Customer Reviews

Not worth it (2 stars)
We visited the zoo last weekend with three preschoolers and a baby. The kids were asking to see animals regardless of any planned route, so I downloaded this at the zoo to help us find their requests quickly.

It took several minutes to download. Once I opened it, it took a long time to load all the info while switching between features. The main feature we were interested in, the map, wasn't helpful since it is very general and does

Not Worth It (2 stars)
This app was not worthwhile, since it offered no improvement on the regular web site, and was in fact inferior to the web site. The map was less detailed than the map on the web site (had the same pictures but no text). The app had no information about food. Also, every time I clicked on parking information, the app crashed. I was hoping the app might offer some real-time interactions like letting me know which parking lots were currentl

Needs work (3 stars)
For a map it seems to be good, but I bought it for the animal cams. So far have yet to see anything other than the pandas, and the app tends to kick me out every 4 to 7 min regardless of what I'm doing. Getting really tired of reading some cool animal facts to my kids and having to suddenly reopen and find where I was continually. Will rate higher when they fix those two problems.
