Borderline Scam

I fell for the augmented reality hype and wanted to see it first hand. I thought it was worth the small price to have one of the first augmented reality apps. Unfortunately the app cant seem to figure out where I am located (yes, I have the 3Gs and Yelps augmented reality works fine -- and is free). Or perhaps it is just that the bus information is so grossly inadequate that it cant find the stop outside of my house. Either way, it puts a damper on the augmented reality thrill.

You also dont get all the functionality you might think. Everything you click on prompts you to buy another app to activate the additional functionality! You are basically paying them to sell you their other apps. Very misleading.

And as other reviewers have pointed out, the bus route information is inadequate. It includes less than two dozen bus routes. For a complete London Bus app check out the one by Malcolm Barclay.

Overall this app is a waste of time and borderline scam (yeah, yeah I am sure they are covered in the fine print). Its not even worth the cheap thrill of the augmented reality -- assuming you can get it to work.
