Use the app from the museum itself
The first thing this does is ask for your a facebook/google login for no justifiable reason. I deleted it straight away and downloaded the app made by the museum, which has no such nonsense.
Don’t understand what this is for
Tiny maps that are difficult to read, an AR section (augmented reality) that is just a way to look at the pictures through your phone isn’t of just with your eyes, why???? I thought this might provide an insight into what you were looking at but no, it does nothing. Various section you can read in tiny tiny grey print which is especially illegible in the dim light of the museum and much too long to read whilst touring the museum.

Not the real museum app. And not free.
If you are here, you are probably looking for the Rijksmuseum’s app. That has the name simply “Rijksmuseum”, with logo showing “Rijks” in white letters on a black background. It provides guidance, maps, online pictures, etc.
THIS app is completely different. It offers nothing but advertisements to pay $2.99 to get their version of Rijksmuseum information along with “special deals“. If that’s what you want, fine - I don’t know how good it is. If instead, like me, you are looking for the real guide to the Rijksmuseum, prepared by the Rijksmuseum, then look for the app with the simple white-on-black “Rijks” logo.

Very limited content available for free. You don’t need pay $3.99 to upgrade for information. Don’t waste your time to download this.
Copy and paste from Wiki. As far as I can see.
The text is grey - why? Very difficult to read. Easier to look everything up on Wikipedia.
