Actually dangerous. Since most vehicles use Google auto, this app does not. You have to hold your phone, resulting in distracted driving. No sound comes through, only through the phone. One of the worst designed apps I've seen in a while.

Not a bad self guided tour. A little expensive for the signed tour I purchased but that's because I was in a hurry and didn't read or could have got a bundle deal and saved a little money in the long run. The only glitch was the location and that wasn't bad. App had us 50 ft ahead of where we were so the app would start speaking b4 we reached the point we needed to be at but that was easily paused and made it work. Thank you

This is the way to tour the Gettysburg battlefields! Really easy to follow the tour, in depth story telling and it is nice to do at your own pace. We couldn't finish in one day but were able to pick up on day 2 where we left off with ease. The app detects where you are using GPS and starts the prompt for the area.

This was a decent tour but part of the NPS tour route closure ended Sept 30 and this app still hasn't updated that. Had to spend some time driving around and hitting some of the waypoints the app's routing still has "detoured" despite the NPS already reopening them. I would expect slightly better for a product that is for-profit.

Garbage. Bought this for a drive through around the Gettysburg battlefield and surrounding areas. Nothing but problems. Constantly missing turns because of app issues with Google maps, tour guide getting stuck, etc. Had to turn it off and figure it out ourselves.

Only one hiccup in directions at Culps Hill. But very minor. otherwise, it was a great tour with great pacing. And we liked being able to do the battlefield at our own pace. Cheaper than a guided or bus tour. And I think the content is as complete, if not better. Got tip: Don't forget to check out the "Learn More" for extra content.

Very informative! Provides narration as you approach points of interest, covering the full battle chronologically. Follows the posted auto route so no problem following along. We had a couple of minor issues but I'm pretty sure that had to do with GPS issues on the phone; nothing can really be done about that! Everything synced back up quickly. Thanks for the professional guide through this historical event.

This was a great experience. My only complaint was that several times when we stopped to explore a site and then got back in the car to move on, the app had kind of ghosted and had to be stopped and restarted. But, navigating to the list view made it easy to pick back up where we were at.

Great narration! Couple glitches but overall worked great. We took our time and ran a couple off course detours. It picked up right where it needed and kept us on track. Only missed 2 turns that could have been a little clearer but with the map was easy to get back to them. Hoping to do the battlefield ghost tour tonight with your app.

This app froze repeatedly, needing reboot and when the driving path crossed over itself (street intersections, turns), it was difficult to determine which way to go because all gps paths are indicated identically with red path lines. Multiple wrong turns ensued, especially by culps hill, causing app commentary to freeze and crash. For a $10 PAID app, this is garbage. I would like my money back
