This app is great but it needs an update there are almost 100k historical markers in the database now and the app only shows around 75k                 Great app but needs an update theresamooninthesky
Downloaded this while driving through Texas south towing our RV The roadside historical markers were of interest but not practical to pull over for Figured this app would be the answer not so much We ve reached NV now and finally it has some roadside markers that show up for us to read while driving by Needs additional roadside entries             Disappointed More Money please
I ve tried just about every historical marker app on the app store and this one is by far the best It s easy to use and works as described I m using the app with my iPhone 7 with iOS 10 1 and it seems to work fine so not sure what all the negative comments are about                     Best of the history apps ColDavidStuartRet
The most recent update fixed the bug that prevented the app from being used in iOS 10 that people are complaining about in the comments I ve used the app on and off for a few years and the developer has always been quick to fix these kinds of problems Overall it s a fun app if you like hunting for historical markers                     Update Fixed Recent Bug With iOS 10 __CarolinaBirder__
I m so happy that I found this app It s simple and works as advertised My wife and I use it on our road trips through the Appalachians and it s become an indespensible resource for learning about local history I ve written Dan the author a couple of times to report bugs and always recieved a quick response My only suggestion would be to include the ability to upload new images of markers but Dan tells me that feature is in the works so fingers crossed It s a great app and definitely 5 out of 5 stars                     Fantastic App JackKerouacWannabe
Crashes constantly iOS 10     Crashes constantly iOS 10 Roadtripper901
Crashes whenever I press the go to current location button Crashes if I try to swipe to a different location     Crashes on os10 lajollaguy
Driving along we didn t have time to stop at a historical marker seems signs never give enough notice when driving 55 mph I thought to myself hmmmmm I wonder if there s an app for that and sure enough Only a mile down the road I knew what the historical marker was for Also found out the cemetery where my grandparents are buried has a historical marker Never knew that before Thanks so much for a great app We love this type of info as we re driving                     Exactly what I was looking for hddebbie123446789
Handy informational tool Also at one point there was a glitch quick email response and problem solved                     Works as advertised Colorad123
By far the best of the historical marker apps available on the app store Being able to see photos of the markers really sets it apart The app is a joy to use and elegant in its simplicity                     The best of the historical marker apps SchrodingersKattyCat
Looks like the v3 4 update fixed the bug that everyone has been reporting in the comments I wrote the author last week and got an immediate response saying that he was working on a fix Forutnetely the update came in just in time for the 4th of July weekend In any case this is one of my favorite road trip apps and I can t recommend it enough Please keep up the good work                     The app is fixed and working great NYExplorer
Loved it at first No shuts down when a location is opened Sent info to support email but no change     No longer works Clemtiger one
As noted the app does not work It was great for a few weeks and it started shutting down Before that issue I loved it I sent an email to app support when the problem started and nothing changed They either don t monitor or don t care     Shuts down in one second Clemtiger one
Was super excited to download this app while traveling on vacation Pulled up great sights but when clicking the more info icon the app would kick me out and I would have to start over again never providing me the opportunity to read the entire history         App Shuts Down TeachHistory
The speech engine is absolutely terrible meaning the voice you listen to which reads the markers out loud It sounds like a bad 1980 s version of a talking robot Hard to understand I realize a good speech engine may be expensive but you can t advertise text to speech and have it be as lousy as this The database interaction is great so if you travel and want to sit and read on your phone what the local markers say then this would be fine for that But I was hoping this would read the markers to me as I drive past them I guess it will but it will be painful to listen to             Speech engine terrible Database good SteveinKosovo
I really can t recommend this enough It s been a joy to use this app to learn about all the history around the Washington DC area The photos of the markers really makes this one above and beyond the other historical markers apps on the app store                     Wonderful App DeceptiKHAAAN
I ve always loved historical markers and so was excited to find this app It s been a great way to learn about local history and read markers while traveling without having to stop for each one Never encountered any major problems with the app and the updates have made good changes                     Great app EleanorG84
I highly recommend this app No performance issues sleek appearance and the updates are great I live in a very historical area in VA and love that I can mark where I ve been This app has certainly come a long way Bravo                     Love the update Jeniffer1117
Won t Open iOS 7 1 2     Historical Markers 3 2 Atalana2
My wife and I enjoyed using it this past weekend in Hunterdon County NJ It worked great The only feedback was that it would be even better if we could check off the markers we visited and print off a report when done for the day and then pick up where we left off next time around                 Great app Superjay89
My husband and I are trying to get all of the California markers We have about 150 I ve got a nice little spreadsheet keeping track of our progress It would be so nice if this app let you mark stuff you ve seen and maybe earn stars for accomplishments like clearing out a county or doing the first 20 or doing one in every county state I would so pay a couple of bucks to support that                 Wish I could count my markers kateschmidt
I would have given this app 5 stars if it had two more functions which I was told by the app creator that it was coming up However it never has It needs a been there option so you can mark off and keep track what markers you have seen The second is a favorites section If it had those two functions I would give it a 5                 Almost five stars but Blove24
I ve been really enjoying this app I ve been able to pull it up pretty much anywhere I ve been in NY and learn something new about the area I really can t recommend this enough                     So many markers SputNik00
This app is missing many historical markers I do NOT recommend this app         Disappointed Marydill6645
Loaded this app because we were passing markers on a trip through SE Texas Once loaded the local roadside markers were not listed I will seek a refund         Missing data Texas Traveler
This ap was great traveling with We were able to look ahead to places while traveling to see what was around                     Great Tx adam
I rarely review apps but this one has really been a pleasure to use and has quickly become one of my favorites Being able to see pictures of the markers has been a great improvement over the previous versions It s just been a lot of fun all around                     One of my favorites WashingtonNatsFan
This was such a fun app to use during a long road trip In addition to the Historical Markers it also gives info on many historical buildings A wonderful source of local information                     Love this app Stella6288
We downloaded this app to use on a long roadtrip I loved not having to stop at every historical marker but still getting the info I also used it to look ahead and see if there was a reason to stop                     Very helpful JenniferMom
The disappearing menu bar glitch is fixed Stable through flick and pinch If the database is in correct it would have more to do with the national database and the software author s transcription Using this app my Texas history app and a good wiki app the landscape sparkles with jewels of historic beauty old review below I do not travel extensively in the Unites States I cannot attest to the absolute accuracy of this App In a recent trip to coastal Georgia and South Carolina I found the locations to be rather accurate and numerous However it does not and cannot provide the location of every state and local historic designations because it does not resource every database From that standpoint I like this app and certainly understand it has limits The most irritating aspect in its operation is the the bottom menu bar will disappear with continued use This requires I quit the app launch and then re locate my position After a couple inquiries the Menu Bar is again lost Too bad If this niggling problem were corrected the app would garner a four to five star rating                 Adjunct And Problems Solved macinsetex
I ve had this app for quite some time NEVER finds anything but the Atlantic Ocean Very disappointing     Terrible and Useless Rsljll
I have a pretty low tolerance for apps that crash before they ve done anything at all I hit the GPS arrow to center on me then the magnifying glass Crash iOS 6 3 on iPhone 5 Great idea keep iterating Implementation is not very mature so far Can I get a refund     Crash on first button press assfghjklqwertyuytreeq
I m currently in Concord NH Just browsing through the Wikipedia list I see many Historical Markers in Concord But in the app Just two both for Franklin Pierce This app is a total waste of money     Don t waste your money ErinG.
App missing signs in my home town Some don t show info needs lots of updating         Not a very good app John from Michigan
The app opens in the last location I used it and every time I try to move it to the area I m in it shows in the Atlantic Ocean Please fix this Otherwise this app is useless     After update Hltdarby
I like it but wish more were listed                 Markets Coit
Worst app I have ever bought Drove from North Texas to Colorado with none of the roadside historical markers showing up in the map So disappointing A few markers did come up but they were random and unimportant One star and that is only because the map is accurate     Waste of money Luvmygoldenz
I was reasonably happy with the markers I saw close to home Remarksble Ohio had more but this had some they didn t But when I click on the info about the marker the program closes Happened for all markers I tried This is a SERIOUS BUG Please fix     Crashes when I click on a marker LWB2002
Wherever you are wherever you go this app tells you all about the historically significant sights around you Love it                     Fabulous fun DontWant2Cook
Downloaded the app three days ago Showed marker sites the first couple times I opened it Going on a trip today and was looking forward to using this when I was traveling but when I open the app not a single marker shows up just a blank map Like you had an unmarked Google map up Worthless     Awful Vermont Guy
I love this app and will read just to read I enjoy jumping to different parts of the country and learning the local history                     Awesome Andergra
Great app for anyone who enjoys historical site                     Great historical app Jeremy843
I used and loved this app Then I upgraded my iPad first gen to os5 Now I can t reload this app It says I have to get os6 which seems not to be available for this iPad generation I would love to have this app back as I travel extensively and enjoy the markers I find Please fix this     Loved this app uwavetech
I had this App but the update is only for IOS 6 please make a version compatible with the original iPad     Version for original iPad needed Vgsplayer
Sorry that it seems I can no longer update this app I have an iPad one prob many kids do too and use it in car travels Other apps have figured out a way to update for all ages of iPads Could you look into that please                 iPad one AquaRN
As we were traveling this weekend I noticed the historical marker signs and each one had a number listed So I went to the app store and downloaded the historical marker app NONE of the signs were in the app VERY disappointed     Historical markers Gma Lorna
An app is needed to find highway and historical markers but don t bother with this one The data only covers the east coast     Disappointing Andyw0530
Shows nothing in Vermont No help function Does checking on a filter add it or block it Nothing in catalog     Worthless Bob675426
I just got back from a trip and passed by several markers Got home and discovered this app Downloaded it and tried to look up the historical markers I passed and only found two within a very large area Markers descriptions are neat but very few if them are listed         Very few markers Creativemike22
No obvious way to use the app No instructions No typical usage scenarios Does not appear to have any push functionality at all which makes it worthless unless you want to drive down a road trying to watch your iPhone screen at the same time in case you drive up on a historical marker and as far as I can tell youd be out of luck even if you did because I dont think the app would even show the marker as you drove by I drove by several historical markers and there was no alert I cant even see any markers on the map What the heck is the filter for Does it exclude or include And why would I be interested in universities and theatres What about HISTORY Worthless app     Poor design
Downloaded the app three days ago Showed marker sites the first couple times I opened it Going on a trip today and was looking forward to using this when I was traveling butwhen I open the app not a single marker shows up just a blank map Like you had an unmarked Google map up Worthless     Awful
I like it but wish more were listed              Markets
Shows markers on map just fine but every single time I click on I for Info it crashes        Crashes constantly
This version does not work on the iPad 1     Doesnt Work
Dont waste your money Doesnt work     What A Waste of
App fails to show any markers on iPad 3 Waste of money     Doesnt work on iPad 3
This ap was great traveling with We were able to look ahead to places while traveling to see what was around                 Great
This works fine as an aid It can help you plan your next ride to an historic site But you have to get out of your automobile and see the markers and their landscapes to appreciate these places                 Good App

Does not work     Markers
I use this app to target good sites for metal detecting Not the actual landmark of course but in the vicinity I wish the cache was increased so that more pinpoints would load at a time as I have found that by reloading grids sometimes displays additional landmarks even when done at the same zoom Still the app has been perfect for what I use it for                 Does exactly as advertised with accuracy
Shows nothing in Vermont No help function Does checking on a filter add it or block it Nothing in catalog     Worthless

I second the positive reviews for Historical Markers Its fun its simple and its worked great for me If youre curious about historical place markers I can guarantee that youll enjoy this app                 Very Nice App
Ive been really enjoying this app Ive been able to pull it up pretty much anywhere Ive been in NY and learn something new about the area I really cant recommend this enough                 So many markers
Great app Although not all markers are listed this would be impossible to keep up to date there are enough to keep things interesting Now if the NPS would just digitize the national register apps it would be fabulous Hours of fun for the out and about history lover              What happened here fanatic
This is a really fun and useful app Ive used it to discover all kinds of interesting places here in Chicago that I never new existed Im really looking forward to using it on our next road trip Keep up the good work                 Nice Work
This app is awesome I always wanted to stop and read the historical markers but not enough to impact my travel time Now I get to read or have them read to me when driving the markers while traveling Although this apps database doesnt contain all historical markers it has had most of the markers I have seen while traveling Over the past 6 months I have read a lot interesting historical tidbits that I never would have seen without this app I would recommend this app to everyone Version 21 was great and now version 22 doubled the database of markers Keep up the good work                 Great App Makes Road Trips Fun
This app is missing many historical markers I do NOT recommend this app        Disappointed
Loaded this app because we were passing markers on a trip through SE Texas Once loaded the local roadside markers were not listed I will seek a refund        Missing data
Ive really enjoyed using this app Its pretty simple you scroll around the map to see the location of historical markers and you click on the pins to see more information Yes not every marker is in their database I cant see how this could ever be possible and the app has crashed on me under heavy use but neither fact takes away from the fact that Ive gotten a ton of use out of this app and it only cost me 2 The developer also seems to be quick about fixing bugs and posting updates which is a plus Some of these more recent reviews are pretty idiotic Do you really need typical usage scenarios for a mapping app Also Ive found nothing wrong with the English and grammar in the descriptions I definitely recommend this app                 I love this app
Great app for anyone who enjoys historical site                 Great historical app
My wife and I enjoyed using it this past weekend in Hunterdon County NJ It worked great The only feedback was that it would be even better if we could check off the markers we visited and print off a report when done for the day and then pick up where we left off next time around              Great app

The app itself seems to work ok but the site marker descriptions are terrible Theyre written in broken English that can sometimes be incredibly difficult to read Id avoid this app Youre almost better off just searching Wikipedia        Poorly written descriptions
