Amazing detail

Can’t believe how detailed the content is. Everything thing I needed when I visited London.

One small improvement.

I recently got this app as it regularly go to London for hospital appointments, so I like to do something else if it’s during the school holidays. I think this is an absolutely great idea for anyone who loves visiting London, but there’s one thing that really irritates the hell out of me. As a train fanatic, it really bugs me to see a tube map that’s over 3 YEARS out of date, hence the 4 star rating. Surely it’s time to update it, given that Crossrail and the new Battersea extension on the Northern line will open soon!

Great app though, and keep up the hard work adding new attractions!

Even better now

The last edition was good this even better! Always seems to be updated with new things to do in what’s on can’t find an attraction that’s not included.

School holidays Saviour

Brilliant App perfect for planning the summer holidays for the kids... they might even learn something.

Great app

Perfect app for Londoners and visitors to London. Easy to use and full of all the information you need!

Wonderful guide for travellers to London

I found this app of great use when recently spending time in London.

Data Manager

Very clearly presented - easy to use and full of useful information to help you find your way around London. A must if planning a trip to the Capital!!

Graphic Designer

Great way to navigate around London in a concise and convenient. Two thumbs up.

Very buggy

The ideas are good, shame that the bugs keep getting in the way. The facility to build a plan of attractions you wish to visit is excellent... trouble is that the app freezes frequently and loses the list you have just put together. Also the layout screws up with large chunks of the display being obscured by blank areas.

Worth the short wait

It seems that this app needs 3 or 4 minutes to sort itself out the first time you use it. After that it works just fine! I think this might be due to the complete set of London mapping included in the app, that works even inflight or in the tube when you have no internet connection! Also great content and superb impartial reviews of all London's famous attractions and many more besides. Very useful for finding somewhere great to eat either before of after a visit.

What's going on!

App jerky and unusable

Amazing difference!

Wow!! Just downloaded the new edition and what a difference - so sophisticated now.
Now got loads of restaurants - all reviewed - which is a great help.
And an itinerary option - really like that.

Best app yet for what's on in London

Excellent detail! And really comprehensive. I love all the videos. I live in London and it's the best App I've come across yet for where to go, what's on, etc. And amazingly if's free!

Rubbish

Will not open!!!

It's OK

The content's good but it's a bit un-involving for an iPad app. It is free so I guess not too bad, I would just like to see more going on I guess.
Video is ok but you don't always want to download massive files. More interaction within the app would be good and I hate the big buttons for web etc., it's a bit obvious.
Good info tho & I'm sure will only get better.

Highly Recommended

Got this app on my ipad and I LOVE it...!!
Has everything you would ever want from an app if you were visiting London and it's FREE.

Gorgeous Presentation Style and Design

The "Pocket London Guide" is very useful with a distinctive appealing quality of travel content. There's an excellent balance of text versus videos/graphics. The videos and graphics are very pleasing in content quality and presentation style. The app has an attractive and attention-getting homepage that provides an exemplary content overview. The app's information is detailed with specific guidance for your planning and visit to London. There's so much London's travel information to gain from this app. I would highly recommend this app to a friend or colleague. This is the perfect London travel guide for first-time and repeat visitors.

Beautiful APP

What a pleasant surprise this APP was.
Lovely videos, and such.
I think it is like a quarterly magazine.
In the Spring of 2012 I will visit London, and I assume I will be deleting this current issue, and downloading another. Thank you
