App summary

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.

The app guides you through the city by voice, using your GPS location. Just listen and enjoy a city’s attractions while your virtual tour guide explains it all and shares personal insights. Tours are developed by local experts who know their cities inside-and-out.

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

The App can also record your trip: you can create an amazing 3D video of the sights you see on your travels with one click.

• AUDIO GUIDED TOURS – The app leads you with clear audio cues and once you approach a sight you will automatically hear the stories about it .

• SELECTION OF LANGUAGES – Most of our tours are available in English, but you can find tours in your own language as well.

No organized start and stop. Had us walking in circles back to sites we had just passed by. Information on sites was good but limited

Unusable. It tells me I should grant the app storage permission in settings, but when I go to settings, 'storage' is not even on the list of permissions I can grant. Easy uninstall.

Worked quite well and without issues. It refunded my purchase after deleting the app (since i had no use for it and don't like unused apps on my phone). Probably not intended that way, but thanks.
