### 4/5 — If you can afford the bags…

*2026-07-29*

If you can afford the bags, maybe you can afford spending $7-11 US per destination city… and then actually participate in the suggestions! 
I would love to see what the app has to offer for San Francisco native. But the price tag definitely keeps me away. 
Oh sell! Every once in awhile they will offer a free city guide, which is nice, and keeps me around. But I have noticed these becoming more rare. 
The suggestions themselves are likewise Far out of my vacationing budget. 

All in all it is an amusing app when you have to wait in a queue.

**Developer response:** Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.
We are pleased to inform you that the Paris City Guide is offered complimentary on an ongoing basis. In addition, we regularly extend complimentary access to other City Guides as part of special promotions. These offers are most often announced through our push notifications, so we warmly encourage you to keep them enabled to stay informed.
Best regards,
The Louis Vuitton City Guide Team

### 3/5 — Super appli jusqu’à présent..

*2026-07-23*

J’utilise l’application depuis plus de 10 ans 
J’ai acheté une douzaine de guides tout fonctionnait très bien et depuis 1 mois impossible de mettre à jour les guides . Malgré des échanges peu réactifs avec le service client cela ne fonctionne toujours pas . 
Mon voyage arrive j’ai donc du commander le guide papier qui n’est pas du tout aussi pratique que l’application. 
Une maison comme la vôtre devrait réussir à résoudre ces bugs.

**Developer response:** Bonjour, 
Notre échange est en cours via email, et nous allons trouver une solution rapidement pour vous permettre de télécharger vos guides.
Pourriez-vous nous transmettre via email des captures d'écran du souci rencontré (notamment le message d'erreur), pour que nous puissions bien le comprendre et donc y remédier ? Aussi, avez-vous essayé de restaurer vos guides, via le menu "+" de l'application ? 
Bien à vous, 
L'équipe Louis Vuitton City Giude

### 1/5 — Numerous Spelling & Language errors

*2026-05-16, version 4.14.0*

Why so many spelling and language mistakes in the Cape Town & Singapore guides. It’s unacceptable from LV.

### 5/5 — Très bien et bon service client

*2026-05-05*

Après un pb le service client s’est montré réactif et a permis de réparer le bug

**Developer response:** Bonjour, Nous sommes ravis d'avoir pu vous aider. Merci pour votre retour !

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2026-05-05*

I initially loved this app & used it above all other travel apps… but for quite a while now, the app says that there are new versions available for my cities & every single time I try to download the updates, the download fails… including for my home city of Lisbon, which is extra frustrating!

**Developer response:** Hello,
We are here to help you resolve the technical issue you are experiencing. Could you please send us an email at this address: editions_louisvuitton.fr@louisvuitton.com ? This will allow us to assist you so that you can then access our City Guide.
Best regards,
The Louis Vuitton City Guide Team

### 1/5 — APP Totalement défaillante : à fuir

*2026-04-22, version 4.13.2*

Malgré de nombreux échanges avec le service guide LV il est strictement impossible d’effectuer la mise à jour d’un guide acheté il ya un an. Sans parler du fait que suite au conseil de ce service, la désinstallation de l’App qui devait permettre la restauration des achats  fut un échec complet ! Et, en consultant les avis les plus critiques, on peut lire que de nombreux acheteurs ont le même problème !! Scandaleux !

### 1/5 — Not sharing guides

*2026-02-07, version 4.12.0*

Unable to share the in-app purchase of guides with my Apple Family. Apple Support couldn’t help and said the developers of the app should fix it.

### 4/5 — Ottime guide

*2026-01-21, version 4.12.0*

Problemi risolti, ottima app

### 3/5 — Maj

*2026-01-19*

Les guides sont ils à jour dans leur dernières versions ? Par exemple Shanghai

**Developer response:** Bonjour, 
Nos guides digitaux sont actualisés deux fois par an : au début de l’été puis en fin d’année. 
Par exemple, celui de Shanghai a été mis à jour pour la dernière fois le 12 décembre 2025.

### 2/5 — La restauration d’achat ne marche pas.

*2026-01-01, version 4.12.0*

Depuis les débuts de l’application il y a de nombreuses années maintenant, j’utilise le LV City Guide. 

Je regrette qu’il ne soit pas possible de restaurer les achats via une adresse mail. J’ai du changer de téléphone et de cloud, je perds donc tous mes City Guide virtuels achetés ! 

Je n’ai pas eu ce problème avec d’autres application en changeant de Cloud… 

Je dois me rendre à Bangkok et j’aurai aimé acheter le guide virtuel, comme j’ai pu le faire à chacun de mes voyages…
