Empfehlungen schreiben kann?

### 5/5 — Extrem gute App

*2024-07-13*

Diese App ist eine große Bereicherung für meinen Home Display

### 4/5 — This will be great when the crowd sourcing kicks in

*2015-11-10*

This is a very simple app that will be very useful when we put some data in it. Obviously, it takes all of us to find the benches and put them on the map. I encourage you to down load the app and spend 5 minutes providing info for your neighborhood. Even if you don't think you'll use the app, this will be a great service to other users. 
My daughter has MS. She would be much more confident going for a walk if she had the information this app is intended to provide.

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2015-04-26*

This app is the best, always wanted to know good places to sit and relax

### 5/5 — A+

*2015-04-18*

Great app

### 3/5 — It’s a good app but

*2015-04-08*

Some benches are missing. At least you can add them!

### 1/5 — What

*2015-04-06*

Great app apart from one thing. It doesn't show benches or anything else it's supposed to. Apart from that........

### 5/5 — Molt bé

*2015-03-25, version 1.0*

Útil. Funciona, i el mapa està bastant actualitzat

### 5/5 — A+ would sit again

*2015-03-23*

If you ever find yourself in a desperate need to: a) sit down b) drink water, or c) go to the toilet, this app is for you.

Minor issue: In the current version, toilets and fountains appear labeled as 'park bench'. Exercise caution and double check before attempting to use either of those facilities.
