Learnt a lot

We had no idea about native Americans story on this highway. The narrator is excellent. He made the whole trip very interesting. It is a straight road but you can take your time to stop, get out, take pictures. We spent three hours total. Remember, there are no restaurants. Carry some food and drinks. It was easy to use. Audio played on its own when we came to its spot. Do not drive too fast.

Overall, very nice. We learnt a lot.

Purchaser Beware

Be careful downloading this app. Great reviews, but it was a complete waste of money for me. First. It says over and over again it has to be connected to Wi-Fi to work. Your phone data plan is useless with this app. Obviously this travel route is in the middle of a National Forest where there is no Wi-Fi. I downloaded while at lunch in a restaurant thinking it would work during the whole drive. When we were just a few miles out of Lincoln it stopped working and wanted another download, but we didn’t have any connection. Almost wrecked the car playing with it and then gave up. TOTAL waste of $7

Developer Response ,

Were you able to get in touch with our 24/7 support team? They are trained to resolve issues such as the one you describe. If you can provide us with more details, we’d love to diagnose whatever glitch may have been occurring.
