  • it shakes in relation to camera position. An easy fix. Have the text bubble stable & just the arrow to the castle move in relation to the cam. Have to admit that's pretty stable for handheld at over 2 miles away.

  • Great, well done!

    A question, why is the text on the screen shaking all the time? Perhaps it would be a good idea to somehow stabilize its position on the screen to increase the readability.

  • @Freddan0 LOL

  • ANDROID FTW this is rocking

  • Go Android!

  • as some have noticed, it does shake because of the instability of the camrea, however, you can also click on a POI and your browser takes you to the descrription/review page. There are 3 modes Cam / List and Map, although the Map looks the coolest.

  • Hi,

    Very nice feature.

    I have the feeling that it would be easier to read the text if it would be fix on the screen.

    I would expect the possibility to navigate to the Wiki article when selecting the text.
