I ve downloaded my share of museum apps since I frequent many museums This is by far the best museum app I ve downloaded The best feature is indoor maps Enable WiFi you may need to connect to their WiFi and Bluetooth and the app will show you your location within the museum It will also guide you turn by turn to get to a specific exhibit area to a museum This is especially useful since the museum is cavernous and it s easy to get lost The tidbits of information about exhibits is neat too Love this app                     Best museum app bchin.herein

I got this app so I could at all costs STAY AWAY FROM THE BLUE WHALE MODEL Whales scare me so badly and I needed to know how I could stay as far away as possible from it But my family wanted to see it so I walked with them up to where the exhibit starts so I could not see it This app helped me know how close I was getting to it since it tracked my steps real time It was spot on accurate to my location in the museum I m rating it five stars since it saved me from having a heart attack in public Also the other stuff in the app works great                     Saved me from fear Cool peaplo

The newer version is not helpful I couldn t not use it to locate where I was or where things were in order to navigate the museum The paper map was better     Disappointed Racinggrl

This application is unique and it works different from other museum apps I have used Starting off the app asks you to select interests exhibits and areas in the museum you would like After that the app customizes your selection into a feed you can use to navigate Similar to News applications you can scroll up and down the feed and select content that you would most likely enjoy The content will most likely be a exhibit that would interest you such as Outer Space or the T Rex or big creatures The content presented is light on information but it works better as a bite size multimedia experience which in essence what many museum exhibits are You get a brief description of the subject facts about the subject images of the subject video clip presenting something related to the subject and maybe a multiple choice question related to the subject Content can also be shared with others and saved as a favorite The museum content feed can also be used to get information on other areas such as the gift shop bathrooms and dining areas The app works well as a source of learning from home as well as a guide when inside the museum When inside the historic museum the app can be used as a guide working off the many beacons installed so you can find a specific location or pinpoint where you are The app can also be used to purchase tickets making your experience that much easier From interactive content to sharp visuals easy menu design and resources included that will help manage your visit the Explorer American Museum of Natural History is well worth a download for current and potential visitors                 Explorer The American Museum of Natural History D.

Filled in all the information and the confirm payment button does nothing Not really helpful if you want to get tickets ahead of time to skip the line Seems like a major mods for the app     Payments not working Duster_six

I ve tried to purchase tickets trough the app the app said error please try again After trying it for second time I ve gave up however my card was charged for both purchases     Unable to purchase tickets yet was charged the card Skeeve

This is hands down the most sensitive and effective location based museum app I ve used Works amazingly well on an iPhone 7 Down to the foot Find exhibits bathrooms and exits Link your tickets so they display electronically etc Get it                     Best iPhone 7 location services app Very_Annoyed

I am very pleasantly surprised with this app It is informative about the museum and caters to your specific interests Unlike most of the apps I ve seen for other museums the app is aesthetically pleasing and doesn t look out of date You have a strong 5 stars from me                     A great interactive app Argan0n

Easy to navigate but is on frozen mode since the visited the food page     This app got hung on the food page Sammy8286

This is what a museum app should be like                     Yes Serg.-

This app is great It s nice that it shows you nearby things that you might be interested in The ability to get step by step directions to anywhere you want really came in handy too                     Really useful LPodyssey07

That s all         Needs Apple Pay support BeatHappy

Plusses great facts helpful ticket system good directions when functional Negatives takes a while to load location avatour doesn t work they should add a feature that makes a to do list for your visit based on location budget schedule abilities interests and likes                 Ok clunky with possible improvements Creepy Monkey Boy

Also the storing of locations that you want to find does not match up with the actual map Finally just turned it off     Horrible can t find your location so gives bad directions Sonofagunk

Could not find any basic info on AMNH just cutesy suggestions for what to look for No hours no ticket prices no list of current exhibitions     Total waste Mad oak

If you are planning on visiting the American Museum of Natural History you should download this app Point by point navigation to all your favorite exhibits even the bathrooms and cafes Interactive features for the kids and suggestions if you have no idea where to start If you ve been here before you know this museum can be daunting so explorer is like a little guidebook right on your phone Ps You can also buy tickets on the app and bypass those long tourist lines it s a win win                     A Must Download That Guy that Reviews Apps

With images fun facts this app exceeded my expectations                     Fun useful NearlySun

We used this app during our visit and it was awesome It is user friendly and was very helpful Every museum needs to have this It made our visit memorable                     Time Saver bally63

This app is utterly useless     Useless Vedel78

By far my most favorite feature of this app is the indoor turn by turn directions It makes an otherwise stressful visit trying to figure out how to get where you want to go a very enjoyable one                     I wish every museum had an app like this revNickname41

The app is useful but back it up with a physical map of the museum if you re taking kids and trying to avoid emptying your wallet at every gift shop The app gives you directions to the exhibits But in structured steps so you can t see your whole route and only later realize you went the longest most foolish way possible structured to make you pass through every gift shop in the museum unnecessarily Also app relies on Bluetooth Which doesn t work at all in the exhibits you have no service in like the ocean hall             The long way through the gift shops LeFeeVerte

Map and directions worked perfectly for us Liked the extra info and general overview of exhibits Helped us choose where to go It would be nice if we could see planetarium and other showtimes in it                     Worked well Museum Goer

Missing some basic things The map makes me angry     Ridiculous Limeira_Brasil

Would be nice to have a search function and the latest exhibits             OK but missing some basics JZNYC

The AMNH Explorer app is a joke The location service within the museum does not work correctly In addition the information that the app has regarding the key exhibits in the museum is so basic limited 1 or 2 small paragraphs that you are left wondering why they even bother to promote the app If looks feels like the museum just wanted to say they have an app It provides little to no educational value     App is a joke DW59

I used this when I went to the museum Very good and accurate about your location but there were a few turns that sent us on the wrong direction meaning we sort of went in a circle but we did finally make it                 Helpful but aestheticshoe

I took my family to the museum and used this app to get around It works both as a preview of the exhibits as well as to give you more info while you re there The navigation and the experience is excellent and very easy to use Love it                     Excellent way finding An_acrostic

If I could give zero stars My wife and I both got errors that we weren t connected to the Internet then the infinite spinning wheel We were and obviously still are since I downloaded it 5 minutes ago And deleted it 4 minutes ago Their website is still pushing a non functional app What a shame since I plan to visit the museum this week     Doesn t work Duane Sutter

Tried it today it never even opened loaded Just gave me a message that I was offline and stayed stuck on an opening graphic I tried on data network and the museum s wifi     Never worked TheFishPen

It does not work     Does not work waste time sky ZZZ

From the moment I attempt to launch the app it notifies me that I have no internet connection which is impossible I am home where I have both cell service and wifi Does this app only work when your IN the museum It s super easy to just get a physical map at the museum and not waste cell battery but wanted to check it out TNHM being my favorite museum What is happening in my situation Answers invited     What app Liziebot

It keeps telling me i m offline when i m not Won t even start just gets stuck at loading screen too bad really wanted to use this     App thinks i m offline T1coLoco

Connect to the network but Cannot be located Worthless to find your way around I guess that the museum just doesn t care Been going on for a long time 29 per person to come here     App is terrible LabradorReba

I was looking forward to using this app for the highlights tour Regretfully the wifi signal inside the museum is so weak that the app wouldn t load     Useless Mutyi

I m such a fan of the museum and it s high quality exhibits so it s so disappointing that this app is broken AMNH please fix it     Great idea If it worked bernachonyum

AMNH has great apps associated with their exhibits I wish they would pay as much attention to this one As mentioned it can never locate users therefore not helpful in finding ones way around Exhibits listed to build a tour are not kept up to date If you are not sure if to are going to see an IMAX film or a Planetarium you can never find directions using program title Love the museum it deserves a far better App     Disappointing ubiquenyc

Add me to the list of those who found this app useless once inside the museum Not once was it able to find my location give directions from where I actually was It was far easier to use the paper map and to ask security guards docents for directions Come to think of it the signage in the museum itself is not particularly useful maybe whoever was responsible for signs had a hand in this app     Great idea if it worked Alphie G

App was a great way to plan the trip but was useless for navigating I connected to AMNH wifi but it never located me Instead navigated all day with a great paper map             Navigation feature not functionsl 4545Jack

and I have always made sure that i m connected to the AMNH public wifi But I still can never get a location fix A shame since AMNH is one of those museums that is really hard to find your way around in when you re trying to get to a specific place Still the app is a good reference and at least had good maps and exhibit information             Good reference can t get location to work darkclan

means terribly broken experience I used this app 4 years ago and found it amazing It helped to get the most of short 3 hour visit to the museum Today i downloaded the app even before i got the tickets The app is a fail The locator doesnt work After i spent like 30 minutes trying to understand where am i i realized the maps are not actual The visit to the museum was a huge disappointment as i couldnt find anything but tigers and elephats in 1 5 hours Thats how misuse of technology can kill other not seemingly related areas Do not rely on this app unless fixed get a paper guide     Terribly broken app Dccharacter

Not once was this app able to locate where I was in the museum so it s directions always start at the front doors which is of no use to me when I m lost in the museum         Disappointing Sessel22
