Berkeley, California

The VoiceMap app uses GPS to play audio automatically, at the right time and place, so you can focus on your surroundings, not the screen.

VoiceMap tours follow a route from a fixed starting point. That lets us give turn-by-turn directions and use context to tell a better story.

If you'd like to stop for a drink or go into a museum, end your tour then use the Resume feature to pick up exactly where you left off.

You can listen to your tours as often as you like using both the VoiceMap app and website.

Select Virtual mode in the VoiceMap app to listen to tours like a podcast - at home or in transit.

Once you've purchased a tour, it's added to your VoiceMap library. To access it in the app, just sign in using the same account.

Tours work offline, so you don't have to pay roaming fees. Just download them over WiFi before you get started.
