How to download offline cities in app?

Hi, on the 'new' Android app under 'me' I can see 'downloaded cities', yet I cannot find out how you download one... Can anyone help please? Thanks.

I'm not sure it'll work if you find how. I have an iPhone and I see a button to Add a city on the upper right corner of the page "Downloaded Cities". Yet when I try to add a city, it opens that city page but never starts the download.

Check and see if you have an Add button in the location I described or somewhere else on that Downloaded Cities page. Maybe it works on Android.

Aside from that, all you can do is to send TripAdvisor feedback either with the feedback button in the app or through www.tripadvisor.co.uk/generalsupport Click on General Site Questions and select Mobile App or Site

I had a similar issue on my Android phone. I can't find any way to add a city from the downloaded cities page. When I visited the online page for a small city I couldn't find anything, but when I perused a major city just after the "Places to eat" section there was "Get to know XXXX" Directly below that was a green arrow followed by "Download." When I clicked on it it gave the familiar options of basic or full (more megabytes).

The next question is how can you get a list of cities for which these downloads are available so you don't have to go through lots of dead ends looking for cities you can download?

I'm not aware that you can downloaded city guides to view off-line at this time. I can see the Add button in the downloaded cities area of my profile, but attempting to add a city will only open the city page online.

Use the link I provided to provide feedback to TripAdvisor on this missing feature.

after a little hassle I FOUND IT!!! Search for your destination city, scroll a little down. In my case it was Bangkok, so I scrolled past "Shops", hotels, tours and activities, nightlife, restaurants, AND THEN - "GET TO KNOW BANGKOK". there is an option to download in this section. HOWEVER, this option is absent in other cities, like Pattaya... so it may not be available to all locations

I downloaded a guide for Buenos Aires on my Android phone, and it shows in the list of downloaded cities, so far it's the only one, but when i press on it, no content is available offline. What could be the issue?
