Ratings and Reviews
Very good
Helps me a lot at getty
Not useful for me
I didn’t end up using this at all. I assumed it would have an interactive map that could guide me to particular artists or types of art. It is really just designed for people who want to take tours or want to put in the audio codes of a particular piece they have already found. The paper map at the information desk was much more useful.
Next to useless
You have to manually enter the number of every single piece of art, no option to just play the gallery you are in.
You also can’t search for specific works, figure out where you are or where you are trying to go, and the app never seemed to know where I was even with precise location enabled.
For the best funded museum in the country it’s a really useless waste of battery life
