Couldn’t get code and app to work together. Never used the app for intended purpose. Code provided by Viator would not work.

Hi! The code is in step 3 of your booking ticket, and I also texted it to you :). It started with "so........." So sorry you did not see this. The code is not the viator booking number. it's the code in the ticket, it's from us at Walkntours :). The Good news is the tour never expires and you can take it anytime, so please feel free to use the code and unlock the tour and take it anytime.

We found the interface not user friendly and abandoned it at the second square. The next location recording would start before the first location had finished.

When taking tours on the WalknTours app you need to allow location permission for our tour to tell the story on location. You did not allow for location permission. That's why you had the issue. To offer a GPS location aware experience, we need to know your location :). I hope next time you take a tour, you'll allow it, then it will work :) Thanks!
