The Map to New York City. VanDam`s NYC StreetSmart is the first map in a series of immersive 4D mApps to New York which lets users fly through the city and become part of the ...
In addition to being fun to use there is an overall clarity to the graphic design Its concise and easy to digest on the fly Includes simple things such as direction of street traffic that other maps leave out Hope there is one for Boston and San Francisco soon                 Clean graphic interface
Such a well designed colorful easy to navigate and extremely accurate and informative tool for anyone who finds themselves in the city A bargain price As good as any app out there                 A must have if you are in NYC
Load time works great for me with the update Also Im happy they took out the ads              Faster
Now updated for iOS 7 Love that I can read the map at any LOD Next step should be in app purchase of the other apps                 Fabulous map
When asked Why are all other maps are so ugly and hard to read Stephan VanDam replied Cartographers are not designers and designers are not cartographers however I am both This is why the VanDam maps are so great both in print and 4D This app needs a few tweaks re the orientation of the button and info The app assumes youll always have your Home button on the left The map doesnt changes orientation properly as well as the buttons and labels The street noise is cute but there needs to be an option to suppress it It is annoying after a while and would be especially problematic in public places like the subway or at work I hope these fixes are implemented in the next version since it will likely make me want to buy the other maps in the series           Best map design but a few bugs that need fixing
Honestly if a company rates its on app then guess its going to rate high however after attempting to use this app it failed miserably on my new iPhone First things first If someone is buying this program then get rid of the ads Why am I buying it if you dump crap in the app Secondly the tiny buttons at the bottom dont work well Tap once for my location Tap twice for something else Tap tap tap not working period The graphics are great but honestly not worth the price Save your money folks on this one It aint worth the pretty pictures     Epic fail
Ive loved this app from the beginning It gets better and better This version seems to download a bit faster But I can see from some of the reviews that many users dont know how to shut down their other apps This is critical for an app of this size Once you figure that out this is such a fun and useful tool And I agree with Steven Heller from the Atlantic review theyre sexy as hell The interactive play with the animated buildings is hugely helpful to newcomers to the city and a delight for those of us who think we know it all And there are more buildings More More I love the fact that now you can hold down your finger on a spot and all the relevant info in that area pops up Gamers will love the play in this By pinching or flicking fingers you can move in and out on the map and move around town What fun Initially when I first go this app I found that it took me a few seconds to realize I could really manipulate this thing The zoom in speed is great the detail awesome and the locator is truly helpful I love turning and twisting it To feel as if youre flying around the city And now there is sound OMG What an experience                 4DmApp VanDam Streetsmart
Planning a trip to NYC and just purchased this app 10 minutes later its still loading     NYC 4DmApp
Clearly there are issues with this app On the rare occasion I actually get it to load past the splash screen it crashes within 3 seconds Probably not worth the risk until problems are addressed     Crashesand nobody cares
This thing has city noise that I cannot figure out how to turn off It is so distracting that I cannot use the map which seems to be only for tourists anyway     Sound
I am a fan and the latest version has more buildings sound and a long touch feature which shows you whats around you Just touch anywhere for a few seconds and sights stand up However this map is super fast and I found that you control it best from flying away by dragging and keeping your finger on it Feels like its attached to your fingertip Remember to quit all running apps                 New Improved
The navigation is swift and smooth with a surroundsight feel and a graceful graphic sense The new version 13 has added the city soundscape for an even more total immersive experience The 3D buildings pop and a touch produces an ID window of that building from the elegant guide to the great sites in the city broken into categories such as Museums Landmarks etc The app takes only a few seconds to load not bad considering all the features and will transport you to new dimensions in experiencing the city                 A Truly Immersive Experience
Van Dams Street Smart maps have long been the best walking maps for a city and they have now provided the same street smart approach to their 4D map apps One great result of their novel approach is that you can recognize features of your skyline view right there on the map to orient yourself More than just a map its a selfguided virtual tour of the city                 more than a street map a virtual tour of the city
User interface should take some queues from google maps Its sticky and fights your gestures more than helps This is clearly made for the iPad but why would I be walking around with an iPad The only good thing is it has a long list of locations worth visiting in the city and you dont have to wait for loading like in google maps           Good but Not great
Navigation is great if all you want to do is enjoy the cool 3D map If you want to use it as a map not so much It shows a few buildings midtown a few downtown and a few in Brooklyn Queens You cant change the view elevation Having tried it out I cant say Id ever open it again Im glad it was free        Pretty to look at but not very useful
Ive downloaded tons of NYC maps and this is by far the best one Highlights all the citys points of interest and even has a subway map Very interactive I highly recommend it                 Great App
Installed on Itouch and the graphics dont run smoothly very jumpy move           Jumpy
I happen to be good with maps and geographic reckoning but this apps offers the valueadd of making map reading more userfriendly and faster on mobile devices              This app isnt hype
Love it I do wish it would load a bit faster though Seems like I am waiting forever sometimes Thanks much              Almost perfect
nb I am using a first gen iPad This is actually a really cool app and the implementation is very interesting Unfortunately for me it crashes 8 of 10 attempts conservatively speaking I have restarted resynced cleared the cache and generally tried everything but this app crashes frequently which negates any positive value the geewhiz graphics may provide I hope the developers spend more time on stabilizing the app for the next release        Great when it works
Luckily I got the app for free I have only been able to use the app once Otherwise it never loads All I get are simulated street noises and a home page The developers need to work on the upload time Until then Ive deleted the app     Never loads
I purchased Van Dam NYC and am very disappointed in the product I sent a text to customer service They suggested i close out of all open applications before starting the program The application crashes every time Buyer beware     Waste of money
Yup keeps crashingpretty sure its an awesome app otherwise but Ill not know because it crashes while loading     Crashes
Had wonderful technical support when I had troubles with this and other unrelated apps That was a bonus because now I can swoop around NYC at will Have shown this app off to overseas visitors who are keen to have the same at home Carry on the good work                 Smart
Well I guess no changes or updates have been made to this app because even the developer knows its a nonworking piece of crp     One Star Because Zero Stars Isnt An Option
Mapmaker VanDam is expanding his realm with these apps taking you on a sensational ride through a city you think you knew You tilt and turn and squeeze your way through the canyons of Manhattan gawking exploring shopping You fearlessly cross the bridges to hit the hot new neighborhoods of Brooklyn and Long Island City A must have for visiting out of towners And for New Yorkers a fun way to fall in love w their city again                 Miss
Ive been a fan of VanDam maps and apps for a long timelove the playfulness AND usefulnesswish there were more apps like this for other cities                 Wonderful to have this updated
Loading is all it does after this latest update It never actually completes the process A completely broken and useless app Id like to be a little more constructive about how the app performs but since it doesnt Load its a moot point On this evidence this app cannot be recommended and should be avoided until they fix it     Appropriate opening screenshot
I loved Van Dams paper maps because the subway stops are laid out perfectly on the street grid However this app is annoying You cant turn off the sounds which are of horns hocking and traffic why do we need that Also when youre trying to scroll the descriptions of landmarks pop up constantly so you have to keep going back They should make this so you can customize more settings to your liking The 4D is a nice idea but its too overthetop for practical use        Finicky
This was absolutely no help whatsoever while I was in NYC Do not waste your money It was not worth it The app was not capable of determining my location like it promised That function never worked even once That would have been its advantage over a standard map Also it didnt have many attractions on it and I wasnt able to add my own addresses to it to compare where things were Do not buy     Do not purchase
This is a very nice way to explore my City a must have                 Awesome
These VanDam NYC apps are insanely involving They reconstruct the variety and depth of experience that I love about New York a market with sustainable meat from animals raised on small local farms who knew and remind me of how much I have yet to see and do I especially like being able to press a finger to a location and instantly have all the nearby places of interest pop up with the relevant detail just one tap away More to the point though I want one of these for Chicago where I live A caution To make them work reliably you have to quit other open apps so you cant casually flip back and forth to email Angry Birds or whatever Hopefully this gets smoothed out in future releases              Real depth
As a frequent NYC visitor I find this App not only easy to read but extremely intuitive to manage I no longer have to carrry around a NYC print map or lean over subway passengers heads to read the MTA map Not only can I plot subway stations and all NYC streets including Brooklyn but I can easily locate popular sites and attractions which is extremely helpful when playing tour guide for others The offline access is stupendous I recommend a Times Square Theatres category and add Williamsburg in the Nabes list Love it              Love it
Guess what they dont tell you This app will not run on 3rd gen iPod touch 4th gen up Now I know after I have to PAY FOR IT only found out after I visited the developers site Thanks alot iTunes     Could have let us know
No where does it state it is for 3GS and up I found the info on their website after it kept crashing over and over     Misleading info Beware
both beautifully done and a useful navigational tool im a big fan                 its excellent
With this new version comes faster load times which is a welcome improvement over the previous version I love the addition of the long touch interactivity Very helpful in gaining knowledge of other points of interest near a particular location The addition of more 3D buildings makes for an even greater visual feast And the new ambient street sound is a fun surprise and nice touch Using this app on the iPad is especially engaging The best apps are those that are truly practical while they are also wicked fun The StreetSmart app hits that mark Nice work Stephan                 Faster and more interactive
Nice app with lot of info about places Great graphic cool to navigate Takes a little long to start up Also would be nice to add your own places of interest eg restaurants etc Search function does not work Also crashes quite often when mapping places or trying to open web link Needs some work All over a cool helpful app Worth it the money           Has potential
2nice                 2nice
Wow this was a blast to play with It came in great on the subway I got to show the outoftowners where we were heading AS we were heading there They were fascinated with this thing And I really liked the interesting background info I wound up reading through all of the attractions I would have paid THREE bucks for this app Seriously fun                 So Much Fun
