Good story

Loved that we could go at our own pace, stop, took pictures leisurely and did not have to worry about crowd, fixed time departure and fixed time duration at each point. Charge your phone prior to leaving. Nice voice. Not too many dates. Good overall.

Developer Response ,

Thank you so much for the review — and the great advice! An external charger is also a great backup option. Hope you get to try more of our tours in the future!

Not worth it

The 1-2 min brief explanation at each stop was not very informative. I wanted to here more of the history or why it was designed the way it was. Plus even while listening at each stop there was a high pitch beeping nose which I imagine was to alert you were near something. But it would keep beeping at you even while listening to that stop info. So annoying I stopped listening to the app and instead would find short you tube explanations and listen to those. Great idea to have app like this but poor execution and waste of money. Save your $6.99 and find something else.

Developer Response ,

Thank you very much for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that your experience wasn’t a pleasant one. The high pitched beeping definitely sounds like an unusual glitch, so I’d like to get our technical team to investigate the matter. And we have fixed the issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Highly recommend

This is an easy-to-use app. Just make sure you bring a backup charger. I have done this entire tour twice while showing off our nation's capital.

Developer Response ,

Thank you so much for sharing your positive experience with our tour app. We're thrilled to hear that you found it user-friendly and convenient, and that it enhanced your visits to our nation's capital.

Your advice on bringing a backup charger is an excellent point! Battery usage can indeed be high during such immersive tours, and we appreciate you mentioning it. This type of insight is incredibly helpful for other users.

We're very grateful that you've chosen our app to show off the rich history and iconic landmarks of our nation's capital, not once but twice!
