### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2025-03-24*

Anytime I click on an event it closes the app. I've tried closing and reopenning as well as reinstalling but nothing is working.

### 1/5 — No directions possible,

*2023-08-28*

so what's the point?

### 2/5 — The zoom issue continues

*2023-12-31*

Unfortunately, not a resource on which I can see tourists spending their precious time.
This is a simplistic app; no informational depth on which to interact, and the zoom-in/lose your place feature was never addressed.
Guides would be a good neighborhood and/or theme format to develop with imagination, research and the visitor, new-to-Portland, in mind.
As it stands this format is just the common and very superficial point, click, go find nonsense. Invest the $. I’d really like to share it with my customers.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We believed we'd fixed the zoom issue in August; I'd really appreciate it if you could share where you're experiencing this via online@travelportland.com so we can investigate further! Thanks again!

### 5/5 — Great tool for Exploring Portland

*2025-11-03*

Really enjoy this app. Sometimes it’s hard to figure out what to do after work or during the weekend, but this app helps me find cool spots or things happening around.

### 5/5 — Local Intel even for a local

*2025-01-22*

I just found my new favorite local bar that I didn’t know was around the corner from me. I’m gonna use this app like a tourist!

### 5/5 — Fantastic app with a suggestion

*2023-07-17*

It’s still a 5 star app, but I’d recommend a small change in the UI. Don’t zoom in when you click a pin. You have to keep zooming back out to see/tap the other pins. Every single time. It would make much more sense to have the app stay at your current panning and zoom level so you don’t lose your place. Otherwise this app is absolutely fantastic and is still 5/5!!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review and feedback! We agree 100% and we'll be implementing your suggestion in our next release :-)

### 5/5 — more fun than other maps

*2023-05-18*

i love how this app has cut out the clutter and shows me what i am actually interested in checking out. a really great way to find bars and restaurants and all sort of stuff nearby quickly. plus it looks cuter than most maps

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2023-05-18*

Easy to use and lots of great recommendations!  Even as a local, this app has shown me a lot of hidden gems that I didn’t even know about in my neighborhood.   Feels a lot cleaner than Google.

### 5/5 — Highly Recommend!

*2023-05-16*

I’ve been a big fan of this feature when it was only available on their website! I’m so excited it is now in app form! As a Portland local, there is still so much to discover. This is the perfect guide to help me find all of the cities cool and unique offerings!! Even public art!!

### 5/5 — Very cool

*2023-05-16*

Nice app; great info for visitors and locals alike!
