Everytime you open the app, it has to download the same things time and again, OK when the i360 free Wi-Fi connection to the internet is not hammered by hundreds of others also downloading content. It wouldn't be so much of a problem but who wants to spend their time waiting for this app rather than seeing the view they came for.

Ok so there is some good information on it, but you can read about this online or elsewhere. The app itself takes forever to load and every time you navigate away, perhaps to browse a text, email or otherwise, it has to load in full from the start...all over again.

Unusable. Takes ages to open any page. Low res panorama. No zoom.

What a dull and totally unrefined app.....for such a statement attraction on the seafront this is terrible and boring ....there's so much potential to something that's modern like use the sensors so that when you move the phone the 360 view moves with your phone rather than having to scroll round. Most people will only visit once and you've lost the chance to showboat imagination, talent and technology
