Review

Not too bad. Helpful for finding stuff like Starbucks and barnes and noble etc.

Hasnt worked since iOS 5/4S!

Got an iPhone 4S with iOS 5 and that broke the app. Just opens, sits at the splash screen, then closes. Have uninstalled/reinstalled. Useless now!

Whaaa? How does this have such a low rating. It practically does everything and I havent found any problems with it(:

Not the easiest to use

Pretty useless if one doesnt know zip code or mall name. Would expect to be able to access database from map with pins. For example, planning a trip down i95 and planning on a mall break from driving. No dice without researching mall names and or zips through other source such as google. Might as well just use google for whole shebang and get to a malls own website Also, mall address is buried behind a very tiny "I" icon in upper right. Even once found, no zip code and no phone number. Has button "call mall" but hides phone number. IPod touch, iPad users out of luck. Also, one just needing number for emergency but no need to call pronto. Clearly not a well-thought-out application. 10 March 2012

No maps work

Version 4.0 gives an internal server error. No maps, deals or anything loads. Only thing that works is the Google maps.

What happened????

Since installing the update, where did I park no longer works. Help!

Waste of time

Cant download maps of malls that show on the website, so must be broken. Used to work.

Nice idea Poor execution.

Great idea but maps are not easy to use and I found very inaccurate.

R&D scientist

Great Map for shopping.

Super Great

Dont understand how you cant love this app. Its amazing!!!! I wont go shopping without it! Love!!!!

Stupid App

Am sitting in the parking lot of a mall, trying to find out the location of a store to save walking all over looking for it. The app doesnt recognize where I am ( one if the biggest malls in St. Louis) so I cant find the store. Useless!!!

Doesnt work

Just updated and now the app doesnt open.

Store locations not up-to-date!!!!

Not up to dated store data/ locations In certain dynamic locations in north and south CA as tested while traveling Within CA. Even though the map ideas is great for certain large complex structures that is hard to find. Maybe the paid version is more updated. Map is free from any mall ;)

Fastball

Its a JOKE!! The BIGGEST WASTE OF MY TIME!!

Nice and nifty!

Good to just have at hand and I LOVE the ease of finding a restroom!

Summer

Every womans dream!

Nice try but fails miserably

Tried app today. One large mall near me was missing most stores and some it did show have been gone as long as two years. Another large mall is shown 10 to 15 miles from its actual location. It too shows stores long gone plus its missing many others. Am deleting the app. Instead, I can use Apples map app to locate malls then use Google to find that malls web site for an accurate mall map.

Always hangs

For all I know this is a great app. But I cant get to that greatness because it always hangs on launch. The hang appears to be in an attempt to contact the ad server, since the entire front screen UI draws, except for the ad at the bottom which remains blank. I will just note that, even assuming they fix their ad server, this suggests an organization that does not know how to write decent iOS apps. Apple have been telling developers for years to put network operations on separate threads, not the main UI thread, both to improve performance and to prevent precisely what we see here --- the app hanging when there is a network problem. There are other mall map apps which work substantially better. Id recommend Mall Maps Mobile which launches fast, DOESNT HANG, and, while the UI is far from perfect, its adequate.

Do you ever update info?

Im looking at the map for my local mall (Ventura CA) and stores that are long-gone are still listed. Get with it!!

So much wasted potential

This app needs one major feature: the ability to only show your favorite stores. The whold point of an individual app is that it can be personalized, and yet these developers insist on showing every single store in a mall on a tiny little screen. Yes, theres a search function, but then youre left standing there looking like an idiot as the whole process takes longer than walking up to a Mall Directory and just finding the store you want to go to next. Only show the favorites, and then its obvious which store to go to next based on location/proximity--a feature that is impossible with Mall Directories. These developers are not making the most of the technology available to them, and its disappointing to see, as this app could be a real time-saver, but ultimately, its just so-so.
