### 4/5 — Great until it crashed

*2022-03-16, version 2.6.23*

Wonderful app full of information on where to stay and what to see but it crashed after a couple of weeks.  Now when I try to open the app it shuts down immediately.  I deleted the  app and downloaded it again from App Store hoping that would solve the issue but it happened again. 

Hope they sort out this problem soon as it’s one of the best apps out there.

### 4/5 — Newly downloaded

*2021-08-04, version 2.6.14*

So far so good. Seems a lot of info to make a great trip! 
However I only downloaded it today and have yet to test it properly other than to look at some of the recommendations

### 5/5 — Number 1

*2021-07-04, version 2.6.14*

Best app about NC500

### 5/5 — Nc500

*2020-10-29, version 2.6.14*

The most informative app I’ve found for the nc500  full off useful information

### 5/5 — Great app for everything NC500

*2020-08-30, version 2.6.5*

I discovered this last year 2019, just before we headed off on our first NC500 tour. I’m so glad I did. It is marvellous and I used it both for planning ahead and on route. Brilliant app, particularly the map with web links

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

*2020-07-18, version 2.5.10*

Brilliant app! So much information, easy access and fast! Cannot fault.

### 5/5 — VERY HANDY COMPANION

*2020-06-07, version 2.5.10*

I HAVE JUST DOWNLOADED THIS APP ABOUT AN HOUR AGO AND IM NOT EVEN HALF WAY THROUGH, THIS APP IS FULL OF INFO AND LOTS TO SEE CANT WAIT TILL LOCKDOWN IS OVER SO I CAN PUT THIS TO TEST ON THE ROAD.......HOPE IT GETS UPDATED AS GIME GOES

### 5/5 — Not your usual travel app!

*2019-12-03, version 2.5.10*

If you’re going to download a travel/tourism app for an excursion into the Highlands, this is the one to go for. Packed with crucial info about local attractions and services, there are also various themed routes you can follow (for example if you want to see lots of castles!) or you can create your journey around specific sites you’d like to see, which gives you more independence and can cater to your individual needs. The app highlights must-see locations, but also makes it easy to discover hidden gems and build them into your travels. 

 The thing that really sets it apart for me though is the audio content. The app is filled with local music, as well as folklore and stories which have been passed down through generations of people living and working along the NC500. We were really excited to do this famous route, and the audio channels made a long family car journey with 3 kids and a dog much more bearable! Will be going back next year!

### 5/5 — Highly Recommend

*2019-09-19, version 2.5.8*

If your planning to do the NC500 this app is a must! This app shared some amazing view points and beach stop offs that we added to our journey along the way! Easy to use!

### 5/5 — Amazing App for businesses & travelers

*2019-07-18, version 2.4.9*

Very intuitive, easy to use, covers everything you need as NC500 business owner and more important travelers. The interactive map with its multiple option is a joy to use. Well done guys, you definitely raised the standard.

### 5/5 — Experience

*2019-04-10, version 2.3.2*

My second time around the North Coast 500 and the helped hugely. So much I didn’t realise I had missed the first time around. Highly recommend.

### 1/5 — Map problem

*2021-08-08, version 2.6.14*

The map shows the route but doesn’t show any attractions

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2021-08-07, version 2.6.14*

When you click on POIs on the map, sometimes nothing happens. And it doesn’t give coordinates of locations.

### 1/5 — Download issues for maps

*2020-08-24, version 2.6.5*

I’ve downloaded mps (allegedly) however I have now idea where they have been downloaded too, I cannot search my iPad as I have no idea what they are called. Come on guys this is a basic function

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-06-08, version 2.4.9*

Just a series of swipe pages some with options to save but goes nowhere. Deleted.

### 1/5 — Not much content

*2019-03-21, version 2.3.2*

Quite a boring app, needs some work to make it worthwhile

### 2/5 — Route Error

*2021-05-31, version 2.6.14*

You appear to have an error in your route map leaving and approaching Inverness.

### 2/5 — Good but....

*2020-09-26, version 2.6.14*

The app is great and allows you to plan your journey without missing any hidden gems.
For some reason I am unable to see all tours (even  after ticking them all in settings) which means I am missing out on lists of low level walks etc...

### 3/5 — Good to a point…

*2024-06-01, version 2.10.6*

The map in the app shows the official route, however, when you ask the app to provide route guidance it shows the fastest route. On the western side this is often NOT via the NC500… Would also be good if the user could add their own destinations (e.g. overnight stops).

### 4/5 — Very helpful

*2024-09-09, version 2.10.6*

Since arriving on NC500 i’ve not used anything else for navigation. The only niggle, hence 4 stars, is the filters always reset when the app is closed. Having to select personal choices each time I use the app is annoying. 

Yes you can set them in settings but they don’t transfer to the map anyway.

### 4/5 — NC500

*2023-06-04, version 2.6.32*

Very good app, but I wish I could have access to a bigger map.

*2023-10-28, version 2.10.6*

Slowly but surely collecting information about what we want to see and do in September 2024 plus Orkney and sky in the same trip a real good app to fall back on thank you 👨‍🦳s p c

### 5/5 — Guided musical tour of north coast

*2023-07-06, version 2.6.32*

App stays to the point, no advert no false advocacy.
Incredible well curated and meaningful viewpoints, villages and ruins listing on a live and visual map.

Most important of all, the music.
You would not want to hear anything else on the highlands and coast but the soulful Gaelic music.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-07-20, version 2.6.25*

If it wasn’t for this app I wouldn’t have done half the stuff I have  my dog has loved it to all the amazing beeches and walking trails it’s been great doing the Nc500  5 stars if I could give more I would
