United StatesThe app is completely free of charge and can be used without an Internet connection.
It includes:

- the audioguide tour of the "Remarkable trees"
- the audioguide tour of the Gallery of Coaches
- the audioguide tour of the temporary exhibitions
- an interactive geolocated map of the Estate covering more than 500 points of interest
- useful information to plan your visit: opening times, access, advice
Let the app guide you…
Using the app’s audio commentaries, discover the routes that are open to visitors, the most prestigious areas of the Palace, as well as the least explored corners of the grounds. There are audio, text and video bonuses for extra information.
You can add ‘favorites’ which help you return to the places you have selected.
Explore without getting lost …
Thanks to the interactive map, it’s easy to find services (Wi-Fi, toilets, restaurants, etc.) and places of interest in the Palace, the Gardens of Versailles (the Groves, the Orangery, Latona Fountain…), the Trianon Estate (Grand Trianon, Petit Trianon, the Queen’s Hamlet...) and the Park (the Grand Canal, the Royal Star...).
Using geolocation you can quickly see which services and places of interest are close by.
Planning your visit
Opening times, transport, advice, FAQ, etc. The app gives you the information you need to make the most of your visit and choose the best day to come, depending on the crowds and the programme of events.
The app offers direct access to the Palace ticketing service and to the Palace e-boutique.
Not massively useful other than the audio tour stuff.
Definitely download all the routes while your still have wifi in town. Not very user friendly. Interactive map was useless. Was great, however, to be able to play the audio guide at will... Once we figured out where we were.
Useless
Prepare before you get there. Download all the guides (pops up as an option when you install the app). You can then use it without using your data. App itself isn't overly user friendly. Don't bother clicking 'Start tour', it gives you a screen with no info that goes no further. Instead, click 'Map', check the number next to the info board in each room, search for the number, then click the audio guide the app shows. Some guides are missing, but pretty good overall.
100mb + 230mb more... Seriously its not traveling friendly
It worked only twice, after second leaving the app no information about rooms could be listened. However, while it worked, I liked it very much. Not too much data, just perfect for 1h tour around the palace, with information about the most beautiful rooms.
Worked only once. After that, it won't show any points of interest in the map, won't allow me to download audio guides and became useless.
The Olympic rings have been added to celebrate the sporting events taking place this summer in the Park of the Palace of Versailles.
