Easy. And facilitates the £250bn pa Purple Pound to support this inclusion. App is really easy to use, up to date and very important. Well done ### 5/5 — Spontaneous User *2025-09-10, version 2.2* Great for finding cool spots whilst travelling. Info on access is ok and reviews are great ### 5/5 — Excellent concept! *2019-01-17, version 2.1* This is a brilliant idea and given time and exposure it will become a very useful tool when looking for accessible accommodation & venues. It has just helped me plan a trip to London, great to see an option to submit reviews also, something I will be doing! ### 1/5 — Good job it was free *2013-03-01, version 1.0.3* Great idea in theory but completely useless in practice. Sadly another vanity project from a well intentioned disabled person. These things either have critical mass, ie fully loaded with all venues, good and bad, or they are a waste of time. In not going to get the phone out every time I visit a destination to a) see if there is an entry on the map for that destination that might be accessible and b) make my destination choice on those (incomplete) options when c) they are the incomplete and objective entries of one 'discerning' disabled customer. 10 out of 10 for concept, 1 out of 10 for usability as an accessible venue finding tool. Sorry. ### 5/5 — Best app for physically handicapped *2012-11-20* Very helpful app. And the best part is it's free. ### 5/5 — Mr *2012-09-07, version 1.0.1* Love the app!! Finally a true app for disabled!!!!! Very helpful and so needed. Hooray!!! Map and location are also fantastic. ### 5/5 — App *2012-08-26, version 1.0* Such a great apps ## Frequently asked questions about BlueBadgeStyle ### What is BlueBadgeStyle?
