Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. This app gives you the option to turn off the GPS tracking in the background to prolong the battery life.

Latest reviews of London Map & Walks (F) app for iPhone and iPad

Very usable... Even without network connection...
Very good
Do not buy it overpriced and useless
The application is a rip-off, pour features, does not allow you to look for an interest point from the map. It only guide you to the next destination on a predefined tour. The tours are useless as well, you can easily find the same info on site. I definitely expect more for a 4$ application: more points of interest, a subway map, ability to enter a destination and get routed etc None of the above are available hence the application is useless. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY on This!!!
Good, but not perfect.
I expected a bit more of this app. The map used is far from google maps or even iOS native maps. Of course it works off-line though. The main functionality, listing and showing attractions could be easily found on any London travel web site. So i would recommend to use the lite version off this app, because there is no point in spending money on HD map which is really weak.
Anyone who knows london will hate this app
It features walks like "harry potter trail" - oh dear! If you want some really interesting city walks in London, pick up a print copy of DKs eyewitness London travel guide at your local bookstore and embark on many hours of interesting walks in London.
Very useful for navigation
It has the basic walking routs and the tools for finding your way around offline without data charges are outstanding. It would be nice if the map fonts were a little larger. Google maps is better. But the data charges for google maps are high.
