Pros and cons of Recce - London app for iPhone and iPad

Recce - London app good for

This is a magnificent app! I just downloaded it, and spent an hour visiting London as if I were there! Made me want to jump on the Eurostar! Congratulations on the good work!
Really only useful when in London. But the presentation is phantastic. The visuals are gorgeous and very fluently animated. The SimCity-esque style is very charming, compared to the photo-realistic efforts from Apple and Nokia. Actually a more reduced image has less clutter and makes the important things more readily visible. Im looking forward to actually use this app, but playing around with is worth the download already
This map app is so totally amazing! Photo reality navigation at London including local transport. Its a bit like having a real time satellite uplink ...
Really nice app with an great overview of London. The animation are cute and its easy to find his way through the city. With an wifi overview its perfect for tourist and the bike hire location are also important. Good work
Nice App, pretty helpful for the inner City but I missed some attractions and the outer districts.
This app lets you plan your journey trough London right at your fingertip! The map is made with real passion. If I could make a wish, please include Zone 3 on the map! Thank you.

Some bad moments

Sind the last update the App crashes instead of open. Before that I would rate 5 stars, now the app dont work.
Never have tried anything like this. You can play around for hours exploring London. I love that it works offline, this will be killer for the tube.
Recce is a jaw-dropping way to explore London. You may think youve seen 3D maps but you havent seen anything like this. You can search for things cafes or restaurants, save the locations you care about and then Recce will show a route to get there (Itll even update you on a Tube lines status or tell you if theres a nearby Boris Bike available!). This is a must-have app for the Olympics!
I really like how alive the city feels with the traffic and the Eye. Cant wait to see what they do with this!
I love twisting the map to view all sides of the buildings. Very quick rendering and smooth. Can you do Vestal New York now, please. I know it is not as exciting. The map control are very intuitive and fun to use. It truly is a new way to explore a city.
Its incredible that all this detail can run so smoothly on an offline iPod Touch. Hope that steeples and domes are added soon to complete the illusion.
