The free map; or even the £2 at the museum gives you the same information ### 1/5 — Bad app *2018-07-28, version 4.5.3* If you want to see anything, you have to pay. It is not useful. ### 2/5 — Poorly written *2017-12-28* Not as bad as some, but clearly written by an intern who doesn't have English as his or her first language. ### 1/5 — Disappointing. *2017-10-04* There's more detail in the museum labels than in many items in this app. Not worth it. ### 1/5 — Auch mit Vollversion völlig nutzlos *2017-09-19* Ich war so dumm, die Vollversion zu laden in der Hoffnung, man bekäme damit etwas gleichwertiges wie einen Audio Guide und eine Navigationshilfe im Museum. Mitnichten. Die Vollversion liefert lediglich einige Bildchen mehr mit Beschreibungen, die nicht besser sind als die an den Objekten. Die deutschen Übersetzungen der Beschreibungen sind ausgesprochen schlecht. Auch die Tourvorschläge sind nicht besser als die in einem ordentlichen Reiseführer. Was haben sich die Entwickler dieser App denn eingebildet? ### 1/5 — Awful!! *2017-06-28* You can't even see the names of the rooms in the map without paying for full version! ### 1/5 — 疑似骗人 *2017-06-16* 我下载和付款后，十分难用-一直无法听到语音，疑似虚假广告。不要下载不要购买！ ### 1/5 — 收钱不是问题，问题是资料太少 *2017-04-23* 和美国克利夫兰博物馆、纽约大都会艺术博物馆之类的免费app比，资料都少到令人发指。特别不建议下载，更不建议购买。收钱不是问题，问题是资料太少，少到忽略不计！ ### 1/5 — Inútil *2017-04-16, version 4.5.3* Por ver el top 20 entero tienes que pagar. Muy mala app ### 1/5 — 强行扣费么？ *2017-03-18* 我不过下载了准备看看好不好，结果直接弹出收费的窗口。然后我准备退出不买，结果收费的窗口不断地弹出来，我按着home键退出，结果就变成指纹支付成功了！赤裸裸地耍诈呀！根本来不及反应的。 ### 1/5 — Useless *2017-02-22* This app is useless cause the audio guide isn't included. I would get a refund! ### 1/5 — Rubbish app! *2016-10-14* 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 £2.99 for the full version ### 1/5 — Ohne Vollversion völlig nutzlos *2016-09-29* Wie im Titel angegeben - App runter geladen. Alles was folgt ist die Aufforderung die Vollversion für 3.99€ zu kaufen. Selbst wenn sie das wert wäre - verarschen kann ich mich selber. Dann lieber ein ehrliches Angebot einstellen! ### 1/5 — Useless App *2016-06-20* This app is basically useless. All it does is prompt you to pay extra and buy the upgraded App. I will delete immediately. ### 4/5 — Wonderful app *2016-03-10* 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 ### 1/5 — Brush Museum *2015-07-24* Avoid - even with the full version is it not up to date. Walking around the museum the app does not match the displays fully. ### 1/5 — Una sola estrella/Just one star *2015-07-22* La mayoría del contenido no es gratis. / Almost all the content is not free. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not A Free App *2024-04-08* Literally can’t even look at the map page without having to “upgrade”. Just put in the price for the app right on your App Store page, maybe why i should buy this rather than the “official” BM app (also not free), and stop with the sleazy “in-app purchases” sales tactics. ### 1/5 — Audios not available *2022-09-17* Most audios are not available in this app, it’s not worth paying. ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2022-08-01, version 4.7.645* Does not work. Can’t play the audio. ### 1/5 — Disappointing audio *2021-06-22, version 4.7.510* Read in dreary mechanical monotone. ### 1/5 — Beware of the recharge *2019-09-10* Purchased this app some time ago at the full price only to be asked again for more money and now the app is pretty much useless.... just a money making app ### 1/5 — Very Poor App *2019-05-10* waste of money!! ### 1/5 — Is this app approved by the British Museum ? *2018-12-02, version 4.5.3* It feels like a scam, asking for £3.99. ### 1/5 — Money oriented from the start *2018-11-01* I appreciate the museum is free to enter, however having only downloaded the app for the map, I was disappointed to see that you have to pay to unlock even this basic information. Everything is hidden behind in app purchases (which is always underhand) and without paying the whole app is completely useless. ### 1/5 — Free app useless *2018-10-09* This app has only very basic features which is misleading in the layout on this page. Don’t be sucked in. This content is free on a laptop. ### 1/5 — No audio *2018-07-30* App billed as same as the rentalable guide but you don’t have to return. Well, there’s no audio with this, which was my primary reason to download and buy ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Helpful *2022-04-09* Great audio ### 5/5 — Good *2021-07-01* Very good !! I can get easy short routin ### 5/5 — Well written *2021-06-29* After new update am enjoying the well written descriptions and audio. Lots to learn from this app ### 5/5 — 中文呢 *2015-01-08* 中文呢 ### 5/5 — Good App *2014-10-26* Good App!when u have Chinese version? ### 5/5 — Excellent *2014-08-24* Excellent APP ~ easy to use, full of great photos and extensive background information ### 5/5 — New British Museum App: *2014-08-15* Excellent & Comprehensive look at the BM without the walking! Highly recommended, but please ensure that you buy the upgrade, it is great value fora money. Well Done! ### 5/5 — 精彩 *2014-04-15* 文物拍摄清晰，如亲临其境。 ### 5/5 — Looks like a great app *2013-06-28* I can't wait to use before, during, and after visiting the museum. ### 5/5 — very helpful *2013-04-26* you'll never feel lost in the British museum again. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
