Beautiful city

Incomplete

Looks like a work in progress. Very little information given, map is not interactive. Save your money and use Google or Apple maps.

How do you use a map if you can’t search it?

I did the free download and opened the map. I see no way to use it though. I would want to search for my hotel to start with, then for places or services, walking directions, transit stops. Like an offline map I used in Rome. Maybe this app is exclusively for making suggestions.

La carte off line n’est pas efficace

On ne voit pas où on est localisé sur la carte, la seule raison pour laquelle j’avais payé le 5,99$.

Don’t bother if you think it’s free

App is free but to get any features you have to pay 5£. Deleted it right away.

No help at all

Free version is useless

Terrible if you don’t pay

The free version of the app is virtually useless, pretty much anything on it that could actually be helpful links you to a page to upgrade to the paid version

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry your experience was not as expected. As you may know there are many revenue models within the apps and we have decided to use the freemium model (free to download with locked content). We have never implied anything other than that. Even if you look at the app store page, it says that the app contains In App Purchases and it shows a price for each one of them. On the other hand, if you are not happy with the product we can always process a refund. Please email us to contact@etips.com and we can work it from there. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience that this might have caused you.

Very poor

I’m in Edinburgh & this app is no use at all. Maps are worse than Apple maps & the places of interest pointers are in the wrong place. Several of the images are of the wrong place! Complete rubbish & worse than useless. I want my money back!

Update: I contacted the developer but got no response.

Very useful

Ive installed this app before going to Edinburgh. I updated it yesterday and this update is great. Really helpful and cant wait to use it while walking the city.

Response from developer

Thank you very much. We are very happy that you enjoyed the app.

Poor app

Maps have very limited ability to zoom in. No capability to route from point to point. Info links do not appear to work. Waste of money.

Won't work without paying

Useless as a map without paying up front.

Offers nothing

Must pay in order for the app to be useful at all. The free version offers nothing.

Too generic information

This app has very generic and non detailed overview of the city that I find it very unhelpful. Would not have purchased it.

Poor

There must be better. Click on hotels & you get hospitals. Our hotel, the Sheraton, was not even listed or marked on the map.

Edinburgh - A Useful Travel Guide

This is a useful guide to Edinburgh; better for the first time visitor. Some aspects are not up to date (March 2011) but there are no serious deficiencies.
Is worth the price.
