Ratings and reviews

This app is so useful. I used it for a photography trip to the Lake District and was able to save and create a collection of photo spots I planned to visit even with the free version. It could be even better if you could add spots directly from the app rather than only via the web version, but maybe this is coming? This has been so well thought through - can't wait to see how this develops going forward.

Photohound is a great resource for the travelling photographer. The spots have valuable information in them along with inspirational photos, and the curated guides give you a head start on a trip somewhere new, with loads of places to get you started. Because the spots are reviewed, the quality is high with no spammy or fake entries to get in your way.

Impossibility to zoom out a map makes the app hardly usable. Please help!
