Great app! Just one thing. Love this app! Just wish there was higher resolution pictures. That doesn't stop me from using it all the time though

Crashing The app seems good, with some great info and pics, but I can't get the 'nearby' function to work without the app encountering a connection problem and closing. There is also some problem with the distances - some buildings within a few miles if my house are displayed as being thousands of miles away, so if I filter by distance they will not appear. If these problems were solved I'd probably give it a higher rating

Good! Thanks for making this app for all the arch junkies Nearby feature - Very useful when traveling!! But there are wrong addresses / proj status / etc... might want to consider allowing users to update data*

I needed to upload pics. I had this app before but I uninstalled it. Then I re-installed it because it really bothered me that I only live steps from a very historic home and all they had was a description of it and no photos. So I re-downloaded the app and went next door and did a full walk-around photo shoot of the place and uploaded them to the site. Now I feel better! I decided to keep the app because it's actually pretty cool and there's a lot of neat buildings I want to go see that are featured in this app. I hope the pics I uploaded make more people want to come visit this building.
