Explorer - AMNH NYC Reviews

Useful information, but flawed navigation

Call-me-Fred

Good overview and detailed info on contents and locations. Useful guides for kids. With museum wifi, navigation to specific exhibits in museum is difficult at best. Paper map was more useful.

Useless App

I love this museum, but this app is useless. I couldn't find any of the exhibits that I wanted to visit via the search or index. The museum hours weren't included. It could never find my location. It didn't have many of the halls listed by name.

Needs update

Content needs to be updated. Needs retina support. Needs iPhone 5 support.

Without wifi in the AMNH, this app is kinda useless

Tried using this app yesterday at the museum. My phone didn't have service in most of the museum, however, and the app needs wifi or data plan activity to work. So I'm not sure what the use of this app is.

So broken

I found this app to be completely useless while exploring the museum yesterday. Trying to use the app to find specific exhibits failed every time. First it couldn't "find" where I was in the museum (even though other apps could), so it tried to direct me from the front entrance. Not very useful. The maps also look nothing like the printed maps the museum hands out, so I couldn't even manage to compare the maps to figure out where I was/where I was trying to go.

Updates are great!

The updated version is amazing. The interface and responsiveness makes navigating the Museum easy and the tours are great!

Cannot find location... Anywhere.

Great app if I wasn't trying to use the GPS feature to help me figure out how to get places. Problem was it couldn't find me anywhere I tried it. LTE, 3G, top floor, bottom floor... didn't make a difference. Verizon issue maybe? Dunno. But it is pretty nifty otherwise. Would have gotten five stars if it worked. (And yes location settings were on)
