Ratings and Reviews
Great content but maps need to be improved
Always find delightful gems through this app. Only downside? The map misses basic landmarks that are critical to orientale yourself in a new city (e.g major rail stations), so you end up using multiple map / transport apps in combination. Would be perfect if that could be fixed. Oh, and more photos please.
Developer Response ,
Dear Rtbrighton, so nice to hear you like our locals' tips! We use maps from the open source project "Open Street Maps" - which is a great project we love supporting. But in some cities there are indeed more landmarks than in others. A tip perhaps: you could use our "my spots" feature to find landmarks! And we are working on multiple pictures :) Thanks again for your support. Please contact me - co-founder Bart viabart@spottedbylocals.com any time for questions or ideas.
Best resource for city breaks
Spotted by Locals is always my first stop when working out what I want to do in a city. The articles are written by smart people that love their city and want to share its secrets with you. I have actually had the chance to meet some of the writers that have written about my favourite spots around the world, and I can say that they really mean what they write. I wouldn’t know what to do if I went to a city without a Spotted by Locals guide!

Quick customer service response
I updated the app and for a while, thought I had lost all previous purchases. Received a very prompt reply to my query. All working fine within a few hours.
My favorite way of exploring a new (or sometimes well known city) and has been for several years now.

Yup, we'll try our best! Have fun and safe travels! 💚
