## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Don’t get

*2021-11-16*

Tried it out. You cant search anywhere you need to go. It seems that its only rated based on what the companies reported. It only works one way and it not a good way. Doesn’t work with what you need. Can’t even categorize your searches or it deletes the couple things that are rated. You cant see more about the place other than what the computer defined the place biased on accessible, partially accessible, or not at all/ no data.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work!

*2015-11-18, version 2.3*

No locations are showing up on the map!

### 1/5 — Can't log in

*2013-01-23*

Opened account online. Confirmed via email. Updated settings online. Cannot login to app. Tried many times. No places come up. Do they once logged in- which is not possible.

### 1/5 — Good idea

*2013-01-19*

But I can't seem to figure out how to register and log in. Registered with OpenStreet thing and then tried to use that login with Wheelmap. Didn't work. Got so twisted between the two that I gave up.

### 1/5 — Wrong

*2012-03-08*

I put in the local hospital. This app said it was 436 miles away form me. It's in fact less than 10 miles away. 436 miles I can be in Indiana!

### 2/5 — No Australian data

*2017-01-24, version 3.0.3*

I don't understand why this is in the Australian iTunes Store, all the data is for Europe!

### 2/5 — Nice idea but broken

*2015-12-03, version 3.0*

Doesn't seem to be able to load points of interest properly - often loads the ones just off the edge of the screen, which isn't too useful!

### 2/5 — Not sure this will take off

*2013-03-31, version 2.0*

As others have said, it's a good idea but I doubt that it will take off unless it already contained quite a lot of useful information. In that case, people would probably help to 'fine-tune' the information.
But there is very little info (I tried both the Uk and France), and I'm therefore not sure this app will work as the developers hope ...

### 2/5 — Good idea but no cigar...

*2013-03-25, version 2.0*

Really lacking when it comes to parking. Finding ncp's is no big deal. What is needed is an app that maps out blue badge bays. That would be amazing.

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2012-03-27, version 1.1*

This has some useful places listed and has a good rating system for accessibility however it doesn't seem to  update its information when you add additional info/ new locations which makes it somewhat useless and pretty disappointing.

### 5/5 — Users will make this great

*2019-07-06, version 4.1.70*

Really great idea and well implemented. It depends on users to update so the more people using it the more accurate it will be. Get out there and start adding places. In Germany it’s working brilliantly

### 5/5 — Great idea

*2013-03-27, version 2.0*

Not much info at the moment, great idea, if people add to the database ( via the get engaged bit on the app ) instead of just saying there's not a lot of info there will be more information for others to use - spare 5 mins of your time to help others in the future.

### 4/5 — good idea

*2013-03-23, version 2.0*

good

### 3/5 — No built in wayfinding

*2020-12-13, version 5.0.0*

Would really benefit from built in wayfinding. Otherwise it not bad but lacking in Australia

### 3/5 — A work in progress

*2019-12-09, version 5.0.0*

This is an app in progress, and as such I would rate it at two stars. However, I’m adding an extra star to reflect the positive contact I had with the developer. I expect that over time as the app is further developed my rating will rise. It’s a good idea and one I’d like to participate in.

### 3/5 — This is awesome except

*2018-05-17*

That it is not really accessible on iOS.  The Ios voiceover feature isn’t up to par when trying to navigate.

**Developer response:** Please try the updated version, we put a lot of effort into making the app itself accessible. If you have any issues, you can also contact us at bugs@wheelmap.org

### 3/5 — Good app but update isn't it working

*2016-06-03, version 3.0.1*

I get en error data could not be updated upon trying to update to the latest version

### 3/5 — Needs more data and a full English translation

*2013-04-01, version 2.0*

Good idea but there is limited data at present. Could be useful if more people input their local information. An app like this is badly needed. 
Note that the terms of use are currently written in German.

### 3/5 — Okay ..

*2011-04-13*

Howdy. I live in South Bend, IN, a medium little city with hundreds of businesses. What concerns me is that there are only 3 businesses that show up in my area with this app. Do we the people have to enter them in, or should more be showing up already? Help! Awesome idea for an app, just want more locations!
