### 1/5 — Incorrect / incomplete

*2021-06-24, version 1.0*

Trails are missing from the trails page.   For example, the Far View Sites Complex is listed on the website hiking trails page but not in the app. There are discrepancies regarding closures. In the app, the Spruce Canyon Trail is listed as closed. On the website it is not listed as closed. On the website, the Soda Canyon Overlook Trail is listed as closed. In the app, it is not.

### 5/5 — Download multiple times but it’s worth it!

*2020-09-04, version 1.0*

This app downloaded in what seemed like 4 rounds of packets. After the first packet downloaded, I had to close it out and restart. Each time it went a bit faster and the MB decreased. BUT ITS WORTH IT!
 
The Mesa top loop audio tour with TJ Atsye was informative, entertaining, and deeply connecting. Highly recommend! 

Ps. There’s wifi at the visitor center for the downloading!

### 5/5 — Fantastic Audio Tour

*2020-09-04, version 1.0*

I’m not sure when this app was created but it was a WONDERFUL way to explore the park while some of the tours were closed during COVID.  You need to download and open the app when you have WiFi access because otherwise it will not run in the park.  There were signs near the museum that told us about the app and where to find WiFi access while in the park. The Mesa Top Loop audio tour was well done—I recommend it to anyone prepping for a trip to Mesa Verde, even when the park is fully reopened!

### 1/5 — Not working on iPhone 11 Pro - iOS 13.4.1

*2020-05-25, version 1.0*

I have downloaded this app to use it while visiting Mesa Verde national park. The app freezes on the home page and we can’t access any of the information. I deleted and downloaded again, I restarted my phone, to no avail.
