Ratings and reviews

This app is generally bad. Don't rely on it! It feels so unfinished. There are so many details missing from the map. I couldn't even find the carousel. The restaurant section is total trash. I tried using it to locate a spot to get ice cream, gave up, walked inside the main cafeteria and found a dippin dots counter that was not on the map at all.

We went to the zoo today and this app made it so easy to navigate and find what exhibits we were looking for with ease. I love the ability to toggle between bathrooms, dining, and animal enclosures on the map. The only reason I'm giving this app 4/5 stars is because as a member, I wish I could log into the app for easy access to my QR code for getting on rides or making purchases. A member login would really make this perfect.

This app has a fatal flaw. I tried to walk to the rental place but it maps you to the African one instead of the main one, even when you manually tap the correct rental location. I developed several blisters on my feet because I, a disabled person, was forced to walk the entire length of the zoo. Do better.
