What’s New

Version 2.0

This new release updates the Palm Springs Modernism Tour to the latest versions. This will address some issues that have been reported with downloading and system crashes on certain newer mobile devices. In addition, we have read you reviews and made several changes to the mapping functionality which improves the routes taken while on tour. We also had several requests to separate the residential and commercial properties - so you will now find new tour for just commercial building. And the residential tours void of ay commercial listings. We would love your feedback on the changes and the experience in general. Your input is in valuable.

Simple yet helpful

A simple app but handy in finding exact locations of architecturally significant buildings.

Not worth the money and honestly useless

I bought this app on the premise that I could use it to tour the residences. However, I found on arrival to the main roads, I was not allowed to enter the roads the properties were on since they were private roads.
Other issues:
- Barely any movie star properties listed.
- the app says videos - of four properties I wanted to look at only 1 had a video and that was less than 1:30mins!
- not enough photos. Each property only seems to have 4 photos. I thought for the size of the app and the price paid there would be way more than 4.
- when doing the tours, when you select a house it should allow you to press the directions link which should in turn allow you to choose to get directions... It doesn't
- much shorter list of known residences than I expected e.g. searching could not find Elvis or Bing Crosby...
- when running the tours mode small thumbnails of houses are shown. However you cannot select these to go to the residence detail. The only way to do it is to select start tour...
