Ratings and Reviews
Sufficient Application for tourists
1 Do not forget those you left behind. 2 France’s TT’s (tourist traps) are renown for an assortment of gifts $10 or less sized well for your carryon valises. 3 They also made the guillotine more famous than any magician ever, Houdini included. 4 Inhalation of nicotine is now permitted via e-cigarette devices in almost every public space. 5 When elsewhere, use care. 6 This is France we are discussing. 7 refer to sentence 3.
Increased the quality of our trip!
When we went to Versailles in March, the line to get the headphones was long and we weren’t sure if it cost money so we skipped it and I found this app! It was way easier to navigate than I expected and gave incredible information that was pretty easy to follow. I’m someone who loves to read plaques when I go to museums. Well, Versailles doesn’t really have plaques so you kind of just have to guess about things. This app filled in so many details! There are even details about the grounds and La Trianon and Le Petite Trianon. The map was accurate and detailed. The only thing that got confusing was that it isn’t up-to-date on a couple areas that tourists are not allowed to go to right now.
Won’t work without internet
It says it works entirely without an internet connection but … I got to Versailles and tried to use it. At best I could get into the app where I found it just had links to download different things, which seemed odd for an app that says it didn’t need an internet connection. I tried again and it just wouldn’t go past the starting screen. I think it checks for updates, so if you’re in airplane mode that just fails and you get the option to download things, I’d your in Versailles with no functioning connection it just hangs.
So if you open the app before going, go into all the sections and download everything, then go into airplane mode then maybe? But if you just get the app believing what it says about not needing internet then best case it’s useless, worst case it won’t even open.
Just some really WEIRD decisions for a supposedly offline app.
