Reviews:
Very convenient  By: Sao - 4-Jun-2009 Version: 1.6.2 One of the most useful apps by far
Overview not indepth  By: Ohhhdear - Jun 3, 2009 Version: 1.6.1 Does just as advertised; gives an overview of London and how to cope while there. If you want indepth, buy and haul around the most excellent DK Guidebook.
Awry  By: Yelworc - 30-Jul-2009 Version: 1.7 I did not mind this until the recent (28th july) update and all the maps disappeared. Why? And whilst I can keep the original release on my Pod, I keep being prodded to pull in the update. Annoying. Please sort the maps, people.Thanks...
Not recommended  By: Tony Davenport - 12-Jun-2009 Version: 1.6.2 This is a fairly lazy attempt at an offline travel app, and sadly I have no reason to think that the other city guides produced by this company have anything else to recommend them. It contains a large amount of information, gleaned from resources such as Wikipedia, but where it really falls down is in its lack of implementation of GPS. It relies upon you to know where you are in a city. Its restaurant recommendations are fairly minimal, and its implementation of OpenMaps is fairly awful. It provides maps of each district (and hinges on your knowledge of which district you are in) which are just static tiles from OpenMaps. I realise that the reason would probably be given that this is for OFFLINE use, however this does not forgive its lack of usability. If you rely solely on this app then be prepared to ask local residents for directions and advice. Regularly.
Needs improvement  By: Tr4veler - 27-Jun-2009 Version: 1.6.2 City and underground maps are very basic, low resolution. Can't read street or station names. Please upgrade maps.
Bad maps  By: Krouze - Jun 2, 2009 Version: 1.6.1 Terrible map quality, content is basic
Needs work  By: Babera - 15-Jun-2009 Version: 1.6.2 The maps are not useful at all
