Description

Welcome to the BetterMaps ZooMap app, Bronx Zoo version. Our custom interactive map plans the shortest route to your destination. Our mapping works even if you don't have a signal (web-based maps can't do that). Find animals, rides & attractions, food and more and our map will guide you to your destination. Get food (or a beer) and find the bathrooms when you're done (quickly!) Walk around knowing you don't have to remember where you parked (we do that for you - then bring you back to the car at the end of a long day). So have fun and get mapped. Free! - other zoos coming soon.

ZooMap is not affiliated with the Bronx Zoo but we are a New York company (located in Brooklyn), and we LOVE the Bronx Zoo. When our CEO saw people enter the zoo and rush to a poorly executed wall map or try to navigate using an outdated paper map (uh, save the planet much?) he knew we could help. Our goal is to increase your fun, while saving your time (and trees).

The BetterMaps ZooMap, Bronx Zoo version truly is the best way to explore the Bronx Zoo (more zoos are coming online very soon) without missing anything that you and/or the family want to see during your visit. The ZooMap digital guide brings you a whole new level of closeness to everything the Bronx Zoo has to offer. Once you have found what you are looking for, our custom algorithm shows you route overview, how away you are, and approximate time to walk there. Simply hit Go and just follow the blue line to get there. Our flashlight points you in the right direction (use your phone as a wayfinder). Veer off the path, no problem, our map adapts to your movements and reroutes instantly.

Tap onscreen icons, use the search bar or drop down menu to find animals, food, rides and attractions – even bathrooms and water fountains on those hot days. Soon you will be able to receive notifications concerning feeding times, ride closures or any other up to the minute information you need to have the best time possible in the zoo.

Adding a 4th dimension to mapping tools

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.

Hello rhtsavannah - thank you for your amazing comments - we are SO glad you liked the app, please tell your friends :)

Show me what I want to see!

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.

1st time using

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.

Hello tisabelp - Thank you so much for your wonderful review, we are so glad you had a great experience with our app. Team BetterMaps
