### 5/5 — Es el sueño de mi vida🙏🏻❤️

*2023-03-08*

Dios mediante en 2024 allí estaremos.Amén

### 1/5 — Disgraceful

*2018-04-04, version 1.15*

Unless you pay for full version you can do nothing in this app. Even the map needs the premium version. It is offensive that App Store allows this to be marketed as a free app with in-app purchasing! I don’t necessarily expect this app to be free, but to advertise it as free is a joke considering you can’t even view a map of Vatican City...

### 1/5 — Free means worthless

*2017-12-17*

The only thing free is the download otherwise it has no value for a “free” app.

### 1/5 — Very disappointed, waste of money

*2017-07-30*

I was very disappointed in downloading the St Peters Bassicila guide. It had no additional information that you can find on Wikipedia. I was looking for details on statues and paintings and it was a short overview on how to visit the site. I do not recommend paying for or downloading this app.

### 5/5 — 1

*2017-02-24*

Вы хитрые ребята!!! Зачем вам нужна слежка за людьми? У вас денег много!!! Приложение? А почему бы и нет! Удачи в слежке!!!;)

### 1/5 — It cost £2.29

*2016-08-20, version 1.8*

I think it's important to note that to get anything apart from a brief history (which you could just get from Google) every other feature will cost £2.29. So that's any additional history on St Peters, the vatican itself and any maps, will cost 2.29 each. In which case I don't think it's quite right to put it down as a free app. But anyway I'll be deleting it. There are other apps with content that don't, all together, cost more than a guide book.

### 1/5 — Отвратительное Приложение!

*2016-07-30*

Каждый шаг вам обойдётся в 229 рублей. Пыталась скачать карты, заплатила. Карта не скачалась. Открыты пара страниц с небольшими абзацами и тройкой фотографий. Минимум полезной информации! Максимум заплаченных денег 😬

### 5/5 — Absolute Rome travel guide

*2016-05-20*

This is an absolute Rome travel guide that will help a traveler have s smooth exploration in this beautiful place. Through this app, there is no need to carry any guide books or any maps. Just carry your gadget, use the GPS capability and explore anywhere in Rome and enjoy!

### 1/5 — Poor guide

*2016-01-12, version 1.8*

Very poor guide, not intuitive and additional maps for purchase cannot be zoomed in enough only shows major roads. Very poor product. Very disappointing. There are many better apps that are free.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2015-10-21, version 1.7*

Hidden fees, not worth it at all. Developers can ear my B-hole.
