### 3/5 — Verbesserungswürdig

*2025-11-27, version 69.0*

Die Sprache ist doch englisch, deutsch nur rudimentär vorhanden.
Die Welterbestätten die zu einer Gruppe gehören sollten zusammengehörig dargestellt werden.

### 5/5 — Review access to new transfers of transfer sensitive andwhatchoutforbastardizedlangulgatiouscioskios

*2025-11-16, version 69.0*

Care xste

### 5/5 — Fantastic - thanks! 👍

*2025-06-04, version 60.1*

Very useful, intuitive and engaging, nice UI

### 5/5 — A great resource

*2025-05-30, version 60.1*

This is a great app if you’re interest in UNESCO sites. We visit as many as we can when we travel

### 2/5 — Unhandlich, schreckliche Benutzeroberfläche, veraltet

*2025-03-04, version 60.1*

Die App ist genau das wonach ich gesucht habe. Alle Weltstätten sind aufgeführt, man kann eine Wunschliste erstellen mit solchen, die man besuchen möchte und eine mit solchen, die man bereits besucht hat. Jedoch sieht sie die App aus als wäre sie für das iPhone 4 entwickelt wurden und das macht sie leider super unattraktiv. Ich würde den App-Entwicklern dringend empfehlen, sich hier im AppStore mal die App "been" anzuschauen. Selbes Konzept, nur mit Ländern anstatt konkreten Orten.

### 5/5 — I want a tentative list

*2025-01-04*

Please

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-12-02, version 59.0*

Thank you for making this!

### 5/5 — Missing Intangible Heritage items

*2024-10-29, version 58.0*

I have been using this app for years to help fill out and track my visits. Recently I’ve been visiting sites dedicated to Intangible Heritage sites - like Mino washi paper in Minoshi Japan. 

The lack of intangible WH items to help users identify and visit related sites is an omission I suggest correcting.

### 5/5 — Tolle App

*2024-10-17, version 58.0*

Nach einer selbstgebastelten Excel-Datei habe ich nun endlich diese App entdeckt. Zum einen bietet sie über Listen und Karten eine tolle Übersicht der UNESCO-Erbestätten. Und zum anderen macht es Spaß, den Fortschritt beim Reisen zu sehen und die Besuche der außergewöhnlichen Orte zu „sammeln“.

### 4/5 — 一覧表示で国毎に折り畳んで表示して欲しい

*2024-03-30*

件数が多いので、一覧表示で国毎に折り畳んで表示し、国を選択するとその国の世界遺産を表示するようにして欲しいです。
