ESSENTIAL Gettysburg App

This app has been on my phone for years! It helped me obtain my Guiding License and now helps me to enhance my Battlefield Tours. A wealth of knowledge, well organized and easy to use. Ask any guide, most of us keep this on our phone!

Great app for the Gettysburg enthusiast

Interesting and absorbing.....be aware that the app is graphic intensive, so recommend to run on wifi and be patient. Use landscape mode for ipad.

Great product

I stumbled on this looking for a battlefield tour app. I would definitely recommend enabling GPS and then using monuments in "distance" mode. As you approach a monument, it appears on the screen. You have more info than just the plaques. Partway through our tour, we had a downpour and could continue our drive, seeing the monuments while staying in the car. Also, some of the plaques are weathered, and it's easier to read them on the app. If you go, get this app! Now, if someone would just make an audio battlefield tour app?
