About our guides:
We make great, interactive travel guides.
To make our guides we use the content that is freely available. Open content sites like Wikitravel, Wikipedia, World66 and Openstreetmap are among the best resources for any traveler. Our mission is to make that content relevant for you. So we mix and mash and annotate - and we distill great, relevant travel guides out of it.
We like open content. In fact some of us were involved in World66, one of the first open content travel guides on the web. Our travel guides are very much a re-mix of open content out there.
Currently we're using content from: Wikipedia, Wikitravel, World66, Open Streetmaps, DMOZ and Chefmoz
We're big fans of these projects. If you stumble across some inaccurate information in this guide, we would appreciate it if you correct it on the web site of these projects.
Initially it is a very good app. Asides from 2 things. 1. No section about Davao and 2. Why is the phrasebook in spanish???
Plain: useful, professionally developed, accurate, clear and and plenty of information.
My partner and I often travel to different places in The Philippines, and this app is a good compliment to our adventures. It helps us get to know the place we are about to vist. However, my only issue about this app is that the national language of the Philippines is "Filipino" or "Tagalog" and not Spanish. A minor update can fix this, for the sake of foreign users. Other than that, it's the next best thing to having a tour guide with you wherever you go.
If you are traveling to the Philippines, then is is a great app to have. I found it very useful in finding places and reading up on where I was at.
