About our guides:
We make great, interactive travel guides.
To make our guides we use the content that is freely available. Open content sites like Wikitravel, Wikipedia, World66 and Openstreetmap are among the best resources for any traveler. Our mission is to make that content relevant for you. So we mix and mash and annotate - and we distill great, relevant travel guides out of it.
We like open content. In fact some of us were involved in World66, one of the first open content travel guides on the web. Our travel guides are very much a re-mix of open content out there.
Currently were using content from: Wikipedia, Wikitravel, World66, Open Streetmaps, DMOZ and Chefmoz
Were big fans of these projects. If you stumble across some inaccurate information in this guide, we would appreciate
it if you correct it on the web site of these projects.
Pros and cons of Norway Travel Guide by Triposo app for iPhone and iPad

Some bad moments
taking our 1st and probably only trip to Norway. App is giving a good overview. Good place to check on sightseeing and the things to see & do in particular cities. Interesting in the areas of attractions & the things to know about each area. Most guides just stick to Oslo. So many more areas to explore & this app gives the options.
At first, I found this guide nice. As I continued to venture into it deeper, I found it held a vast wealth of information equal if not better than a thick travel guide, yet on my iPhone. Every page so informative about Norway. I could not imagine using any other guide traveling.
Just downloaded this app and it has a lot of useful information. However, I cant get it to save my favorite cities as its supposed to do.
Spent $7 to get the upgraded pro version. I think it is worth it.
One request - can you add a functionality to force a download of all information so that I can access the latest info off-line please? I just need a button "update now!" somewhere. Thanks.
I got the light version for free to check it out. This is a very handy app. The feature I like most is the Create Your Own city-walk (we did Trondheim). To generate the city-walk, first browse the many suggested sights, saving the ones you want to visit. Then you "create" and the app generates your walking tour in both a direction list and a map. We mostly used the map and guided ourselves to the milestones with the GPS feature. My only negative comment is minor. Specifically, sometimes the GPS "wandered" a little, so that our actual location might have been a half block different than the GPS displayed correction. Soon it would self correct and everything would return to normal. I learned if I kept my iPad in a horizontal position, this problem did not seem to occur. But if you had this app on your smartphone and put the phone n your pocket, I dont know how well it could keep the GPS updated. Again, it self corrects fairly quickly so I wouldnt rate this as a major flaw. Probably a hardware limitation and not the app.
Triposo is the best travel guide in App Store! Im using in all my travels and it is amazingly helpful! You gonna love it!!
