Hiya

Sorry if this has been discussed already!

Just wondered if anyone's glastonav worked during the festival?

I didn't get any updates and for the majority of time couldn't get into it to check the bands I had highlighted.

What a waste of money!   :)

The map was spot on, got me from Jazz World to the Other Stage when I was completely lost and was supposed to be meeting mates.  I thought the schedule thing would have beeped up when a band I wanted to see was due to be on, that was a bit naff, but all in all I thought it was a bit nifty, even for my phone which doesn't do the internet very well.

It was good for showing what bars were open early doors and late at night.

For that alone it was worth it!!!

whilst it could possibly do it, i hate using the phone for anything other than calls/texts, the screens too small for anything else imo


if it used GPS to guide you from a -> b that'd be AMAZING!!

be super handy when getting lost, assuming you still have a mobile with battery left, flick it on, it sees where you are and guides you back to your chosen area


Personally i would like it to guide you back to your tent, like when you get there, turn it on and set 'my location' i.e. your campsite, then it could guide you back there at any time, that'd be immense

i found it pretty hard at glasto to find my tent
