### 5/5 — Show U where the animals are

*2026-04-17*

This app shows you exactly where the animals are for each zoo.  Not only can you see it on the map.  But it highlights it!  All you have to is use your GPS location and walk to the searched animal.  Pretty darn easy!

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-10-28*

It does not show you where the animals are.

### 1/5 — At least for the St. Louis Zoo.

### 5/5 — No paper map!

*2024-08-03*

I appreciate the ability to use my iPhone and not carry around a paper map and help save the planet. Map worked great.

### 5/5 — All in one and easy to navigate

*2024-07-26*

I’ve used this one app at two different zoos.  Refreshing to know that it’s all in one app and easy to use.  Using the category filters to find food was perfect when my little ones got hungry for a snack. I noticed Paris Zoo was included and we’re headed there in the fall. Can’t wait to test it out there too!

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2024-07-19*

Great app!  Saved me so much time walking around.
