Atlas Obscura is my favourite travel app. I have found so many interesting things to see and do on my travels. Being a travel blogger, this app gives me opportunities for great material.

App has alot of crash issues. Needs a "find friends" function so you can invite and see where friends have been. On top of the "been too" button a like/dislike button would also be helpful. Finally adding places on app would be extremely helpful, going to website to add them isn't user friendly.

Great app, a shame it needs a data signal which when on your travels is sometimes not there, it would be good if we could download by country to use offline.
