Won’t allow for pictures to be taken without audio stopping. Had some good info. It wasn’t real expensive so it was okay
Worthless

This is worthless. I was not able to get this to work for the entire 4 hours that I was in Qaqortoq.
Much better than just walking around, kept me entertained

This walking app took me around the town to the sites of particular interest with stories. The walking pace was at my own pace and the app could tell when I was approaching the site. I liked that the app would keep me entertained on the way next to the site so I wouldn’t be standing at the site listening to a long narration. There’s a map in the app and I could switch to either the Apple or google map function. I did get lost a few times but that’s on me. The app did stop a few times and I had to start it again but it was good about starting at my location. Using the app was so much better than just going off on my own as I learned about the people and the monuments.

The gps is not working well. We could not find the spot listed. A little disappointed in such a small place constantly needs to change rout.
Not my cup of tea!

I’ve rated this tour at 3-stars. In the tour’s favor, the cost was very modest. The descriptions were accurate and reasonably short. But I found the tour barely possible to follow, location wise. “Turning right, going uphill and looking for a small road on the left” was made so much more difficult without any reference distance. Am I looking for a small road in 20 meters, 120 meters or what? I had difficulty getting the site to step back to the previous location or start again. The site should have included a conventional map.
Good value walking tour

Great for a remote area like Greenland! Pre-downloaded it and used it without any wifi or mobile data. Covered all the main highlights of the area. Was on a cruise and very happy we used this app instead of paying big $$$ for ship's walking tour.
I could not,...

I could not, unfortunately, download the tour. Internet was very spotty. Perhaps connectivity will improve over time.
