### 1/5 — Kein Bild funktioniert nicht

*2019-08-29*

Es wird kein Google Bild angezeigt.

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2019-08-20*

Mit wird von der App gesagt dass ich kein Internet habe und sie deswegen das Bild nicht laden kann, obwohl die Verbindung sehr gut ist. Bitte repariert es so schnell wie möglich

### 3/5 — Fun, but needs more variety

*2019-07-02*

This game is a lot of fun at first, but there are too many locations in the same set of countries:  United States, Mexico, Italy, United Kingdom and Norway.  Occasionally there will locations “off the beaten path” but it gets tiresome visiting the same countries over and over again.  Branch out a little!

### 3/5 — SCAM!

*2019-02-20, version 3.0*

Love this game but after you buy it, they only give you 12 free levels. You have to pay for the rest.

### 1/5 — Not the real GeoGuesser

*2019-02-19, version 3.0*

It has street names on the road. Stupid.

### 1/5 — Doesnt work at all

*2017-11-12, version 3.0*

All i can see is black screen. No photoes on any level and the poing in the ocean. What did i pay for?

### 5/5 — What's with this games obsession with Boston?

*2017-07-14*

I'm only half joking by saying half the places in the 99 cents round are in Boston and there's 3 that are in the exact same spot in Italy.

### 1/5 — Very buggy

*2017-04-02, version 2.10*

I just bought it and cannot get the second game to load. Tried several times. I would not advise getting it.

### 1/5 — Won't start

*2016-12-27, version 2.10*

I tried to connect to Facebook and now the game will not open

### 2/5 — Good at first

*2016-08-31*

4/5 locations are in the US in the same cities over and over again. Oh, and you have to pay for the next set of awful levels
