User reviews

Basic app with poor offline experience

The app lacks a number of features I find useful when using a digital guidebook while travelling. I particularly miss having highlighting and multiple bookmarks.
But the offline experience was my biggest problem. Text is automatically available offline, while maps etc need to be explicitly downloaded chapter by chapter. And when I tried to view a chapter that I hadn’t downloaded, the app crashed and couldn’t start again until I deleted it and all its data, and reinstalled. Bradt were helpful in getting to a solution, but it’s hard to recommend this app.

Helpful and informative

Excellent app — used it recently on some travels and helped us orient and make the best of our experience. So many great stops highlighted on the map!

No full screen

Pictures show up better than on Kindle but no full screen. Too much space is taken up by the banner. Generally very glitchy.
