Bonaventure Cemetery Tours for Negative User Reviews

✓ Poorly executed appThis app is very poorly designed. For example, there is a map with numbers, but no key, and the list of plots is not numbered. The directions are confusing. You cannot change the order of the tour. A complete waste of time and money. Don’t bother..Archise SVersion: 8.0.156

✓ Not so greatThis app was incredibly frustrating. It assumes you are beginning near the museum at the entrance. If you aren’t you end up backtracking to find the first site. The directions aren’t always clear, narration begins when you aren’t yet at the site. If the app could find my location, why can’t it find where I am when I’m first starting and begin my tour from my location? The narration that we managed to get in the right place was very informative. Definitely cheaper than paying for a tour, and the money goes to help keep the cemetery up but, the app needs some refinement to be really useful..30nicknamesVersion: 7.3.96

✓ DOES NOT WORKThis app did not work for me or for other people that were there..BeeeethiiiieeeeVersion: 9.0.52

✓ DisappointedCould be so much better and useful by simply numbering the names on the list to correspond with the points on the map so you can figure out where you are!.MahoncarVersion: 7.3.96

✓ Don’t waste your time or moneyWould give zero stars. Purchased and downloaded the app on my iPhone 15 pro with IOS 17.3 while enroute to Bonaventure cemetery. Opened the app and immediately directed to download the tour media. I could not complete the download. Error message said media could not be downloaded, try again. Tried again and again without success. The app contained nothing without this download. The website link on the app was not useful and directs you to the app! Totally useless. At least I made a donation to the Bonaventure Historical society, but I was purchasing a product that did not function as expected..BladermomRNVersion: 9.0.52

✓ Very confusing. Could not followThis app did not work very well in terms of guiding you around the cemetery. The map included in the app did not list the Lot or Section letters so, unless you could figure out which street you were on (and there were few street signs), it was difficult to follow. Furthermore, the audio was interesting but they should have put a corresponding site number next to the audio so you could find it. A paper map would probably have worked better. We didn't do a tour or stop at the visitor center because it was raining..TkcpetersVersion: 7.3.23

✓ Needs improvementsThis app had some good information but the gps location on it wasn’t very good. We had info playing for a gravesite several yards away. It got rather confusing. I think we would have preferred something that gave better verbal directions in the narration. Not really worth the money; and because the cemetery itself is a bit confusing, I would recommend getting a real tour if you are looking for something other than just a nice walk and photos..SherlitVersion: 7.3.96

✓ Poorly designed app. Doesn’t work well.I hope some of this info finds its way to the developers to fix the App, because we love Bonaventure and have been there 3 times and are looking forward to a better tour next time… The info presented in the app is just OK. Informative but Not presented in a way that keeps you interested. Instead of 20 different monotone script readers, get someone with some excitement who loves to tell you about what you’re seeing. But the biggest problems are with the App itself. The navigation to each grave site and between sites is very poor. Transitions are awful. Navigation tries to use location sensing to pop up an audio when you are near something but it doesn’t work 90% of the time. Finding your way between sites leaves you wandering and wondering. The narrative describes how to get there but the narratives can only get you there if you’ve found the site immediately preceding and unlike the gravesite audios, the site transition narratives can’t be found on their own. They should include these transitions in the list of audio narratives of the gravesites which are easily accessible. Navigation using the JPEG of their map is about the only way to really find your way around, and I would never have made it otherwise, but with the technology available today like any Apple/Google/Waze location sensing mapping software with walking directions, I expected a lot more from this. Lastly, the first audio narration with highway directions of how to get to Bonaventure Cemetery is is on EVERY page. Hit the wrong audio button at any gravesite or route and you’re back to the beginning … reset… and again listening to the directions to the Cemetery! Then you have to find your place in the tour again. The App will leave you frustrated..Stop with the Ads alreadyVersion: 9.0.52

✓ Worst App to Navigate!If you’re ever able to navigate to a plot with a narrative, then the app is great. However, that proved practically impossible. The map is not accurate with road locations, or even road names. The plots are designated in alphabetical sections and then by number in the section, but there are no sections referenced on the map. The auto notification is only correct about half the time, I.e. sometimes it pops up when you’re close but not always. The map does not show your GPS location as you move, so you’re not able to use that to narrow down your location either..Cai2i2ieVersion: 1.1

✓ Great Cemetery, Horrible AppWith robust technology available today the interactive map. Should have been so much more.. The map provided you with your location, but when you clicked on what you were near, nothing happened. If someone had taken the time to have your location overlaid it would have been great. With an overlaid map of the graveyard, things would have been much better, and easier to find..Mebb555Version: 1.1

✓ Really confusingIt was really hard to follow the directions for this tour. We couldn’t find anything past step 3. Just pay a little extra for a guided tour by a physical tour guide and avoid this hassle..SophrogVersion: 1.1

✓ Needs improvementI used this today with my boyfriend at the Cemetery and while the information was neat, the app needs some fixes. 1. Update the text so the term “northern aggression” is removed in the description of the enslaved valet of one of the people buried in the cemetery. 2. Have a full, zoomable map in the app that people can use to find their way around. My boyfriend and I got lost through following the app’s directions. 3. Update the grave lot pictures so they reflect how they look now. We almost missed more than one grave of note because the graves were a lot cleaner in the app’s older pictures 4. Fix it so the app doesn’t completely drain a phone battery in less than 3 hours. Luckily I had my charger, but it was the only possible app that could’ve caused this issue.SakuraUsagiVersion: 9.0.27

✓ Wasted my money!I bought this app as I was about to go into the cemetery and the app was not functional except to direct to their website. COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY. DO NOT DOWNLOAD!.JenXer37Version: 9.0.52

✓ Didn’t workPaid $6 and it didn’t work. The tour wouldn’t download within the app, across three different networks. Something wrong with app..Miesian123Version: 9.0.52

✓ BoringFacts about the graves are pretty dull, they have a tour service there that seemed more interactive.KatieloftisVersion: 8.0.188
