Spent a few hours with the App and the Gastown tour-absolutely love the historical facts. Looking forward to continuing my tour of Vancouver. Thanks! And good luck with expansion to new cities. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2016-08-10, version 1.1* Great app so well done can't wait for more. Love Vancouver history ### 5/5 — Great app! *2016-07-27, version 1.1* Cool photos and features! ### 5/5 — Great app *2016-07-21* Great app ### 5/5 — Great history of Vancouver *2016-07-21* Easy way to explore history with photos and descriptions ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Blue screen of nothing *2018-11-21, version 2.07* I logged in, came to a page titled cities, and nothing. Just a blank blue screen. ### 1/5 — Unusable *2018-05-27, version 2.03* It crashes constantly. It allows me to look at one photo. If I try to look at a second photo, it shuts down. Every. Single. Time. Totally unstable and unusable app. ### 2/5 — Difficult to navigate *2022-05-04, version 3.8.2* So I’m trying to find information on the Japanese internment camp that was in my town and the only info I’m getting is from the internments during WW1 ### 2/5 — Vae Victis *2019-08-10, version 2.15* The European settlers that made Canada were not colonizers. They were pioneers. They created something from nothing. Woe to the conquered. ### 4/5 — Check the addresses *2021-06-25, version 3.6.2* This is an interesting app which helps bring history alive. I look forward to using it in my travels. A word re accuracy is needed, though: for instance, in a city I know well, Red Deer, Alberta, the modern building which contains a legal firm (Warren Sinclair) is located at 4911 - 51 Street, but the historical Arlington Hotel was located at 4905 -51 Avenue. ### 4/5 — Update *2017-01-08, version 1.1* I really do love this app but I wish the dev team would release more updates. It would be nice to swipe between pictures on the tours as opposed to having to tap the 'next' arrow. Also when a picture is clicked moving it around like a clipboard type feature can get kind of annoying but can be fixed with the swiping next feature. Dates as to when the new tours are coming out would be nice too. The developers could release one every fortnight or one every month. Hope this gives you guys some insight. Really like the app! ### 4/5 — Awesome and saw it on tv *2016-08-10, version 1.1* I didn't give it a 5 since I didn't use the app yet :P yeah I'm a savage.. But looks kewl! ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2023-06-14, version 3.12.1* I never cared about history or thought I did until I made this app with my historian friend. The value of remembering the past and digging deep into the stories that exist everywhere we look is impossible to explain… try it for yourself ### 5/5 — Great! *2021-12-16, version 3.7.0* I love this app, great for seeing the history of our local towns! ### 5/5 — Neat! *2020-11-27, version 3.4.2* Just a super interesting concept that keeps me learning as I wander town 😊 ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome free app! *2020-06-28, version 3.2.0* This app is fun for the whole family! ### 5/5 — Pretty cool app *2019-08-02, version 2.15* Love the updates and the content! Thanks guys! ### 5/5 — Great app! *2019-08-01, version 2.15* Cool app, cool idea - interesting way to explore a city. Some interface bugs but there’s a lot of fun information on it. Did Vancouver tours on the cheap because of it ! ### 5/5 — Must have if you’re a fan of before and after *2019-04-27, version 2.14* I enjoy history and travel, and often try to imagine how places were in the past. This app has it covered if you like to see how places have changed due to time and progress. I’ve learned about my home city as well as places I’ve visited and locations I intend to visit. New spots are being added all the time and I’m looking forward to the pasts that are to come. Thanks and keep it up! ### 5/5 — Awesome App *2018-09-20, version 2.07* I love this app. Easiest way to see so many historic photos of Vancouver. The map option is great. I love being able to compare the present with the past for all photos. Keep up the good work. ### 5/5 — Really enjoying this app *2018-08-26, version 2.06* I saw this app promoted on Instagram and decided to give it a shot. I live just south of Aurora and I had a great time exploring the historic places. I can’t wait to see other cites and towns close to me get on board with the app. Great work! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2016-09-15, version 1.1* Can't wait for more and hope more locations are done soon. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
