User reviews

This app is so helpful

I love this app. I didn’t realize how much history was around me! I downloaded this app a few months ago and I’ve already learned so much about my city and other locations around me. I love history and learning and if you do as well you should definitely give this app a try!

Response from developer

I’m so happy to hear that! Glad you are enjoying it, and we’re adding more features all the time! Thank you again for leaving this review and being a user of the app! Andres Founder, RoadHistorical

Can't plan

Will not allow true planning. No one way one stops allowed; and the in-app review is broken. I had to subscribe before I could even try it out! Bandits.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. I’m sorry the route planner didn’t support the trip you were trying to create. It currently requires at least 3 stops, and support for simple 1- and 2-stop trips is coming in the next update. I do want to clarify the subscription concern: RoadHistorical’s core app and historical marker map are free, and you were able to use the app before starting Plus. The annual Plus plan also begins with a 7-day free trial, so you have not been charged and can cancel before the trial ends at no cost. If you email me at support@roadhistorical.app, I’d be happy to personally help with the route you were trying to build. — Andres, Founder

Optimistic but disappointed

I love Texas history and was excited to find this app. Thought I could take a few motorcycle trips to see the markers and learn more about local history. Was disappointed to see multiple mistakes on the app related to markers around Lubbock area. There were pictures that definitely were not the location of markers, and one of the markers said it was about 5 miles away, but It’s actually is about 5 1/2 hours away.

Response from developer

Hi Charity! Thank you again, I want to follow up because I don't think my first reply fully addressed what you found. A marker showing 5 miles away when it's actually hours away isn't the linear-distance behavior I described; that sounds like a genuine location error in that marker's data, and I want to fix it. I'm auditing the Lubbock-area markers this week. On the images: you're right that some are showing the wrong place, and I'm correcting those as we build out the photo library. Thank you for catching real issues.. It genuinely helps.

Amazing app!

It’s an amazing app. You should expand to other states now.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your review! I’m so happy you are enjoying it. For now I’m focusing on Texas, but who know what the future holds :)

New appreciation

I’ve lived in Fort Worth my whole life and somehow this app has already taught me so much about the city. It’s crazy how many historical spots I’ve driven past without ever knowing the story behind them. Super cool idea and really easy to use. Definitely worth downloading.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your review. Im very glad you are enjoying it!
