Latest reviews of Seattle Map & Walks (F) app for iPhone and iPad
This app fell far short of my expectations. This app misses some of the truly interesting sites, gives very little info on what it does include and expects one to walk miles to see just a few sites. One tour is 17 km long!The gallery section for example omits most of the exciting galleries and instead sends us to dull, commercial sites in belltown and downtown including a jewelry store and a furniture store. This app needs more work but the fremont tour and the pioneer sq tour are ok.
We selected the Seattle Art Gallery tour. Of the first 5, 3 are out of business. And have been closed several years.
Useless in Seattle.
