So, since there is no map, can't function. DON'T BUY IT!!! I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!! ### 1/5 — Shanghai Map *2016-02-20* This Shanghai street map is useless! It is in Chinese and even if you click "English" it would still be in Chinese. The attractions are in English and would help in learning a little bit about it--but if you need a street map, forget about this app! ### 1/5 — Все за деньги *2015-12-26* Требует денег за любое действие. Фуфло ### 1/5 — Разочарование *2015-12-17* После покупки расширения карты так и не загрузились. 169 Р не много, но было бы за что. Без карт - приложение бестолковое. Не стоит тратить ни денег, ни времени, ни заряда батареи телефона, столь бесценного в пути. ### 1/5 — Программа ни о чем *2012-08-27* Программа не стоит своих денег, в ней только информация в виде текста какие места можно посетить, без возможности перехода на карту, сама карта тоже ни о чем, в общем не стоит она этих денег. ### 1/5 — Bad guide *2012-07-13* It is a very bad guide. If I could I would like to have my money back. It has a bad design, it is not clear and many times instead of saying Shanghai it says Dublin. I did my trip and it was not useful at all! ### 1/5 — miserabel! *2011-12-06, version 2.1.1* Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt bei diesem App überhaupt nicht. Die Informationen im App sind veraltet und mangelhaft. Die Karten sind unbrauchbar da nur auf Chinesisch und ebenso nicht aktuell. Kurz gefasst, lohnt sich überhaupt nicht, ich rate jedem vom Kauf ab. ### 1/5 — mappa non aggiornata e non funzionante col gps *2011-04-30, version 2.0.1* L'avevo acquistato perche avevo la macchina a Shangai,l'ho provato sul campo e non visualizzavo la mia posizione sulla strada. Lo sconsiglio in quanto non preciso e di nessuna utilita',soldi fregati... ### 1/5 — finger weg *2011-04-19, version 2.0.1* unglaublich schlechte übersetzungen, wohl vom onlineprogramm 1 zu 1 übersetzt, wenig infos, alles von wikitravel abgeschrieben, keinen müden heller wert! sehr entäuscht empfehle ich statt dessen lonely planet! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No es gratuita y no lo advierten *2019-02-20, version 3.0.26* No puedes hacer nada, para cualquier opción tienes que pagar, de gratuita nada... ### 1/5 — Quite a waste! *2019-01-06* The free version of the app is only the basic info about few famous places which is anyways available on internet (if one does ones research and go). It does not show how to reach those places, any ticket purchases (if reqd.), subway info, train timings, subway maps, street infos. etc. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback.

I got this message the whole time when I tried to use any of the features…. Downloading: 0% Maybe it will work next time I come to Shanghai, whatever that is. **Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for reaching out, we are very sorry for the inconvenience.

This app doesn’t give any info you can’t already get elsewhere. Maps don’t work when they need to! **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback.

It is only 1 payment to unlock the content. The reason behind this is for travelers to be able to enjoy everything in an offline mode without paying for roaming charges while they travel. Even being able to use geolocalization capabilities such as GPS or Augmented Reality without being connected to your cell phone provider. We hope you understand and if you have any other question, please do not hesitate to get back to us. Thank you. ### 1/5 — Very slow and outdated!! *2018-03-23* Maps are of low resolution.

Can't search a station and doesn't tell you anything other than the stations that are in between where you want to go. Nothing about train line or station info. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback.

Fehlkauf. Beim Orten der eigenen Position bleibt die App hängen. Katastrophe ### 1/5 — Enttäuscht *2016-10-22, version 3.0.22* APP ist eine Katastrophe, erst später erkennt man das die Karte ausschließlich chinesisch dargestellt ist ohne Straßennamen in Englischer Sprache. Jedenfalls habe ich keine gefunden. Die Erklärungen zu einigen Sehenswürdigkeiten sind spärlich. Erst später wird erwähnt das es nur zwei Sprachen gibt die alles abdecken, fast. Die Metro-maps sind nicht zu gebrauchen, da die Strecken nicht auf der Karte angezeigt werden. Auch nicht gefunden. Ein Test for kauf bzw. Freischaltung ist zwar möglich reicht im Allgemeinen nicht aus genaueres zu Beurteilen. Natürlich kommt es darauf an zu welchem Zweck man die APP braucht. Zum füllen des Pads oder phons reicht es immer.

I problemi alla traduzione italiana sono solo vagamente risolti - in realtà continua ad essere un guazzabuglio. Inoltre, dopo averla confrontata con altri prodotti, è povera di contenuti, gli itinerari non sono granchè. Il gps ha grossi problemi. A questo punto inzio a credere sia stata uno spreco. The update doesn't solve the problem - maybe there's no more spanish, but the english-italian translation is awful. And then, i've noticed, the gps system have some problem too. I'm not sure I'll recommend this app to a friend... ### 2/5 — Thin on resources *2012-04-13, version 2.2.1* Haven't travelled with it yet, but just poking around was unimpressed with the shallow list of restaurants, clubs, shops, etc. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
