## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 2/5 — Inaccurate information

*2023-07-28*

If solely using this app to plan your visit, double check with the actual venue on times.  We based our entire day off of times posted in this app for an event and it turns out it was wildly inaccurate. We missed out on something we looked forward to, and planned an entire day around.

### 3/5 — Nice but could be better

*2024-10-02*

Downloaded hoping to plan our family trip to Salem. Wanted to be able to pin locations & events we definitely wanted to see. App allows you to add things to favorites but does let you tag only those items in the map for easy navigation. I want to be able to look at the map and see only items I pined to plan our routes. 
Also many places I tried to look up and they did even come up. Like Salem PZA Pizza, Funhouse Donuts, Salem Flea Market, just to name a few.

### 3/5 — Still missing critical information

*2023-08-15*

When you hit the "Learn More" Button for example for the Salem Jazz Festival the button will not always take you to the website for the event, it will take you to Facebook even if the event has a website. I understand that if an event doesn't have it's own website and instead the information is on a social media platform instead, then it does make sense to have the button link to that social media platform. However, if the event does have it's own website it should link to that website instead as not everyone has an account with every social media platform. Also, instead of the "learn more" button it should instead say "learn more at" and display the links and social media platforms on the event pages so people may choose which links to get more information on the events as not all links are the same. Just like they did for the "Read More" on the Salem Merry-time Fest the website link was included.

### 5/5 — Download In Town!

If you are visiting Salem you need this app. It will give you the most up-to-date information and quick links for reservations and online tickets.

### 5/5 — Pretty Awesome App

Just downloaded it due to me taking a trip to salem this coming October. From what I can tell it’s pretty decent. Kinda simplistic layout, but overall nice aesthetic.
