Ratings and reviews

If you are reading this and you are currently at the coliseum, then I wish you the best of luck. Once you download the app, you still have to download maps, and the app either crashed or would say I was offline, even though I was actively using other apps... 30 minutes later (and 4 app crashes) I finally downloaded the audio only to discover that the audio also didn't play unless I was physically in the area (something that was harder to do since I was further along in the tour)

The button to change languages on Android needs to be bigger/lower down, as it's REALLY difficult to access. Other than that, the app is excellent... you don't need to start in location one (so enter the site from the quiet entry points) and it automatically narrates what you're seeing... really well done

The app itself is okay, but I'm leaving a low rating because the English narrator's pronunciation is appalling. You're supposed to be able to walk around the Colosseum just listening to the audio, but the truth is, you have to constantly check your phone to read the text because the narrator consistently mispronounces words. I'm sure that, being one of the most visited monuments in the world, the Colosseum can afford a native English-speaking narrator.
