### 5/5 — Delightful!!

*2026-07-17*

We had no trouble at all with the app. Loved how we could be driving along and hear “pull up just past this white fence..,”.  More than just locating houses, we heard history and sweet stories about this older part of Palm Springs.  Highly recommend!

### 4/5 — Palm Springs audio tour guide

*2026-04-07*

Generally, the app was good. My two criticisms are: 1) it told you where to start the tour. However, it didn’t tell you which way to drive when you started the tour. Being totally unfamiliar with Palm Springs it took us awhile to get pointed in the right direction. 2) Compared to Google Maps it is a little clunky. It would be nice if you could preview the entire tour to become better acquainted with what you are seeing, and when you are seeing it. If you have the time. It would be worthwhile to do the tour twice.

### 2/5 — Map Does Not Display on CarPlay

*2025-10-12*

From the FAQ:
“Audio playback is compatible with Apple CarPlay, and you can listen to all of the audio stories through CarPlay. For the map, continue to use the phone screen simultaneously with the audio. Full map and navigational features on Apple CarPlay are coming soon.”
