User reviews

Game changer for history class

Can’t believe this doesn’t have more recommendations online. My class was more engaged with this than anything else I’ve done in six months.

Wow

I am so pleased with this app. I was stationed in Berlin in 1989. I was there when it was occupied and the night they opened the borders I was standing on the walk in front of Brandenburg Gate!!! This app is amazing!!! Thank you

Absolutely amazing!

I did this outside and it was just amazing. To see history from both perspectives as if you are right there. You can almost feel the emotions. It was beautiful. I highly recommend this. I expanded mine to full size and you can walk right up to the wall, vehicles, people and objects to see the detail. At one point, you are in a crowd of protestors. This should be how history is taught.

Room for improvement

Could not find the wall!

Highly recommend

Super cool app. Used it while visiting Berlin; being able to see where the wall was in real time where ever I went was an extraordinary experience. Would highly recommend for anyone, from history buffs to kids wanting a unique visual experience of Berlin.
