Recent reviews

It should be advertised way more often to annoy people even more. I will therefore never use it, defeating its own purpose. @Hillie (below reponse): No, I won't, since you already made yourself irrelevant

I checked this app as a app developer 😊 and i see that it works fluently in devices, also is fully optimize with all the functionality that a traveller needs. I will recommend everyone who visit Netherlands to use this app as a guide.
