Great app!

This app was great for finding the locations of everything on campus!

Good app with limitations

One major drawback to the app is that when searching for a location, you are not able to move the map from that point. The search feature locks you into a, tightly zoomed, static view of the location.

Some parking lots should also be added to the search feature so they can be searched by #.

“Spartan Village XXXX” also flood the search results when searching with a number.

The most useful feature is probably the ability to see the entrances to buildings.

The app is still lacking in iPhone X display support which is disappointing. I hope support will be added soon.

Fantastic way to figure out your new surroundings

I love the way you can use the one featured a point in a direction to know what building that is over there. I also appreciate seeing what's around me and being able to set that is a target and then have an audio queue when I'm getting closer.

Crashed

Keeps crashing after 10 seconds on my iPhone 7 plus too

Msu guide miss old version

I used to love this app. Helped me familiarize myself with the campus. After update it Crashes within seconds of opening. Constantly asks to open location services. So sad!
