## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work- can’t buy anything

*2021-06-13, version 14*

If it doesn’t work when I need it, what’s the point? I’ve also lost old city guide purchases. Extremely disappointing failure to deliver a phenomenal product.

### 1/5 — App Keeps Crashing

*2019-08-20, version 14*

I’ve never been past the opening page. The app crashes whether I choose to “Skip” or “Register”

### 1/5 — Completely useless

*2017-05-30, version 6.3*

The app only shows 3 items and the rest are unlocked for purchasing. Completely useless when trying to boost a new app. The user and content is barely there. It provides very limited recommendations for each city before suggesting you purchase the additional content.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear that. We display 20 free locations in each city. For 9.99 you get access to over 2,000 carefully handpicked and reviewed locations covering 20 cities. Not a bad deal.

### 1/5 — Never loads

*2016-06-09, version 4.4*

Downloaded it and tried to open it and it just has a spinning wheel and says "good things are worth waiting for" forever. Never opens never stops loading, tried multiple times before deleting it.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2019-08-23, version 14*

Seems like an advertising company bought an old crappy travel app and put some new pictures in it.  Then they ask for money for a year subscription.

### 2/5 — App is buggy and unintuitive, info is ok.

*2016-06-17, version 4.5*

I used this app in Berlin, and it gave me some good places to go, but it was hamstrung by constant crashes and a host of random bugs.  And although it provides quick blurbs about places, there's no in depth knowledge. I found myself going back and forth to Yelp to find more info.  That's not acceptable when I'm paying a premium for the info.  The content and presentation need to be tightened up before I would buy another city guide.

### 3/5 — Bug fixes!!

*2016-11-09, version 5.3*

The locations are great! But the app has major bugs and often gets stuck on a white screen when I open it. It defiantly needs  and some settings/functions improvement. I'd like to view the locations without having to have internet or service too. 

Just needs improvements and bug fixes (and location updates- some are closed)

**Developer response:** thanks for your message. we have since released a new version which solves the issues raised.

### 4/5 — Excited to discover more of nyc

*2019-06-26, version 13*

... but after some bugs are fixed - app crashes when registering (specifically when using autofill), and am unable to upload a profile pic due to an “error”. Otherwise, am super excited to use Lost iN! Will definitely be building my itinerary here instead of just writing up a list in my notes.

### 5/5 — 🌐 beautiful designed and well thought out

*2020-08-25, version 14*

I love lostin so so much! I got to discover hidden gems in Seoul last summer and I couldn’t thank this app enough!!! 👩‍💻🖤 invest worth the 9.99 for a year for all of the cities

### 5/5 — Like travelling with your cool cousin

*2018-12-13, version 12*

I love this app. I had some travel around Europe coming up, so I figured instead of doing hours of research and reading through guides of places I’d already been to, I should spring for this and save some time. I’m so glad I did. 

My travel style is to try and find the little hidden gems of the city, those shops and cafes that may not be high rent, but are on the cutting edge. Lost In basically read my mind and has an amazing assortment of places that each are endlessly facinating, but together really makes you feel like you’re traveling with a hip resident of the city than on the well trodden tourist routes. 

The only thing I’d recommend is for the app to add an offline mode for selected cities. Not having pictures of the places can be a let down, but it still is functional without internet so I’m not detracting any stars

## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — If you’re over Cereal, Wallpaper...

*2018-07-08, version 10*

Great alternative to the two listed above with amazing recommendations. I am also from NYC and have visited Paris/UK many times prior but the guide gave me new perspective to the cities! Great curation, download now or go buy the print.

### 5/5 — The Ultimate Travel Hack!!!

*2018-06-22, version 10*

I cant even tell you how much time I’ve saved by using this in Copenhagen, Stockholm, Los Angeles, and London. Also I am a new yorker and can seriously vet how good the suggestions are. Very very cool. The categories and places are not your typical touristy vibe. They are actually places that your coolest friends would suggest.

### 5/5 — Some really cool places

*2016-08-02, version 4.5*

Good way to discover places which wouldn't have been possible otherwise

### 5/5 — Love this!!

*2015-05-02, version 1.1*

I love that I can trust the insight given on this app. It's so reliable, and has saved me so much time and effort!
