Pros and cons of Milan: Wallpaper* City Guide app for iPhone and iPad
Milan: Wallpaper* City Guide app good for
come city guide nn e il massimo ma ha dei bei wallpaper milanesi ! lassa pur ch el mund el disa ma milan le on gran milan!
The app looks great and really shines on iPad with a retina screen.
Some bad moments
Wallpaper City Guide are really good.. I have 27 apps and almost 10 books but no update since 2012. Its an insult for the readers and a house like Phaidon.
The Wallpaper guide to Milan is completely unusable. No information is available as each page crashes as soon as one attempts to open it. Total waste of time and money in its current form. Please redress soon as I am departing in one week and dont enjoy the idea of obtaining useless merchandise. From people specializing in design, this is a massive disappointment.
UPDATE: Pleased to report that my above-indexed complaints have since been corrected by a simple procedure. First step: I deleted and re-installed the app. When launching the app, the following instruction appears: "Milan" Would Like to Use your Current Location. The user is prompted to tap "OK", but doing this - if you are NOT yet in Milan, will render the app inoperable (as described above). If I select "Dont Allow" - the information can be accessed without the app crashing. Presumably, activation of the location-based features must be delayed until having reached the city in question.
The rating now goes from a one star to a three star.
POST-TRIP REPORT:
All my previous comments are, in one sense, irrelevant in that I wrote them before arriving in Milan. In a word: this app did not function at all while travelling. Attempting to access the app via WiFi in Milan did simply not bring up the application - it crashed each time upon trying to launch it. Requires complete overhaul before one can recommend this.
Im a fan of Wallpaper magazine and so was very excited to buy this new app.... But the result is not up to the paper version: 7 restaurants / 6 bars / 3 pasteries... Is it a real city guide ? may be usefull if you stay just for one day... too poor if more
Is this a city guide??? I wonder if these guys have ever been to Milan, cause I live here...and I tell you this "guide" sux.
Youd better use lonely planet o routard or anything else...
