### 3/5 — iOS 13 problemi

*2019-09-20, version 1.41*

Su iOS 13 L’app crash’a appena si schiaccia “Explore”... per il resto unica app decente sullo store di questo tipo!!

### 4/5 — Ottima app, ma problemi con la mappa

*2019-04-23, version 1.31*

L’applicazione è ottima. A partire dall’idea allo sviluppo grafico è stato fatto tutto alla perfezione. L’unico problema che ho riscontrato sul mio iPhone 6s, è che quando cerco di visualizzare un’ampia porzione di mappa, l’app mi crasca. 
Inoltre anche il fatto che l’applicazione non venga più aggiornata da mesi non fa ben sperare. Spero che gli sviluppatori non abbiano abbandonato l’app

### 1/5 — Crasha

*2018-06-24, version 1.31*

Crasha in continuazione

### 4/5 — B

*2018-06-06, version 1.31*

Ultimamente continua a crashare, peccato

### 1/5 — Crash

*2018-06-02, version 1.3*

Aggiornamento di ieri... oggi va in crash!

### 5/5 — Idea fantastica

*2018-03-05, version 1.0*

L’app è semplice, intuitiva e bella, fa quello che deve. È poco reattiva nella mappa ma per il resto va alla grande. Sarebbe fantastico avere nuove funzioni come la visualizzazione in tempo reale del livello di rumore o aggiungere tramite ARKit una sorta di radar visivo per individuare la fonte del suono. Continuate cosi!

### 5/5 — L’app che non c’era! STUPENDA!

*2018-03-04, version 0.99*

Fantastica! Un’app semplice, intuitiva e che centra il suo scopo! Siamo circondati da rumori molesti, da inquinamento acustico e, per i miei studi, necessitavo di qualcosa di così accessibile! È efficace e fa ciò per cui è stata creata: mancava un’app simile sullo store. Unici due consigli:
1) da migliorare l’intuitività del tap per registrare (farei un “timer” a colori circolare con le trame identiche a quelle di rilevazione e che indichi il trascorrere dei secondi mentre si registra... a volte non me ne accorgo!);
2) ASSOLUTAMENTE da inserire lo “share” sui social network per sensibilizzare gli utenti! Sarebbe fantastico condividere i risultati dei luoghi sui social per far vedere a tutti in che inferno ci troviamo! 
Bravi! Continuate così e perfezionate questo gioiellino!
