Pros and cons of AthensBook app for iPhone and iPad

AthensBook app good for

Maintaining a 5 star rating. Although I would love to have ability to log-in with my email address when I forget my login name.
Works perfectly and now with Navigon integrated even more versatile UH
Very helpful overall. I use it often. I recommend it to anyone living in or passing through Athens. Traffic feature needs work. It would be nice if there could also be an "avoid" vote. Are Hearts aggregated into Thumbs up recommendations?
Whether youre a local or a tourist, if you have this app, all others go into a folder that is just never opened. all info - whether for cinemas or pharmacies or gas stations - is seamlessly integrated with maps, and its extremely fast. I love it. It would be perfect if it had theatre & gig listings, too!
Lots of useful information. Pity traffic has been lost - even though my understanding is it is not the softwares fault. Enhancements in information provided were more frequent in the past.

Some bad moments

Good idea, but shortly after installing crashes constantly. Reboot and re-installing app dont solve the problem. Needs fixing.
