We normally try to put the best places of interest within the least amount of time based on experiences and suggestions from current travelers. We appreciate your feedback and will adjust accordingly. Thank you very much. ### 1/5 — Useless without maps *2016-10-08* No point in having it without paying for the maps. Didn't want to do that without a free trial. I suspect there's no bus map which is the thing I need most since trains cover so little of the city. Deleted it after discovering this. ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2016-09-30* I bought this because of the maps and an icon showing a bus. Unfortunately, the only thing thing to do with bus and map is "they're available free and people will help you". I wanted a map with route numbers that I could use on my IPhone. What a waste. Even the street map doesn't overlay the metro - two separate maps. ### 1/5 — Абсолютно бесполезное Приложение *2016-09-13* Зря потраченные деньги! Приложение абсолютно бесполезное, информация на столько общая, что просто вбив в гугле, можно все найти. Да ещё и карта метро старая! Вообще не понятно, за что берутся деньги. ### 1/5 — Not Free *2016-09-09* I don't like apps that tell you the download is free and then charge you $3.99 for the maps, as this one does. This app can't be used unless you use the maps. ### 1/5 — Downloaded but would not open. *2016-07-11* .. ### 3/5 — In-depth info here *2016-06-29* It looks like there's some pretty good info in this app, though I would say that the interface needs some excessibility improvement . It is difficult to navigate the controls with voiceover. ### 1/5 — Junk. I'm in Rome and it is useless. *2016-05-22* I bought this before my Italy trip. I bought maps for Florence and Rome. It always hangs on startup. I have uninstalled and reinstalled at least 4 times. I think it worked once. When I start it back up again it hangs. I wish I could get my money back. They must not have tested this in country. STAY AWAY. There are better travel apps out there. ### 1/5 — Не покупайте эту гадость *2015-09-04* Создатели этого дерьма, оформленного красивыми фотографиями, изощренные негодяи. Сначала они продают недорого вход в программу, а потом если хочешь что то посмотреть в приложении должен оплачивать массу встроенных опций. Честные разработчики, дают ознакомиться с приложением. Но главное то, что это не гид а альбом фотографий. Половина контента не русифицировано. ### 1/5 — Приложение не работает *2015-06-15* Приложение не открывается вообще, обновите уже быстрее, а то скоро в Рим ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not what I expected *2023-08-17* The app only has three self guided tours. The rest is just suggestions for tours you can buy. ### 1/5 — Useless App *2021-09-28, version 3.0.61* The app looks good to download but once you open it there is nothing inside to use, just endless boring reading text. ### 1/5 — Cost is NOT clear. *2019-03-12, version 3.0.49* You download the app and find as you explore it is downloading and charging you extra. Whatever the developer is stating it is far from clear what the actual costs are. It is further aggravated by the fact that the app is not particularly good. Avoid. Am trying to contact Apple about a refund. ### 1/5 — A four - arnaque totale *2018-08-12* J’ai dépensé cinq euros pour rien. Cette app est bourrée de bugs . On doit être connecté en permanence . De plus elle oublie vos achats donc vous devez re télécharger en permanence des mega de data : une fortune en roaming . Pire : elle n admet pas de mode « saving « : bref tout s arrête quand votre Mobile se met en veille . Le réalité augmentée est une arnaque : rien dedans , et les commentaires sont nuls . N achetez surtout pas ! Claude , **Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for reaching out, we are very sorry for the inconvenience. We are offering a refund. Please follow the next instructions: *Launch App Store. *Click on App Store. *Login to your iTunes account, if you're already logged in click on your email in the upper right corner of App Store. *Click on “Purchase History” *Select the app that you want a refund for. *Click on “Report a Problem” Thank you ### 1/5 — Do not waste your money *2018-02-04* Pretty useless as a guide, maps inaccurate and even missing some of the landmarks. Maps not scalable and missing small streets. I was disappointed that I relied on this app to say the least. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry to hear that. We are working on your suggestions and will update the app as soon as the work is done. Our main concern is the small streets issue that has affected you and we are sorry for the trouble. Thank you. ### 1/5 — Платная *2017-08-14* Метро только в платной версии ### 1/5 — Rome guide *2017-06-15, version 3.0.44* I have to ask for a refund on this app!! I have just purchased for £3.99 and it is just showing me pictures I now find I have to keep £2.99 £1.99 for different things to open tour guides etc!! Not what I wanted to do!!! Will wait to hear from you!! ### 1/5 — Du vol *2017-04-05* L'application est très chère, et il faut remettre la main au portefeuille tout le temps!!! Du vol! ### 1/5 — Save your money *2017-01-08, version 3.0.33* The maps are useless, you can't zoom in for any detail. A waste of money ### 1/5 — Total scam *2016-11-19* The maps don't let you zoom in far enough to see all street names, they are just saved photos. Screenshot maps and save $4 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Vittoria Colonna in Marino *2024-09-17* Great place to stay, if you want the feel of Italy. We stayed 4 nights, and were treated like Royalty by the Owner. They made us feel very comfortable, and went out of their way to accommodate us. Not your basic Bed and Breakfast. ### 5/5 — How *2020-10-14, version 3.0.60* Amazing I could see my cat in England ### 5/5 — Хорошее приложение! *2020-02-22* Хорошее ### 5/5 — Lots of info in one place *2019-03-22* Haven’t travelled yet, but this seems perfect to get around and see things by yourself. The Rome version is free, so download and have a look. Then it’s a few dollars each for any other Italian cities. Cheap in the context of your holiday. **Developer response:** Thank you very much for your feedback ❤️ ### 5/5 — My trip in Rome *2019-03-02* Im planning to go to Rome in a week from today. Ive downloaded this app and started to plan the trip for the last two weeks. This guide is really useful and cant wait to use while there. Ive jist booked my shuttle to the hotel and a private dinner for me and my husband, Im looking forward to discovering this amazing city that Ive always dreamt to go. Also, the app is free, so just give it a try! It is worth it. **Developer response:** Thank you very much. We are very happy that you enjoyed the app. ### 5/5 — Currently using it! *2016-11-28* Im currently traveling around rome and the south of italy. This rome travel guide is very handy and easy to use. Off maps are a big plus while traveling within italy ### 5/5 — Great App! *2016-10-25* Rome guide is the perfect app for anyone visiting Rome. I love the graphics and the interface. The maps are outstanding because they are offline maps. Overall it's a great app for any traveler to Rome and needing a guide. ### 5/5 — App for Rome travel *2016-06-29* When you are traveling to Rome, you should have a good rome travel guide and offline city map. And this app can be your company in your Rome travel. Do try to use this app and see if this will serve you best. ### 4/5 — awesome *2016-10-25* i especially love the Rome Travel tour section about travel passes and ways to save money. we are backpackers and not rolling in money so this really helped us see the beautiful city and stay within our budget.so simply its is really awesome ### 4/5 — best offline app *2016-06-29* This Rome travel guide and offline city map is highly recommended with must go places. also includes the weather, currency, converter to Italian etc. A complete software package all for free and nearby subways etc. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
