### 1/5 — This is a joke

*2018-06-24, version 3.0.15*

The developers say they’ve improved the app. I shudder to think what it was like before. Where do I start?  Bad English throughout this app shows the sloppy approach to the whole. There is minimal detail. Itineraries are basic tours with no detail and temple after temple predominantly take up the section. The information that is provided is laid out in a continuous scroll that is hard to read and hardly worth reading as it is so basic. You can’t save the areas you like (the save button doesn’t work). The hotel listings don’t show (some message about data). There is nothing on particular shops... in short, an app is meant to make things easy, provide invaluable information and make you wonder how you would have navigated things without it. This left me confused and frustrated- I am presuming I will have my money returned!

### 1/5 — Unreadable map

*2017-01-02, version 3.0.14*

Does not zoom

### 1/5 — False advertising

*2016-02-03*

Title says offline maps, but to get those you have to make a $5.49 in app purchase. Don't bother with this junk.

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2015-09-01, version 3.0.10*

I had high hopes for this App, after I spent $2.99 to get more info on ChiangMi.  Sadly, the information is incomplete and I get much better answers and suggestions from TripAdvisor.

### 1/5 — Free---Not really!

*2014-10-27, version 3.0.8*

Downloaded the app to see if there is anything new I can learn about ChiangMai. Has info about hotels and food but doesn't tell you where it is unless you download the maps. Because it ask for my Apple password I'm guessing I would have to pay for the maps but no where does it say how much the maps cost. Worthless without the maps, no clue how much the maps cost?!?!  DELETE!!!

### 1/5 — Un beau livre d'images… mais ce n'est pas un guide

*2013-10-22, version 3.0.4*

De superbes images, oui mais les listes d'hôtels, restaurants, lieux à visiter… sont extrêmement courtes et donc fort peu utiles. De plus même sur un iPad mini le niveau de zoom des cartes est trop faible et permet à peine de lire les noms de rues et pourtant je pense avoir une bonne vue. Un guide de voyage à ne surtout pas acheter et contrairement à ce qui est dit, il faudra continuer à porter un guide "papier". Dommage !

### 1/5 — don't buy

*2012-01-25, version 2.1.2*

far to worth the price ! don't buy ! uncomplete , unuseful maps etc etc ..

### 1/5 — This app crashes all the time

*2011-04-17, version 2.0.1*

This app crashes all the time and contains very few useful information. I wasted my $. Don't recommend to buy.
