Pros and cons of Buildings app for iPhone and iPad
Buildings app good for
The perfect tool for achitects. A fine app for those who likes to know about Buildings contruction trends and news. I recomend it!
Quite beautiful and well balanced layout design. I love it.
BUT, the Evernote connector doesnt work. Itll definitely be failed if I try to post an article to the Evernote with correct username and password pair. Always show "Login Error" when I push Login button immediately. It seems never tried to connect the Evernote actually.
Simply wonderful!!! The new wiki just for architecture!!! I hope all lovers wonna work on it!
Some bad moments
I think its just about time to optimize this app for the four inch display. Please do it already.
great idea and use, but needs more Buildings per city. Then it would be great!
Cool app, visited some amazing architecture around me. Recommended.
Bogus! Why do you have to "register" just as soon as the app pops up? I deleted this app immediately!!
U should allow submissions social network style to round out data.
I noticed on your website that you can submit Buildings. However this is not available for the app. Unless you live in LA or NYC and want to see a three or four Buildings, this is not worth your time. There is potential for the app tho. If users could submit Buildings from their phone (from current location and maybe with a photo) it would greatly increase the usefulness of this app. As it is now, its pretty much useless.
