Very useful, but restarts every time the screen closes

Frustrating that every time the screen is closed, the app completely closes too. Getting the detail of a painting then requires multiple steps starting from choosing the museum.

So happy to discover this app!

I’m super excited to discover this app on my visit to Frick Collection and Guggenheim. Even having arts background I’ve been struggling to understand some contemporary art or didn’t do enough research about each artist’s background. This app is a guide to all arts & culture organizations in my pocket. I enjoyed every visit to the museums included so much more now - I understand artistic choices now, enjoy behind the scene stories and little details that I would miss otherwise. I rediscovered art all over again and enjoy my time at the museums much more now.

Poorly designed app that is annoying to use in a museum

The use case of his app is very frequently pulling your phone from your pocket/purse and quickly accessing information. QUICKLY is the important word, but it fails at that.

First, every time I open the app, it freezes for 5-10 seconds. Why? Who knows. Also the back button fails to work much of the time.

Let's say that I'm in a gallery, and the numbers of each artwork increases sequentially. Not all galleries do this, but probably common enough. So if I'm at artwork #405 and need to get to #406 which is right next to it, there should obviously be a button to do that, right? Nope. I have back out, and input 406. FOR EVERY SINGLE ARTWORK. so frustrating.
