Paris Travel Guide – mTrip for Android
I paid money for this app and I want a refund. Doesn't work when needed even with data abroad. Your better off with a map from the station which shows all the attractions then actually use the metro, which is far more accurate than this app. Took 1 hour to update with WiFi connection. I can't begin to explain how much of a let down this is! Do not buy!!!!
Very handy for navigating public transportation from one attraction to the next. Also handy for finding nearby cafes when out and about. Had trouble picking out attractions on the navigation map when they are close to each other (the orange icons are on top of each other). Would be nice if it were possible to re-arrange items across days rather than only within days.
Currently not possible to move an itinerary item from one day to the next. Lists always jump back to the beginning. Otherwise excellent.
The application offers a good database of various things in Paris but its UI ruins the experience. The map view is not detailed enough to be useful, the ability to narrow down attractions (e.g. restaurants) does not really have enough details to allow choosing an attraction (e.g. restaurant) without an Internet connection, and the subway map is a low-resolution JPEG that is hard to navigate. I expected a an "offline street life saver" and got an app that didn't prove useful even once in my trip.
Force close as hell! I want my money back.
did not work on my x8 floyo ROM. With latest update it is OK. did a great job navigating walks between landmarks!
How come an app that uses 30mb doesn't have the option to move to SD? Apart from that, it's an amazing guide!
GPS on Galaxy S does not work without data access, which makes this app useless unless you want to pay for data roaming.
Installed fine on Droid. Worked fine in hotel room with WiFi connected. Did not work at all after disconnecting from WiFi. Who knows? Maybe there was a fixable issue with my particular phone/configuration, but I wasn't going to waste my short time in Paris trying to make this piece of crap work, so there's $5.99 flushed down the crapper. My recommendation is to forget it if you need to use it offline.
Interesting features but a bit laggy. Really needs option to move to SD card!!! Also information on attractions in the overview should be extended!
Rating simply based on the fact it wouldn't install on my Hero after purchase. Can you imagine having the same frustrations with Apple App store? No.
A bit buggy still... and the map needs improvements. But devlopers were very responsive and even helped fix a bug on my phone.
Works as adverised. Could use some improvements. Zoom is too limited.
Was useful for getting around the city. Clicking the correct site was challenging when many were close together. Needs more restaurant reviews.
Interestingly shopping is not an option.
Can't even get to install. After initial refusal by market, got my money back. I only wanted to try and evaluate the app.

Reasonably good. The UI takes some getting used to.
