User reviews

Not worth the download

The epitome of “this app should have been a website.”

We saw this app advertised at every site we visited in “Cathar Country” in the Southwest of France. Gave it a download, and was let down.

300+ Mb gets you some PDFs with some history on the region. The map function is barely functional. There is as far as I can tell, no audio functionality, and I can’t get any content at all to load in the “Exceptional Sights” tab.
