Not quite usable
The app is not stable. I start listening to the audio for a landmark, then switch to the maps or camera app, and the audio plays for a couple of minutes and then crashes (most likely) as the audio stops, and when I go back to the app it asks me to buy the app again. How could it forget that I purchased the audio? It’s not impossible to resume the audio, but it’s cumbersome when it keeps happening every 5 minutes. I would say it’s not usable on location, when you want to orient yourself or take pictures.

Seems good narration but keep being asked to rebut
I haven’t yet used this audio tour in Venice I’m listening to it in anticipation of a future visit. The commentaries seem interesting and I’m enjoying the parts I am able to listen to.
However my narrations keep being cut at a 5 min “trial period” despite me having forked out £3.99 to buy the app. So I am frustrated & annoyed.
I have had a response from the developer to say I am on the old version of the app - but as my apps update automatically and there is no update available that I can see this is not helping. I’m now in Venice using a guidebook :(

Issues with launching app.
Pretty much every time I opened the app; I was asked to ‘buy guide’ even though I had already done so. After many attempts and re launches of the app it did work. The guide was informative but would have appreciated more of a ‘walk round’ the area or building being described.
Impressive audio guide for Venice
Map with geolocation, you can see the interesting places near you, or search in a list, then read or listen to the guide. Very helpful the fact that works offline.
The guide with most content in the store
I’ve tried several apps but most of them either had just a few lines of text for very important places like St. Mark plaza, or they just copied something from Wikipedia, read by a computerized voice. This app had at least 5 minutes audio guides for everything, including cool places we didn’t even know existed but which had interesting stories and were definitely worth checking out
