Ratings and reviews

The Prado Guide might be the most useless thing I've ever paid for on the Play Store. For a whopping 5 bucks, it literally only unlocks slightly different written descriptions from what you see at the museum for a select handful of works, and doesn't include an audio guide or even a map. With so many other much better free museum guides out there (such as the Rijksmuseum app, which is absolutely world class), this one is a total waste of money.

A very nice app but I have to give a poor rating because of my bad experience buying the premium version. Was enjoying the beautiful artworks at Prado Museum and felt that the useful info provided by this app could complete the visit. Paid for the premium version through Google Play, but still no premium access. Sought help through emails to the app support and received zero response after close to 2 weeks despite reminders. I am now even blocked from their website. Thus this rating.

I ve never been in this Museum I d love to go to Spain, if u read about artworks by this app, u really enjoying... although if you want to zoom on artworks u have to download the picture. But the quality of pictures are really good.
