This app tells you where to go once you’re there. It adds an entirely new dimension to mapping tools by interacting with the user once they are at their destination. How many times have I gotten lost in a theme park or zoo or other large space and needed directions? Too many. And with safety and security top of mind these days, this tool could come in handy in a time of need too. This app has lots of uses.

This app may be useful when you’re at the zoo, but not when you’re planning your trip. 1) The menu is not useful outside the zoo: If I find the butterfly garden in the list of experiences, the app should show me the location. But outside the zoo, the app can’t show you how to walk there, so it won’t highlight the butterflies on the map. 2) The map is also not useful outside the zoo: it’s too overwhelmed by the many large icons. Let me choose which icons to see! If I’m using public transit, let me hide the parking icons; if I’m not buying food, let me hide the food icons.

Hello @1M0A0T1T1 - Thank you for your comments. No, we are not accessible outside the zoo as it would actually map you from wherever you are back to the zoo - so if you were in Phoenix, AZ you would be mapped from there to the zoo and it would make your experience worse. Also, the mapping and information is all meant to be used within the confines of the zoo itself for a more natural feel. As for the icons - you have a good point. We are trying to take more icons off the map so that it doesn't look so confusing and we think your idea of allowing users to choose the groups of icons is a good one, so look out for this in future releases of the BetterMaps app. Thank you again for your comments and suggestions.

For 99 cents this is a pretty good map. Types which animals we wanted to see (not a follow in order type of person) and gave out the route which we followed. Gives feeding times and food locations.

Excellent to have with kids. Lots of information, and it takes you right to the animals you want to see. Thank you.
We’ve completely redesigned BetterMaps to make every visit easier, faster, and more enjoyable.
