Discover Los Angeles

This app actually provides a highly contextual experience. I originally thought I would use this app as a map to get around the city and find attractions but it is much more! The content is highly curated with guides spanning niche topics such as "top places to find cold noodles" to "waffles across the city." The events component is also very nice and gives you a flavor of the diversity of current and upcoming events that range from popular shows at the Staples Center to intimate acts at local venues. I'd definitely recommend that you let this app put the flavors of Los Angeles in your mouth, sites of Los Angeles in your eyes, the sounds of Los Angeles in your ears and the city of Los Angeles in your palms.

I like the look and feel of the interface but am annoyed by the full-screen pop-up ads that come back every time I switch to a different page. I was hoping that the app doesn’t have to rely on advertising financially but even it does, why can’t it find a more native/less intrusive way to place ads? (could be ‘sponsored posts’, smaller/swipeable banners, or at least ads with some frequency capping so that the same ad doesn’t show more than necessary ...)

Quality of life issues need fixing, like how hard it is to swipe between items / register a tap on small button like heart.

I like the set up and its features, and I also like what it has to offer. BUT! If it takes forever to load when you have strong WiFi I’m not likely going to use it just based out of lack of patience, plenty of other sources with identical information.

The app seems interesting but I can’t login to save anything. During the sign up process I kept getting an error notice but on their desktop site it seems that the sign up worked. When I came back to the app I still cannot log in. This is not helping me.
