Very helpful offline

Perfect

App

Great application !

It was handy

thanks

Very useful

The app is the best tested by me from NY maps. Good feature is combining the map with subway map and always you can find nearest station.

Nice and useful app

This is a nice and useful app for a traveller and it works in offline mode as well. Apps by this company helped me a lot in Venice, London and New York.

Very best!!! Superb!!! Highly recommended!

I did not expect it to be so useful! It has everything you need, all offline, without ads. It even helps to find subway station nearby you or your designated spot. All tourists spots, all restaurants & bars, even ATM - you can find easily! The only thing it doesnt do is drawing routes. But you could easily understand yourself by looking at map.

Great app especially for a first time visitor

We would have never found a lot of what we wanted to see if not for this app. We were able to keep track of where we were and see how far away our next interest point was. It was super informative and so glad we found it before our visit so we could plan our route out. Great app!

Personal Assistant

Simply put this app acts as a personal assistant for you. Reviews; locations; points of interest; things to do or see; and of course Street Topography. Dont remember if I paid for this app; but absolutely I wouldnt hesitate to do so!

Its Just OK

This is a huge download, which prompted me to get it. I was curious about the content. Well, its just a collection of Wikipedia material. Perhaps the nicest feature is the subway maps but there are other ways to get this, too. Ive used my iPad in other cities without a program such as New York 2Go and survived. However, I have AAA membership and use a lot of their online content. And many cities have tourism web sites which offer PDF maps and guides which you can download and read on iBooks. So if this is the only travel information youll access on your iPad for your next trip to the Big Apple, then its a good start. It hits all the popular places and the info is extensive, assuming you trust Wikipedia. The user interface is pleasant and very easy to use.

Great app

This app really enhanced my trip to New York and made it much more enjoyable.

First trip to NY

This was one of the best apps that Ive used so far and makes my Top 10 iPad apps list. Being a first time visitor to NY this app helped me to decide which sights to see, plot my trip on a map thats available offline and even see which metro to use to get to the sights. Ill be purchasing the other City2Go apps too as I visit these cities!

Better off asking strangers for directions

More of a educational collection of tourist attractions with history lessons. I dont need that. I need a GPS based app to direct me to locations I choose. This thing couldnt even find my hotel with the complete address. Dont you think hotels would be part of the app database? Not impressed

My only reason having surviving in NYC

Great app!

Good app, room to improve

One improvement would be more zoom support on the subway map, I want to zoom in more. Flicking on the map is kinda jerky, doesnt work as well as the google maps app with iOS. Only used app for a few hrs as of now.

Good place to find info!

I have used this app in planning, visiting, & after my visits to NY & find it easy to refer to & use.

Great app

Always in use when I visit NYC , accurate informative and no data plan required .. Combined with the gps means I head off in the wrong direction very seldom now.

Good, easy

Its got what you need with some background and history. Still cheaper than buying a map!

Handy

Its nice to have (almost) everything gathered in one app.

Horrible restaurant coverage

The restaurants listed on the map are laughable. Maybe has .05% of the restaurants that there are. And Im not saying it misses little places only. For example, 46th street between eight and ninth is called restaurant row. How many restaurants are listed in the app? Zero. No thanks. Based on the coverage of ny, a city I know, I would never trust this companys apps for somewhere else.

Great trip planning

Found this app very helpful planning put daily activity in the city. I could mark places we wanted to see and go by color code. This made daily planning very easy!
