Seems like this app is basically dead. Feedback link in settings doesn't work, no posts on their instagram since February. I'm off to Amsterdam today and did a search in Explorest for locations — not a single one! Doesn't bode well.
Last time I used the app a couple years ago it was showing all the locations to explore. Now you have to pay monthly. Really? Why so greedy ? It's very disappointing. I'm deleting it.
unusable app, poor recommendations, not enough data and a paywall. uninstall
Too expensive
Expensive. And since it is expensive, there are not many users and that leads to little contribution.

Thank you so much for your encouraging star ratings!
Honnestly the concept and graphic design of the app are really good. The main issue is the lack of spots. It's down to a good diversity of contries, but way way behind competitors like Locationscout. Still, the quality of the shots is better, but I wished after 3 years of using it, that much more content creators would join the app ! Hopefully it will keep doing better in the future !

Dear IAF, thanks for taking the time to review Explorest and to share your feedback! We're thrilled that you believe the concept and graphic design of our app are really good, but also that you would like more locations! You're not a alone. Soon, we will be launch a new feature allowing all of our community to contribute locations. Keep an eye out!
Imagine needing to sign up to see some of the most common landmarks and literally not a single place in your own country, at least let me check if there's something for me in before forcing me to register for nothing.
This was okay before, but the spammy notifications really ruined it.

Hi Harrison, thank you for this review! We take our community's feedback seriously, so we appreciate your feedback about notifications. At present, we send just one notification every 7-12 days about exciting places to discover on the app. Can you get in touch at hello@explorest.com, we'd love to understand the right balance you're looking for!
I will use this anytime I go somewhere new
