App is buggy

Frequently opens things I didn’t click on, or is very touchy when scrolling. Also sometimes doesn’t load things. First time downloading and trying the app. It had lots of useful information but didn’t seem all the way up to date. I can just Google to find things quicker. I’d consider keeping the app if it wasn’t so touchy and loaded everything when needed.

Go on n ink I

to. On in

Locations are unclear

It would be nice to be able to explore by allowing location and explore nearby activities. For people who are passing thru and don’t know all the neighboring towns, the app doesn’t make it easy for us to find nearby events.

Buggy

Too many bugs to usefully deal with. App doesn’t load all banners, opens pages not touched, gets stuck (unable to scroll), etc. Would be happy to use in the future if the basic usability can be improved. (I’m working with an iPhone 14+ on high speed internet - it’s not a hardware or connectivity issue). Thanks ✌️

Way more to do

I like the integration of articles and cool stuff to do near me.

For Alcoholics?

Statue of Arnold Schwarzenegger and World's largest gavel at the Supreme Court in downtown Columbus is NOT on the map.

However if you want to go get wasted the map doesn’t miss a single brewery or tap house.

Can we get an app for people that want to see the sights and not get drunk?

Failure

I just updated to your newest version and it immediately crashed. After I wrote the revie it came right up.

Great

Love it - very easy to use and has great visual content. The editorials are good reads and it gives you awesome travel inspiration! I would definitely recommend.

I cancelled the download

When you open the app the first time, you are required to download a 250 megabyte PDF file. That's it. That's the entire app. I cancelled the download because I don't want to fill my storage with a huge PDF file, then I deleted the app. It's just not user friendly.

Good Virtual Guide!

I like this virtual guide of the actual print guide. While the print guide is good, it's heavy. I am glad this was available as an app. Ohio has done a good job of putting this together. I like the videos and photos. There are some really pretty pictures that make me proud to be born and bred in Ohio. I found the events under each region helpful.

Very Informative

Must have app for anyone traveling to or through Ohio!!

Great Resource

You could spend hours perusing all the things to do/places to visit. It's an interactive e-book that mimics the actual print version I get every year. Awesome to have on my ipad.

App Doesn't Work!

Anytime I try to load the app it won't load anything. Needs an update to fix this problem.

Awful

Impossible to find event in your area. Worst app in existence... Forced pictures of areas I don't care about... Never did find events or sites in my area or things to do... One heck of size of download... A monster space user.

Not usuable

This isn't an app, it's a PDF... I was expecting an app that I could click on an area of the state, & view the calendar with events listing. Looks like a lot of ads more than anything.

Bad app good doc

I'm sure there is great info in the document but I could barely read it at all. And I didn't have the patients to zoom in that far to find out places to visit. I was excited to get the app but then very disappointed when I saw what it was.

Am I missing something?

Heard about this app on the radio- thought it sounded neat, but it really is only a slightly interactive PDF. The design of the PDF is visually pleasing, but it's not optimized for mobile. Some pages it wouldn't let me zoom to read it. Better off just doing a web search
