I just did a 3000 mile road trip and tried to use this app It was mostly useless It didnt find most of the local attractions and the information was limited Stick with Trip Advisor     Useless app
The app sounds awesome but most of the stuff they show you is history site Not really adventurous stuff     Nothing but history sites
Great idea Just few cons Limited sharing option Font is not impressive Too much words              cool app
Slow whens ingress coming     Skies
It has a great potential not more than Schemer though x But hangs crashes bugs Lacks help and information about using the app Lacks customizations           Shoddy with potential
Featurewise the app is ok but it keeps on tracking your location and not sure what it is doing doing with that data or to whom it is sending the data for what purpose Changed setting to use location only when using the app        Beware App Always Tracking Your Location
It is a batterydraining app Despite setting up occasional updates it ate up 9 of battery life in just 24 hours when I had never opened the app        Great idea but
I have taken the time to edit my interests to tailor my notifications but most notifications have nothing to do with my interests Sometimes it seems like theyve sold ad space to random businesses While in Charlottesville VA a place full of history and wineries two of my interests I received very few related notifications I got better info from road signs And when I got notified about a strip mall and a Wachovia Bank that was the last straw Uninstalling today        Sounded like a good idea
Very little actually works And you cant plan ahead     Poorly done
It didnt show a single point of interest anywhere on the map I know I dont live in the most interesting place but I know theres some historical places near me When looking at other towns nothing popped up either Nothing came up at all Then the app froze and crashed     Terrible
This app is SO cool I love seeing the history both in my neighborhood and when I am on vacation It does seem to crash pretty frequently but the images and information keep me coming back One of my favorite apps I just wish it would stay open for extended periods Hopefully this gets fixed soon Thanks Google              Love it
Shows neighboring town but very little from my own townlike nothing on the still operating farm that Henry Ford started for the sole purpose of trying out the Ford tractor before putting it in production A designated historical farm so shoulda been easy to find Plenty of historical Ford places here              Good BUT
Before you decide to use this app you better read the privacy policy This app tracks what youre doing and google saves the information and can use it however they want Totally unacceptable     Horrendous privacy policy
Who knew I was surrounded by historic buildings Great app lot of fun                 Fantastic
Its bad     Bad
So I was in Europe on vacation and had some success finding neat things via this app Once I was home in the US it all fell apart At one point I got a notification telling me the names of all the interstates running through my town Another let me know I was near a hospital which might have been useful if I was bleeding Whatever dataset they are using is filled with a lot of boring uninteresting locations and needs to be pruned        Needs curation
Awesome app makes you see your regular life in a whole new way                 Awesome app
Such a cool idea and has helped me learn more about my city in the last 4 months than I have learned in the last 4 years                 Awesome app to discover your surroundings
Excellent app Very interesting                 Great idea
Even after upgrading to the latest ios and app versions the app crashes upon opening Useless     Completely unstablecrashes on opening
Its a great idea as I was told by a teacher I can visit places on this app for extra credit and it keeps buzzing for no reasonand its annoying me     Great idea terrible execution
Some info is outdated though it does help find some interesting stuff Too bad the app is so sluggish to respond that I often quit out because I am tired of waiting for it to load the next page        Hit or Miss
Just downloaded this app and in my town it is showing places that have not existed in many years This would cause people to get off the interstate to come into towns to view buildings that havent been here in several decades It may be OK for history but not for visiting locations that do not exist     False info
The app works great Love anything from google                 Love the app
Amazing app I live in a medium sized urban area there is tons of information in this app Its a great start I just wish there was a list view so I can view things farther away Its annoying to click on each dot on the map just to see what it is           I love thisbut
Cool app                 Great app
This app is very easy to use and shares so much information Love it and look forward to learning more and checking out new things through it                 Love love this
Thought this was going to be a cool app that shows interesting historical facts about locations you know like you might see on an actual field trip Instead it just bombards me with ads for local restaurants and bars Sad     Had potential but
I am going to delete this app because I cannot figure out how to clear the history     Clear history
So often Ive driven by a historical marker wondered what it said This answers that question gives so much more Please keep expanding this app Its awesome                 At last
This app rocks Its a mobile history lesson Impress your friends with all of your new found knowledge of local obscure history                 Freakin cool
Most of the historic photos in our town contain incorrect information and are placed somewhat randomly on the map     Misinformation
Very good idea but needs some improvement It would be very nice if there was a filter for the categories That would get it up to 4 stars in my mind Also some of the markers are the exact same thing For example a restaurant called Vinsetta Garage shows up twice           OK
You need to be logged into a gmail account to use this app Call me crazy but I dont have a gmail account or do I have any interest in having one So The app is useless for me     Need A Gmail Account
Just google trying to find out about everywhere I go to send me ads Just tired of it     Google
Ive used this app on two continents and in four cities Tokyo Toronto New York and Los Angeles and its been great in all places For example using this app while walking down Torontos Yonge Street I the American acted as tour guide for my friend from the suburbs That building was built in 1905 and used to be the Bank of Toronto The app draws from a wide variety of websites food travel history architecture shopping but if any are not to your taste you can always uncheck them in the settings box so you can personalize your experience The only reason Im giving it four stars instead of five is a particular quirk if the location information from the source is faulty the app defaults to Google Maps default location for the city In the case of Tokyo its Tokyo City Hall so there are 115 cards pinned to that location almost none of them relevant or accurate So a bit more of proactive curating would be helpful              Extraordinarily useful
I downloaded this app to check out the Spark Women on the map feature It took me a while to find the feature becausethere is not search I finally found it and realized you can check your interests to be included in the map There are hundreds of maps that can be included And it comes with all of them checked So if I only want to use a couple then I have to go uncheck hundreds of others There should be an uncheck all option And a search maps option           Great idea but missing features
2115 update Going bad to worse Time to delete Unusable while waiting for slow backend Great contentif it ever starts responding Internet loading is blocking the user interface Pretty poor junior varsity programming     Unresponsive user interface
What a great concept for an app When I first got it I was frequently alerted to historical info suggestions neighborhood highlights I even found a brewery blocks away from me that I didnt know existed But lately it has been freezing loading for so long I lose interest or just glitchy Such a clever app thats getting me so frustrated Ive considered deleting it but I want to keep it see it work properly again Sigh        So frustrating
Very fun and interesting app I havent seen one like it yet Well done google                 Fun
This app is a great idea but the functionality on my iPhone is terrible When I click the title of a card it takes at least 1520 seconds to open Similar nonresponsiveness for closing a card My device is a 4S 8GB        Good idea in theory please make it work better
A cool idea an app that alerts you to nearby interesting spots based on different blogs that you might be interested in but poorly executed Very buggy Freezes constantly App can get frozen if you poke around too much in the options        Good idea bad execution
As a huge history buff I must say this is the coolest app I have downloaded in a long time The only thing I would change is the ability to position the map and display a list from that point since I find myself wanting to learn more Great job I recommend this app highly                 Awesome
Gives a very comprehensive list of plaques that are clearly marked We started calling it the what did we miss app for the notifications 2 miles after passing the point of interest Filters for radius would be handy It was only useful in places we stopped for other reasons as it doesnt give any advance warning     Plaques
Nice idea but when it slipped into some sort of option mode where it wanted me to choose title with headphones and frequency of notifications there was no back arrow and no sliding of finger on that screen that would let me go back to the main page So I deleted this app     Try again
I downloaded this yesterday after reading about it in a related app review Its very impressive I commute from NJ to NYC by train every morning and the app kicked in immediately pointing out interesting I could see from my train window I set it to read the title and description and the narration voice is very smooth Love it                 Very impressive
Every time Ive used this there are more restaurants that show up than anything else Sorry thats not what I was expecting with an app called Field Trip     Field Trip or Food Trip
This is quite an impressive app And the information they source for the cardsits good stuff If Im selfguiding myself through a city then Ill be using this for sure I havent figured out how to get the audio to work yet though But thats really cool how alerts come based on your location                 Very impressive
This app will not shut up even if you kill the app It does not respect turning it off I had to remove the app from my phone to silence the bitch off my phone     Gave my iPhone cancer
HELP I cannot figure out how to change my location on Field Trip and there is not a google support box to ask this question I am in California and want the geo location setting to be at a specific address in Hawaii as I do the Internet Marketing for an inn located there Does anyone know how to do this and is it possible THANKS           How to change geo location on Field Trip app
