Fascinating Really enjoy the level of detail in the destination descriptions. Great variety of tour themes. Can't wait for more cities!

Cool app My grandparents live in downtown Vancouver. When I saw this, I went out for hours finding out about the history of Vancouver. I would recommend this to anyone who is going to Vancouver on a trip. (PS Gastown is my favorite)

Time to go on an adventure! I love apps that get me out exploring. Can't wait to do the tours and see the stops both in person and in the past :)

Very cool app, but text descriptions of photos are cut off. When in landscape mode the text is briefly viewable but the photo is refreshed, so it's basically not viewable. Not being able to zoom photos is a big handicap. Search function would be good. Photos disappear in landscape mode. Apps seems buggy in some of its basic viewing functions.

I didn't understand 8t.I thought I could take a pic anywhere in the city for a historic pic

Mildly interesting for all of about 45 seconds. 👌🏻 It would be a lot better if there was even just a slider you could move left and right to expose the past and present image. Also, the blue bridge in Victoria is not even recent anymore. We have an absurdly expensive new bridge that Helps bought. It kind of defeats the purpose of a past & present photo...

App could use the option to use the slider/fader in landscape full screen mode, so you can actually see the photos better, and it would be more immersive. Would be good to also do AR with the camera to slide/fade over the camera view to allow self exploration not just photos
