In theory this should be a very handy app. In practice I found its usefulness limited due to poor mobile signal inside many museums and/or flaky or non-existent free wi-fi. I know it's not the app's fault if the venue can't be bothered to provide reliable access but it would nice if tours could be downloaded for offline use - I couldn't find any way to do that. UPDATE. Good to know that the app automatically downloads guide content. It wasn't apparent to me that it does that.

Thank you for your feedback. The app automatically downloads guide content when open and connected to Wi-Fi, but doesn’t allow selective downloads; downloaded guides expire after 7 days. In the future, try opening a museum’s guide at home to download beforehand. Feel free to email feedback@bloombergconnects.org to share more about your experience.

bad navigation, needs more fluid transitions from entry to entry. Specifically: it feels like the developers have never used it to actually move through an exhibit. At every documented piece, the user must enter a multi digit code or pan/click a drawing of the facility. Click play. Go back to the previous screen and hop around within the app. It would be easier if you just had field to enter the number and it just plays the audio, then let's you enter another number without opening more screens.

Lovely idea but this is the s-l-o-w-e-s-t app ever. It opens, loops, hangs, flashes a map, hangs...I'm sorry, I'd love to use an app that does what it says it does. The problem is...it doesn't. Off to find something more reliable
