The information here is great, but the app’s functionality still has a ways to go. The GPS sometimes works, and sometimes doesn’t. It’s very hard to go back-and-forth between the information and the map. Every time you go back to the map, it zooms all the way out, so you have to fiddle with it to see where you are. On a cold day this made it really difficult to navigate.Because the GPS triggering didn’t always work, I ended up reading the information more than I listened to it.

My wife and I were visiting Boston for the first time together and wanted to walk the Freedom Trail. Based on what we were looking for, we decided self-guided, preferable audio tour, would be best. We arrived at stop one, the Visitors Center in Boston Commons. When we realized a self-guided tour map was $15, we decided right away to try the app. We shared a pair of AirPods and listened to narration at each stop. The app uses GPS to automatically start the next audio track while walking through the trail. Although I’ll probably never use the app again, the $10 was easily worth it and I’d buy again. Especially to support the official app.

The app has a lot of good content and quotes from different people, etc. But- At many sites the audio would stop abruptly at the same spot no matter how many times I tried to play it- the transitions between stops can be a bit glitchy and hard to follow. You had to manually go back and play different segments

I don’t usually write reviews, but considering the negativity, thought it was worthwhile. I didn’t try the audio feature, but the map was brilliant with nice tidbits about each stop. Well worth the $10 as opposed to an overpriced tour guide you can’t hear. And 40 stops compared to 10 or so with a guide. Stop by Night Shift brewing on the way to Bunker Hill! A pleasant place to rehydrate 😀
