UK Hidden Gems

Seems promising but you can’t do much without subscribing and the app throws an error when you try to subscribe…

Unfortunately, I’m unable to access the app because it states I need to register but it won’t let me create an account/register. Seems promising if this can be fixed.

I’d like to rate this app higher. I’m sure it has some great features but it won’t let me subscribe and won’t let me use it without subscribing.

Yet another app trying to sign you up for a monthly subscription. Plenty of free information online to find these so called gems.

All the adverts show tonnes of items on the map, but in the app there’s barely half the amount. There’s a senseless micro transaction system as well. If you’re going to make an app, it needs to have a USP and have value for the user. I’ll stick to Google, Tripadvisor, travel blogs etc. (all free).

I like the app and have paid for a subscriptions (not sure how long I’ll keep it but is good for inspo). The main thing missing is the ability to put your bucket list on a map. I want to plan trips so it would be good to see where the items I’ve saved are so I can choose trip locations accordingly. Some more detail on the items would also be very useful. You have a disability badge on some of your listings but there are some listings that I know to be accessible from my own experience that you have not marked. Additionally, it would be really good to see an accessibility score rather than just a yes or no. Not all disabled people are wheelchair users. Some of us may be fine to walk on uneven surfaces but are limited on how far/steep we can travel. It would be good to know at a glance if a gem was at the end of a hike or a five minute walk away from a car park.

I used the free version of the app for a week. After seeing their subscription being advertised I thought I’d try it out. From here is where everything went wrong. I received an error code 401. I attempted solving it myself by redownloading the app and messing around with a few settings. Nothing. I emailed their support team and company which has two separate emails. However I got no response or acknowledgment. So I messaged them on Instagram, to which I did get a response. Whoever I spoke too through their social media were cocky and cheeky with replies they gave. I was strung along for the most part with them making different excuses everytime. Even when I asked about getting a refund they blamed the Apple servers and told me I must be keen to use their app. I’d strongly advise people to avoid their subscription and app.

It was good when it work but for 5/6 weeks now it just comes up as error and when you message on Instagram they tell you to email and no one gets back to you so your paying for nothing when it’s not working

The app is fairly well organised and has plenty of interesting locations but that’s all you get I couldn’t justify the £30 per year subscription fee or the £3.99 (£47.88 per year) alternative they recommend. A few improvements however would make this app really useful say information on parking locations and up to date prices for these, motorcycle parking monitored/unmonitored, I don’t drive electric but if there are charging locations for the leccy guys. Length of the walks/hikes types of trail if there are any buggy or disabled friendly routes, if push bikes are allowed. Toilet availability/baby change Cafés/pubs in neighbouring villages or along the trail. You could even advertise these in the app say they pay you some sort of advertising fee then you definitely could charge less for the app. Just my two pence I’m sure there’s loads more you could do forget all that badge crap a tick sheet for places you’ve been would be helpful without the kid aesthetics. Hope you find this review helpful added my recommendations instead of just complaining about the price.

Follow on insta great great content. Great site. When I saw they had an app I loaded it straight away. Then when asked for £39.99 a year deleted it straight away. I get they say it’s a price of a coffee. We make tv shows and took all our content of off Amazon prime as people didn’t like the subscription price so moved it all onto YouTube. Now make more money than ever from adds. Maybe they should give out app for free triple their subs and get sponsors. Such a shame as all the bad stars are about the cost of the app. When they have such a great product. And like people are saying all the info is free on instagram. Good luck guys still gave you 5 stars as you guys are awesome.
