Ratings and Reviews
Good potential, poor execution.
Primarily got it for the map and the audio. Getting to the map is awkward as you have to drill down into a location in order to see the map - puzzling UI.
However the biggest complaint is poor / incorrect implementation of the audio. If the phone is on vibrate, the audio doesn't output. If the phone is locked, the audio stops playing. This cripples a potentially great function.
