Works offline with geolocation

I love this app, it even works offline with GEO-location, so I don´t need to waste my data plan.

Review of the SmartGuide App

Once upon a time, in the past century, independent travellers interested in culture and the environment would consult books and travel guides to plan their itineraries. Then came the Internet, then apps, and more recently AI… The free version is user-friendly and inviting, with few ads and enough features to help you plan your visit, with its most useful aspect being the map. The sites appear on the map as small photos (based on mapy.com) so it’s easy to orient yourself. The paid version currently costs EUR 19.99 per annum (with a free 3 day trial) and also enables you to download destination guides for offline access. It also includes an AI Guide for replying to your questions and producing custom tours. Overall, the SmartGuide app is already very useful for independent travellers and has the potential for greatness if more coverage and depth is added along with interest-based search options and an easy way to detect the more sustainable experiences.
