Which cities can I walk?

Barcelona, Rome and Berlin. Every place on the map is graded and routable, and new stories appear without an app update.

How close do I need to be for a story to start?

About 50 metres. On a route, the next stop's story starts when you get there. Off a route, turn on autoplay for nearby places or tap one on the map.

Do I need an account?

No. There is nothing to sign up for. Your walks, places and cities are stored on your phone.

Does audio keep playing with the screen locked?

Yes. Stories play in the background, with play and pause on the lock screen like any other audio app.

Can I walk with friends?

Yes. Up to five people join by QR for the day. You lead, and everyone hears the same story at the same moment, in their own language.
