Used the app to visit the museum. The near me feature is really handy Great you can download it and browse again the operas offline or at home.

Guggenheim Mobile App The app is very rich in multimedia content. Its quite a large download, so be sure to download over a wi-fi connection for best results. The map function doesn't work correctly (using a Nexus 5 Google android here). The permanent collection requires a separate download. Compared to other museum apps, its available for both Android and iPhone, which is a plus. They may have been better served if they created a non-native web based app solution, but still the Guggenheim was long over due for a mobile app.
★★★★★
Very nice. As others have noted, the add-on downloads required by the app are pretty huge, but they're the maps, exhibition-specific guides, audio commentary and so on that need to change over time. (There is also a "manage my guides" option that's very transparent about what the content is and lets you delete whatever you want.) All in all it's really very slick and comprehensive; works nicely on my Moto x and added some value for our visit. That said... I'm still knocking off a star because the app isn't compatible with my wife's Nexus 7. Really?? Just like that other guy's Galaxy tab. Oh well.
★★☆☆☆
Crashes on s3 and s5 Don't waste your time or data plan. It crashes. The museum is cool. The app is not.

Needs work The museum's ticket taker gave me a clue that this app has issues. It required NUMEROUS updates, and I had just downloaded it. I'm looking at the art and trying to manage all of the downloads, made more difficult by the spotty connection at the museum. Once it was finally ready I was nearly done with the art...and my battery was pretty much dead. I don't understand why the original download needed so much updating. The little that I DID use the app, I was impressed.
★★☆☆☆
Too many downloads It's absurd how many additional downloads this app demands once you install it. I'm not even going to finish the installation.
★★☆☆☆
Unfortunately no good Would like to know how a major museum sponsored by a major corporate business cannot have a stable app? It's downloads and I can access the menus but it always force quits after a selection. Epic fail and hope it will improve.
