Kept crashing

Tried to use to help with my kid’s homework and app kept crashing after 5 seconds. Only $3 but still disappointed it wouldn’t work. Also, couldn’t locate markers by zip code which would have been convenient.

Warning-scam-app does not work

I purchased the app a Month ago and it has never once worked using the map view. I emailed the developer and never received a reply. Save your money.

Almost perfect

Just one thing I would like to see added: the ability to call up a historical marker by marker ID number. Many have these IDs on the road sign, & you may not know exactly which county you’re in at the time.

Map function crashes

When trying to view on map, app crashes. You can see map if start with directions. Would be useful to be able to see markers in area on a map.

Great app for TX travelers

Love this app when I travel around the state of Texas. Must have for any road tripper and history lover!
