## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Do not pay: app crashing

*2021-08-02, version 1.8*

The iOS app would simply crash each time I tried to play the guided tour I payed for. Not worth the time or money.

### 1/5 — Unable to use full tour

*2020-04-04, version 1.2*

Unable to download/purchase the full tour.  Only demo available.  Disappointing.  When his the $ sign for full tour, it says puschasimf but then nothing happens.

### 4/5 — No Carplay support

*2022-06-27, version 2.1*

Audio and gps were good, needs Carplay support

### 4/5 — Good

*2020-07-07*

Good

**Developer response:** We're so glad you enjoyed the tour! Thanks for the review!

### 5/5 — Excellent way to do a tour

*2023-09-17, version 2.2*

We decided to go to Newport RI but did not know what to see. I found out about this app from a search of things to do.  I am so glad I did this app gives you turn to turn directions and explains all the sites.  We have a dog so we could not go in a group tour so this was a great option and great information.  Highly recommend this app and tour.  Well worth the time.

### 5/5 — Mansion and Ocean Tour

*2023-05-16, version 2.2*

This was very informative and we learned a lot. I loved that we could drive and stop to take pictures. Very well narrated

### 5/5 — Great idea for a rainy day

*2021-08-19, version 1.8*

I saw parts of Newport I would’ve missed completely without this app. Great scenic views & informative back stories. 

Kudos!

### 5/5 — Informative

*2021-05-14, version 1.7*

This was a very good app. Well worth the money. All I did was drive and the app gave directions and appropriate information. If you are going to do a self tour, then this app is for you.

### 5/5 — Thanks for great information!

*2019-07-10, version 1.0*

Your App made our trip to Newport very enjoyable. The Cliff Walk tour was especially nice as we had the time to really focus on the information & follow the more information links. I definitely recommend.

### 5/5 — A Gem!

*2019-06-20, version 1.0*

So glad we used the App while in Newport. We drove all around, never got lost and knew what to look for! Good stories too. 

If we were driving a little faster than suggested, it would start talking about the next stop before the first was done. But, we soon figured out how to find spots to pull over and listen to stops that we found interesting.

In the next day, we walked on Bellvue instead of driving and used the App again to listen to stories as we walked.

### 5/5 — Revolutionary app ... saved $70 bus tickets

*2019-06-20, version 1.0*

It was such a new idea and very low cost. So, we decided to try it. We paid for the app, put my phone on the stand in our own car and started. It showed a route line to follow and had geo circles drawn on that line. Every time, our car went through the geo circle, the app started talking about that location. It was like magic. It reminded me of using the Google Map for the first time.

The stories were nice. The first few minutes of driving took some time to get used to but after that it was easy.

Overall, two of us did not have to take the bus and pay $70. Very good !
