Customer Reviews
Most used on my trip to Paris
Unlike the other navigation apps I downloaded, this one retained my most recent search even after closing the app. Neither Metro nor 09 Zuti did that making them much less useful since I didn't have a data plan in Paris and wifi usually required getting a password from each restaurant so you couldn't just run a new search while on the street. I found it a bit awkward to use at first, but it got easier with practice. it was my best choice for figuring out which buses would get me where I wanted to go. It even listed arrival times of next bus.
Bugs
It bugs when you r searching for a trip plan on the map
It says it doesn t recognize the metro station. Scandalous when the station comes from the application map!!!
Very useful when online - limited utility offline
The premium version offers similar services as those available on the RATP online website (which is very good). The routing engine is fast and trustable but is only available when the I-whatever is online. The fact that the automatic route planning feature doesn't work offline severely limits the apps utility if not connected to the internet - this is the sole reason for downgrading its rating (compare to the Metro Paris application which works provides full routing offline). This is probably a more egregious limitation for Itouch users than those using Iphones. Obviously timetables, location, and traffic info are also not available unless online, but this is to be expected. Offline, the Premium version is limited to providing the same feature set as (free) RATP Lite - a good set of train, tram, and bus maps. Otherwise, the user interface and routing functionality is slightly better developed than Paris Metro currently is (eg it not only tells you the train to take, but the direction to head in - kind of useful).
