Description

PocketGuide, the world’s leading audio city guide application, reveals the best stories, insider hangouts and must-see sights in more than 150 major cities and tourist destinations.

PocketGuide turns your mobile device into a personal tour guide: The GPS figures out where you are, and a voice recording, made by a local guide, describes the sights around you. You don’t need to read text from your phone, just listen and enjoy a city’s attractions while your virtual tour guide explains it all and shares personal insights.

PocketGuide works offline, so you save on roaming charges, and it includes loads of critical reviews that help you decide where to eat, drink and shop.

We also have fascinating themed tours, for those who want to go off the beaten path. Find the top tapas in Barcelona, get chic in NYC’s East Village or follow the trail of a 19th century serial killer in London.

Whether you're interested in the main sights or "the road less traveled", PocketGuide is ready to take you there.

Please note that continuous use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Pocket guide Rome

Very useful and provided real insight during our 3 day visit. The gps positioning worked well giving us information on what was near. The augmented reality whilst interesting worked less well. It needs to be more accurate often not showing near places as such and places father away being shown as near

Stratford upon Avon

Right from the start this was amazing, we were guided first to the beginning of the tour via Google maps, as we approached the start a voice introduced her self. There were 25 points of interest on the tour, we were guided seamlessly to each point using voice and interactive maps and each time we approached a point the narrator would explain where we were and why and pictures appear under the map. We also used my Apple Air Pods using one pod each allowed both of us to listen. Brilliant, and you finally end up where you started. Priceless!

Too many adverts

The actual tour was interesting and easy to follow but I was disappointed by the constant adverts for different places/experiences that I could ‘book now’ through the app. I expect to have to listen to adverts if I am not paying for a product but if I’ve paid for it I feel like I should at least have the chance to ‘opt out’ of advert content. The adverts were annoying and distracted from an otherwise enjoyable tour.
