Ratings and Reviews
Zoom issues
It’s an amazing app to learn about history and displacement, however you can only research for about 15-20 minutes at a time before the zoom stops working and the maps starts going haywire.. I’d love to continue to use this as it’s very helpful in looking into my city history, however I think a few tweaks could make this run a lot better.
Fixed and fantastic
I would ignore the older reviews, none of the negatives mentioned like trouble zooming and app crashes appear to exist anymore. I keep coming back to this app and haven’t had any problems with it so far. I look at lots of old maps and this is a much easier route to seeing them than digging around in a variety of websites. Good job devs - hope you keep supporting this very useful tool.
The issue…
I love the capabilities of this app. However, it constantly freezes up on me. Sometimes after ten minutes or so and then sometimes as soon as the map loads it will start to do different tasks than commanded. I can’t not use the app because of its potential. I just wish that you guys could get it working properly. Thank you…
