    I use many travel guide apps. This one was difficult to use. It only works in one direction. Which is confusing. I didn’t find the facts very entertaining or informative. I hope my input helps to make this app better.

    I wanted to give this app 5 stars but I couldn’t. We were in SF for one day and decided to use this to see the city. The app offers a few tours and we picked San Francisco. Everything seemed great but then I noticed that a bunch of stops were missing from what I was expecting. Well they are buried in the app and you have to find them. Once I found the correct tour with all the stops and tried to start it, it keep closing on me at the end of each stop😪. I had to re-open the app and find my stop. It was a bit of a pain to use. I mean for $3... it is worth it. But it definitely is not a five star product. It’s just really glitchy and not smooth.

    Enjoyable for the whole family, especially when trying to get a tour in the new Covid-safe world.
  • Simple with a navigator

    We were in SF very briefly and wanted something simple we could do on our own to see the city. This tour let us do that! Although we only got out for photos (due to covid), we got to see all of SF’s most popular sites. We did notice that the GPS accuracy would occasionally go haywire - this was either my phone freaking out or the effect of the skyscrapers. Having a second person to catch that effect and manually handle it was helpful.
  • Kudos!

    I had limited time in the city and I used this App and my rental car to drive around and see all the highlights. It worked as they said it would and I came home not feeling I missed seeing the city!
