### 1/5 — New app horrible

*2026-07-05, version 5.0.0*

Why did you make a worse new version?

### 1/5 — Great concept, but incredibly buggy

*2025-12-27, version 4.2.0*

Terrible bugs, can’t navigate effectively or connect to Facebook.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-01-20, version 4.2.0*

This App doesn’t, even work during the Registration Prozess . There are issues throughout the entire programming. This app is completely Useless and should be removed and entirely from the store.

### 1/5 — Terrible at give directions

*2024-03-03, version 4.2.0*

Twice here in NYC , this app has linked directly to map and taken me in the complete wrong direction!!   Not to mention old reviews!

### 5/5 — Still worth it!

*2023-06-06, version 4.2.0*

It may seem outdated but consider the pandemic lockdowns.

### 1/5 — Can't Make An Account

*2020-10-21, version 4.2.0*

The app won't let you do anything unless you sign up. So that's exactly what I was attempting to do. It then said my username was taken, that my password didn't match, and that my email was already in use. So I tried another username and a different email which it again said were already in use? Neither of my emails had any sort of mail from this app so that definitely wasn't the case. Super glitchy.

### 3/5 — Required to log in every time it loads

*2020-09-22, version 4.2.0*

The year is 2020, I shouldn’t need to enter my username/password every time I launch your app. It makes me think twice before logging in.

### 1/5 — Ça beug

*2020-09-20, version 4.2.0*

Application sans intérêt impossible de s’inscrire

### 1/5 — Horribly OUTDATED

*2020-06-08, version 4.2.0*

Not worth the effort to download. Extremely outdated and not very user friendly. Most listings are closed or no longer have websites. That includes bars, hotels and restaurants!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-04-13, version 4.2.0*

This app is trash
