### 3/5 — Be careful upgrading to Gold

*2026-05-02, version 3.3.3*

If you want to upgrade to “Gold” status, you choose between monthly, yearly, or one off. Monthly is $3.99 however, if you choose the monthly option and click to purchase the subscription, it changes to weekly. If one were to proceed quickly, one would not even notice until their next credit card bill. Very sneaky and unethical. Web developer’s response was the monthly rate is based on your location? The app does not specify.

### 3/5 — ?

*2025-07-01*

Почему только на немецком языке? Невозможно установить ни на французском, ни на Английском

### 1/5 — Ultimately useless.

*2024-05-21, version 3.0.7*

Ruined by continual advertising pop ups that are impossible to cancel - at times when you actually need critical info about routes. The Paris Metro is what Uber was invented for, stress free, almost immediate, and quite inexpensive.

### 1/5 — Ads are a problem

*2024-04-08, version 3.0.5*

Waiting for 2 or 3 ads every time you need to look up a train is not practical. We did better using Google maps because the speed was much faster on Google. I will not use this app in the future. I don’t mind occasional ads or banner ads, but this app is completely disabled until videos finish playing.

### 1/5 — Vor langer Zeit……

*2024-03-02*

Vor langer Zeit, war dass mal eine sehr gute App, die man für kleines Geld kaufen konnte.
Mittlerweile gibt es ein überteuertes Abo oder viel Werbung.  An Funktionalität hat hat die App deutlich eingebüßt, bis hin zum Funktionsverlust.

### 5/5 — Great

*2024-02-04, version 3.0.5*

Great map

### 5/5 — Bert helpful

*2024-01-08*

Great app to help navigating Paris Metro!
Ads are a bit annoying, but it is impossible to get lost with the routes provided by the app.

### 3/5 — No alternative routes

*2024-01-07, version 3.0.4*

Would be great if it offered alternative routes. Would be great if it showed which exits are best for attractions and mainline station links rather than just street names.

### 1/5 — Charged me even though I canceled

*2023-11-28, version 3.0.4*

Auto charged me a week even though I canceled in time

### 1/5 — Skip it

*2023-11-10, version 3.0.3*

I opened the app for the first time and after 2 seconds an add started. I hard closed the app and the same thing happened. Tried one more time just to be sure and then I deleted the app. It’s not useful to have to wait for ads that I would never watch so I will continue to use the maps app for transit info.

### 1/5 — Occasional User

*2026-03-11, version 3.2.4*

I want an app to tell me where I am and how to find a subway or bus to my destination.

### 1/5 — Add horrible!!

*2025-04-05, version 3.2.2*

Too many ads for a tourist. All in French. Any mercy?

### 1/5 — M.

*2025-03-24, version 3.2.2*

App in German. Can’t change languages.

### 1/5 — Beware fraud

*2025-03-17, version 3.2.2*

Beware fraud

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2025-02-27, version 3.2.2*

Every time you open it or change look at the route you get ads.
Not helpful when you’re on the move trying to figure out what line to take

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2024-12-02*

It’s hilariously bad

### 1/5 — All fake ratings

*2024-11-27, version 3.2.1*

I understand you need to make money. But showing ads every 3 seconds will NOT make me buy your app.

### 1/5 — Clunky

*2024-10-07, version 3.1.0*

This app feels clunky and I find it easier to use google maps.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2024-10-06, version 3.1.0*

This is one of the most frustrating apps to use for anyone trying to navigate around Paris. While the core functionality is useful, it’s such a pain to use because of the constant ads for awful games and gambling sites. If you want to just quickly look at the metro map you have to sit through multiple adds before you can get any useful info.

Of course they’re trying to get you to pay for the “premium” version of the app. But considering the information they provide is publicly available from the Paris Metro website that feels ridiculous.

### 1/5 — If you don’t pay

*2024-06-13, version 3.0.8*

if you don’t upgrade, the ads are obnoxious. they are frequent. they occlude the screen many times occluding the whole screen. they are hard to close, sometimes taking multiple attempts. 

The makers of the app are insistent on receiving payment!

### 5/5 — Must Have

*2026-02-08, version 3.2.4*

Downloaded and used this 10 years ago. It was excellent! We used for a week and it never steered us wrong. Had native French speakers peering over my shoulder for advice and then downloading it themselves. Recommended to a friend who is there now - her third or fourth trip - who’d never heard of it, and have already heard from her thanking me for the rec. Don’t leave home without it!

### 5/5 — Great app for metro
