Terrible
I was very excited to find this app as I was heading to Barcelona the next day as was planning on relying on it to get around. The map is terrible! It doesn't have all the street names and you can't view everything at once having to zoom in and out for certain labels. The information on the sites is also subpar. It does have a bunch of restaurants and such but that was not what I needed. Definitely not worth $5.99! If you have never traveled at all in your life then maybe some of the information and tips are beneficial but it's mainly just obvious common knowledge. Waste of my money.
Very weak - no search
Also no iPad version
disappointing
i generally love lonely planet guides. this one is inferior to expectations. sorry, but not worth the $ in my opinion. :( what gives?
