Ok but...
This is a good app and very educational. It is fun to use at first but after you have discovered everything there is not much else to do. The graphics are ok but could do with improvement. It would be better if it was free and more 3D then it would not be a waste of money.
Questa è una buona app e molto educativa. All'inizio è divertente, ma dopo aver scoperto tutto non c'è molto altro da fare. La grafica è ok ma potrebbe essere migliorata. Sarebbe meglio se fosse gratuito e più 3D quindi non sarebbe uno spreco

Eh
GPS Function worked great for me and kept me pointed in right direction, of course so did free google maps. Disappointed that clicking a place on map didn’t bring up info, graphics are very early 90s, info on very few places. What was there I found informative. $.99 would have been a better price for what you get but was nice to have GPS since street signs don’t match what’s on map.

Pompei
Not worth the money. Not user friendly and not a good source to use to find your way around the site.
Not worth it
If all you need is a GPS of Pompei, then it would be good. But as an guide- not so much. It lists sites, but the sites and the info about them do not link to the gps location, so I was constantly having to flip back to see if there was more info. If you need a low cost app, use Rick Steves, or get the audio guides. Don’t waste your money

Not very useful
I attempted to use this app with full cellphone coverage, but was not able to get it to display accurate information on locations inside the walls. Plus items were locked off that the map said you should be able to see. I know that is What the map is for, but it needs to be updated if items have been locked off for months.

Not working
$2.99 and it’s not even working. Rip off
Not worth it even if it was free
Terrible, total waste of valuable minutes of my life
Great then and now
I did not use the app for GPS / positioning so I can not speak to that functionality. But the app is very helpful in providing a comparison between the current day ruin and the appearance in antiquity. While the number of sites included is somewhat limited (~15), it includes key public and private sites which provides a good overview of what Pompeii would have looked like. I found it worth $3

Thanks for your review. Pompeii Touch Team.
Terrible guide for Pompeii !
It’s a shame this app is SO bad. The gps mapping function does not work, which was my primary purpose for buying. There are no links from the map to any content, including the several buildings that are highlighted on the home page.
I saw this advertised at the entry to the ruins. It’s a shame such an amazing historical site as Pompeii has such a poor mapping app.
I want my money back!

Do not pay
It is terribly useless
Rubbish
Waste of money , hardly any info on there , too difficult to see in bright light and features difficult to use... don't waste your money (Italian robbery twice in one day) :-(
Uses too much battery
Chews up battery. No link between map and information about what you are looking at. Too hard to use. A pity, because this could be really useful as the site is large and there is a lot to see.
A major glitch
The GPS dot is not reliable- kept disappearing, I would have to exit App go to Compass reposition and then go back to App. After 2 seconds it would disappear again.
Not worth the money
App doesn't provide much information and is missing a large number of marked areas. You are better off with the free map and explanation booklet that at least won't run out of battery!!
Awesome app
I thought this is an expensive app initially. It's been worth every penny. Great for the history afficionado. They are also constantly improving it. Happy to recommend it!

Thanks!
Terrible app not worth a penny
App could not use the gps to indicate my location on the map, so the main feature is not working. Pictures of before and after are also not good. Overall, one of the worst guide apps I ever tried.
Rubbish
GPS does not work - so utterly useless. As advertised at ticket office I thought it would be good but definitely not. Does not guide you just hinders you.
Absolutely Awful
One of the worst apps I've seen in a very long time. Graphics are terrible (looks like something from 1994), the GPS function doesn't work, the general layout looks like it's designed by a child and it's just rubbish.
If you are going to spend some money to find your way around, buy the little book from the entrance in Pompeii. Alternatively, google maps is also very useful there! Much more so than this useless app. I want a refund.
