## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Doesn’t seem to work for me on iPhone

*2025-09-27, version 11*

Standing at the sites, and having done an update, reloaded app and downloaded the additional data files, I hear a chime sound but only see faint grid of dots when pointing phone at ground, but no images.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-07-17, version 11*

Doesn’t work

### 2/5 — Maybe not supported ?

*2025-05-11, version 11*

The app seems to be missing some sites, the server handling the content download is flakey so you end up having to download the same content multiple times. Then when you have downloaded it the AR doesn’t work anyway.

### 5/5 — Adds dimension to a tour

*2023-12-17*

My dad and I downloaded this app as a part of our Outer Hebrides tour. This augmented reality gave us a great tourist stop with a decent hike, and felt like a respectful way to gain a museum experience in protected land.

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2023-08-12, version 11*

The app is excellent.  It really helps bring to life the remains of the ancient sites.  

Top tip for other users….. We did have problems getting one of the sites to scan because cattle had been scratching themselves against the post and hair from their coat was wound round the nails holding the QR code in place.  This stopped the scanner working.  It took us a while to realise what the problem was but once we pulled the hair away the scan worked immediately.

### 5/5 — One of a kind

*2021-08-05, version 1.2*

Highly recommend this app for anyone visiting Uist, slick and user friendly design, full of really useful local tips (not just for archeology). This is a meticulously researched app and suitable for all ages, it’s easy to use and there is no other app like this in the Hebrides, a powerful augmented reality experience- you’re missing out if you don’t have it!

### 5/5 — A whole new reason to visit

*2021-07-30, version 1.2*

Excellent app, beautifully designed and full of information and insight. Yet another reason to visit Uist - wish the app had been around when I last visited! So much to learn, and accessible to the whole family.

### 5/5 — Fun, educational and easy to use

*2021-07-29, version 1.1*

This is a great app. It’s so easy to navigate around the different features. Lots of interesting information and the augmented reality feature at Cladh Hallan is fascinating.

### 5/5 — A great beginning

*2021-07-28, version 1.1*

I have used some features on the app which seem to amaze me, can’t wait to use it at the sites in Uist. 👍

### 5/5 — Innovative, Informative and Accessible

*2021-07-28, version 1.1*

Great app offering accessible and interactive engagement with Uist’s archeology. I found the shop, museum, and restaurant information really useful in my visit.
