Amazing ideaSimple but super useful idea. I hope I never have to use this for emergency purposes, but knowing that I have it feels good.
Great ConceptThis has made finding any location faster and gets you right to the door.
Real guide mapI think it’s one of the best technologies created in the last years, so far. Chris, the founder, is a visionary.
Square up your travelsWith What3words it’s fast , convenient, and exact ....
I’m flabbergastedI’m amazed at the precision, and I wonder whether it will work so I can locate my AirPod cases.
Fantastic AppThis is a fantastic app, always knowing where you are located.
This is fabulous, but you hope you never see r neeSaw this on CBS his Morning. This can be a life saving app. I want to share it with family and friends.

Just plain brilliant!Thank you for this wonderful app – it is just plain brilliant!
A positive in 2020This is such a great idea. Thank you for coming up with this app.
What3wordsElegant, intuitive , and remarkable.
Everyone should use this, especially realtors!Have you ever looked at a real estate listing, especially for rural land, to find the address vague? No matter how hard you try,
you can’t find the property using an online map. How great would it be if realtors used this app to locate the entrance to the
property so precisely! I have recommended th
easy to use. why didn’t apple think of this?easy to find friends at the beach or concert. just give them your address and they can find you even with no street address.
Omniscient Azura Ahura MazdaTells truth. Wells and pools optional.
A lifesaverAnything that can get medical personnel to an emergency location the quickest possible way is a lifesaver.
DOWNLOAD IT FIRST IN YOUR FAM!Seriously, go download it already, tell the family and friend to do it too. This is going to change how we deal with the world
forever. AND ITS FUN, the word combos can just sound plain silly, I just go on sometimes and click the squares around where I am
and always get a good laugh or 2. NONE of th

Love this app as a hikerOften, there is no address for hikes and so this is a great app to track all of the trails that I love. And also great to direct
my friends to meet me there. However. I seem to have hit a limit on the number of places that I can save. I would like to have
more ability to save more locations. Thanks!
Innovative!I can’t help but believe this world wide addressing method is our future.
In Seattle, we have 5 streets with 145 in the name, and at least 2 of them actually cross.
I wish we had this app then 👍
The Future of navigation is here!The concept is brilliant and the implementation is flawless. I've never had so much fun looking up random places on a map! And the
use cases are endless. I'd love a journaling or travel blogging app that used this technology.
Compatible with Google Maps and Apple Maps.“Key app features:
Compatible with navigation and messaging apps including Google Maps and Apple Maps”.
I tried entering my 3 word address into Google Maps & Apple Maps, but “No results”.
Your FAQ tells the correct story:
“Can I type it in to Google maps?”
@While a 3 word address cannot yet be
Great FunMake a list of words for some significant places/experiences you have lived.
Write your life’s story.
Try one for possible places in your future.
ExcellentThe more you use this app. the more uses you fine for it. The best ideas / inventions are always the simplest. This app. is
sublime
FunNot sure why we need a new navigation tool, but it’s fun to play around with.
UPS should use this...I remember reading about this in The Economist years ago. It is smooth , well developed , and more useful than I first imagined.
Super clever ideaHours of fun and fascination; looking forward to see future business, government, National Parks use.
NavigationApparently I am off to a good start.
That Facebook/Google loginIn my previous review, I complained about a login process that included "Continue with" Facebook and Google options. No thanks, I
thought, they already know enough about me.
Since then, I have contacted by them. They graciously pointed out that many of the app's features, including the most import
Travel woesA year or two ago I was in Costa Rica looking for an Airbnb I had booked in a super sketchy neighborhood. Everyone had tall gates
and walls around their houses. The directions had an address and “ we are the house with a pink door and a tall flag pole. I
drove around that super sketch neighborhood f
Useful appVery useful and helpful app, though I do wish it would have the option to stay on- I use it while driving to report potholes and
find I have to keep touching the screen often to keep the phone from going into lock mode.
So easyIt is the fastest way I know of to give a specific location to anyone, on any platform. Everyone should have this on their device,
and be able to help family members download it onto theirs so that they can be found in case of emergency, or just a social meet
up. So easy to use.
W3W the humane way of identifying locationI have been using What3Words for about two years and continue to love it. It is so much easier for the elderly to remember 3 words
than trying to memorize two strings of of eight to to ten digits in length.
Game changer!I wish everyone would start using this app! What3words revolutionizes the way we think of locations and finding things. What an
awesome idea and the implementation is fantastic. Please give it a try!
AwesomeIt’s amazing to be able to save people’s lives. What would make this app even better if it was able to be data free. Just
Incase you were somewhere you don’t have a signal. If there was an emergency situation. If you had a satellite phone. You could
save anyone world wide.
Great idea!This is one of the best things I have seen for navigation. The developers of this app have created a lifesaving tool like no
other.
Huge leap forward for safetyImagine being able to describe exactly where you are, anywhere you are, to emergency services by saying 3 words. For instance, if
you’re in the middle of the woods, or in an unfamiliar place. It’s an amazingly simple and powerful tool. Every parent should
have it, and every emergency service should
Another “disruptive” technologyAn immensely important app that everyone should download. This has the capability of being another “disruptive,” game-changing
technology. This simplifies a desired address to a 3x3 meter square. This could improve navigation for regular commuting, ride
sharing, delivery services, search and rescue.
Just....wow!I just downloaded this on the advice of a friend and I am already impressed beyond measure! I pray I never need it but, if I do, I
won’t hesitate to pull it up.
App consistently 2 squares offTried this app at home after I downloaded and it consistently showed my location 2 squares off from where I was. Not too far off
granted, though it was a little unnerving when I went upstairs and the blue location dot placed me up in a tree in the park next
to my house.
Outstanding!Not only is the math fun and cool the concept is fabulous! We’ve not only had great success navigating with it, but we’ve had
a blast just playing with it! Great way to get kids interested in orienteering and navigation too!
Critic reviews
Great app with a big flawI love the idea of this app and they have done well implementing it. HOWEVER, it is useless without cellular data (which I
suspect is the case in many, if not most, areas that do not have street addresses). I tried using the app in several national
parks ( which have spotty or no cell service) ove
DNS service for your appIf only you would let us choose our words. That would make your app explode and everyone would use it.
Ok but needs fixingSo I was trying to get an Uber to my correct location, but my beacon for “where I was standing” was moving around everywhere
and I couldn’t see exactly where I was
Location finding is not reliableThe concept of this app is fantastic! Every 9 square meter area of the planet has a unique three word combination. Very useful
to find precise locations, EXCEPT.... it can never quite find me. It’s the only map-related app I’ve used that keeps bouncing
around to try and find me. I don’t know why
Needs improvementsThis is a very good idea and concept. The app though needs some improvements:
1) A way to actually copy the three words without all the extra text copied with it. Maybe this is in the settings maybe this is a
separate ‘copy’ selection.
2) A way to pronounce the three words. Yes there’s a microphone
