Keeps crashing

DebRInSD on

United States

Unable to use the app at all, every time it found my location within Hearst Castle…it would crash

DURING/POST-COVID July 2022

Best christmas cd EVER! on

United States

You can no longer freely explore the grounds of Hearst Castle so the app is pointless. You must remain with your tour group so you’re only seeing things that are included in your tour. Don’t waste your time, data, storage or battery usage as you’ll just delete it after realizing you can’t use it. lol good luck!

Ignore the usual complainers

mimi_mermaid on

United States

This app is terrific, like almost everyone on here has expressed. For those complaining about poor reception, etc...it's not the app, its your phone, carrier, and lack of phone settings knowledge. I can tell by the complaints that it's one or all the reasons above. The app has almost 5 stars for a reason, its easy to use, and definitely a must for receiving their latest travel and ticket information. Ignore the handful of people that shouldn't have phones if they don't know how to use them.

Unusable

timdavis130 on

United States

This app is basically unusable. At the Hearst Castle itself, cell reception is kind of poor and there are too many people trying to access the Internet at once, so it’s hard to download anything. Every time I open the app it goes to “Checking for New Content” and eventually gets an error with the only option on the error message being to “Try Again”. How about an option to not check for new content all the time or at least function with original content when new content download fails?

Easy to use and beautiful

Mr. Hearst had such vision I often wonder if he had lived longer for another 10years what he had in mind as he has already done so much ! I don’t judge people as it’s not my place to can only see what they did and must say he had a deep love of many animals and so amazing how those well he got along with the animals his guests were terrified of them and he was so at ease with them don’t know if they mention that they should as he used the land for them oh do hope they have people milking the cows twice a day too.The gardens are lovely and same for fruit trees hope fruit is used wisely. He was a once in lifetime person building that castle won’t see one like it ever again! Thank You for this app am handicapped now can’t visit anymore now is only way brings so many happy memories back. Toini Osmus Moore
