Top Pcmac Reviews

  • Made the trip so much better

    By floridalane (Pcmac user)

    I read the reviews and still found this ap better than expected. I was in DC for 4 days and this ap was perfect for my trip. I knew a little more about where i was when site seeing and was able to find other non National Mall / Smithsonian landmarks. The postcard photos are perfect and I shared them with everyone. I would definitely recommend this ap. It made my trip so much better.
  • Terrible

    By FlaTim (Pcmac user)

    The main reason I downloaded this was to try to find operating hours because most of DC buildings close up at 5:30 or so. This app really only provides a map... Which is useful but not a robust app I was looking for. In addition some of the links don't work and things are listed that that don't really exist anymore (ie national aquarium which closed a couple years ago). Clearly not updated with any new or relevant info other than map
  • Clunky and slow to open

    By Qpqpddd (Pcmac user)

    This app contains some very good information about National sites. And the maps are pretty good too. Unfortunately, the app often takes forever to open, so the information can’t be accessed. I also lost a few pictures because the postcard function really doesn’t work. It appears to operate, but no one received any of the photos I sent, and they aren’t saved anywhere that I can find.
  • Must-have app for DC tourists

    By Uecbeidchn (Pcmac user)

    This app is stellar for planning a DC trip. Tons of info, links to websites, excellent photos, indispensable map, neatly arranged and organized. Thank you for fixing the text bug!! Now it's perfect! If you're planning a sight-seeing trip to DC, you must have this app. Tourist's best friend.
