Latest reviews of Chicago Travel Guide . app for iPhone and iPad
Absolutely without any interest! It is virtually empty, it installs with an awful automatic translation in French which is barely understandable, the content the map are totally hollow. A pure rip-off, do not pay for that thing! Cest du vol, nacheter pas, la traduction française est inutilisable ( traduction automatique), il ny a aucun contenu. Cest scandaleux de laisser vendre cette application à 4 euros!
This app provides some useful information but the reference to tourism in 2007 makes me wonder how up to date it is.
Waste of money. Could find very little detail. No info on famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright nor Chicago Art Institute.
This app has only limited information that is not useful. Attractions has only very generic info, no public transport info, no info operation hours, tickets price etc. Even no url to link the official web site of the attractions. I had to google to get the info. Useless app.
It does have some nice pictures but you really cant favorite any of the places you want to see. It does have history info on most of the areas.. But again, for a first time visitor its not helpful with favoring places
