Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The interface is really nice with a side and easy to access to all features and sections, but no material design. |
Function8
It takes a while to load and even though you'll find interesting places, some of them might not be featured in the app. |
Security8
It needs access to many sections of your phone, but it shouldn't really pose any privacy issues. |
Battery5
Consumption is quite high, since the app needs users to keep location services and internet connection on at all times. |
Price10
It doesn't come with any ads or in-app purchases. |
Compatibility8
It should work on work on devices running Android version 2.3 or later, making the app available to many users. |
It's a nice app but it takes a while to load and needs some improvements.
