Visit Seoul – Seoul travels App Reviews

Just gave it an extra star because of content (a lot.. Maybe too much though..) but I really dont think its worth the 112mb d/l.

If you are online (there is plenty of wifi all around seoul even inside subway trains) this app can even calculate routes for bus/metro. Would be nice of the map can be made for offline use. See also their website their map is great.

Lots of useful info and functions in the app. The taxi meter assured me that I wasn’t getting gypped.

Great app for tour info in Seoul!

This app well organized the needs of tourists. It is a must have app for both foreigners and koreans because it provides various restaurant information and date courses that people could have overlooked.

As of October 2013, the google maps English POI database for Seoul is lacking. iTour Seoul helps fill that gap with lots of listings for restaurants and attractions. The feature that lists attractions near your current location is especially nice. The built-in maps feature is useful but nowhere near as good as google maps (they would be better off putting their own POI layer on top of Google or Apple maps). One warning: there are some errors in the database. One restaurants address was close but not exactly correct. And the address for gwanghwamun square was correct but the mapping function directed me to Seoul city hall plaza instead.

I liked the location-based searches that the app offered, so I downloaded it to help me find restaurants whenever I was in a neighborhood and without a specific place in mind. I used it twice. The first time, the restaurant I decided to visit was no longer in business. The second time, the address and map location were incorrect. Not only does the information need updating, it needs enhancing -- there are no hours listed for the restaurants (no even "lunch only" or the like) and there needs to be more details (e.g., 2nd floor of Hanhwa Building).
