Latest reviews of Houston Travel Guide Offline app for iPhone and iPad
Calling this a Texas State travel guide is incorrect. There is only information about Houston contained in the app. Its not ready for prime time.
I wanted a guide on how to get to places in Houston. What I got is more of a historical stuff. Well. I should have just used the power of Safari to get that. I cant even zoom in or rotate my view, so I can read clearly whatever they wrote in this app. I feel guilty. I should have just given my $5 to one hungry guy walking in the streets of Houston. I think the concept in this app is not jibing with what I wanted. What they try to give out had below- average execution. Others would have just given better applications for free. Why did I buy it? I just got caught by the title of the app. There was an app for Los Angeles, and I thought this should be similar, except this was for Houston. I believe I got trapped.
I liked it. Really helpful at Houston, I liked the offline maps, the places to go suggestions and the augmented reality gadget. The best!
DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY ON THIS USELESS PIECE OF PRINT. A ONE DOLLAR ROAD MAP HAS MORE INFORMATION AND PLACES OF INTEREST THAN THIS HOAX OF A BOOK!
