Ratings and reviews

Well arranged,you may search by site, markers, buildings, etc. Or, you can open the map and see what's near you. For historical markers, it contains the full text of the marker, date erected, and specific location. The app can read the text of the historical marker to you while you're driving. Just tap the speaker icon. If you love history and are driving through Texas, you need this app!

This would be a neat app if the texas historical commission cared just a little bit. Their customer service sucks. Typical workers just drawing the check. They can't get this app right. I don't understand it. They just don't care. They should just scrap the whole app. Because they don't care.

This will not run on my Android 10 phone. Immediately after running it, it closes.
