What's New in ECHOES interactive sound walks

6.0.9

September 28, 2026

Echoes has been completely rebuilt from the ground up. This incremental update brings a whole host of small fixes and improvements for the UI. It improves the location offset feature, fixes issues with retaining downloaded files after an update, and adds in better loading notification for large walks. We've spent months rewriting Echoes with a brand new engine — faster, smoother, and built to support everything we've got planned next for location-based audio. This is a fresh foundation, not just a facelift, so please bear with us as we iron out any rough edges. If something feels off or you spot a bug, we'd love to hear about it: support@echoes.xyz Thanks for walking with us.

User reviews

Baffling

Great concept but uploading and designing the walk is a buggy nightmare!

So bad

Tried to use this for a tour. 2 sound tracks played at once over top of each other continuously. Tour was unsuccessful. I would not recommend.

Buggy, geolocation doesn’t work.

Really buggy, not viable for live production. Constant sound quality errors that require you to re-download the tour and in some instances doesn’t geolocate at all!

Stupendous

Five stars from me as it’s just brilliant on my old IPhone. Could do with some more content, but that will come soon, won’t it ;-)

Choral Lab SoundWalk

I experienced this in Cheeseman Park in Denver. What a wonderful way to enjoy the Park! It’s ingenious! The sounds are really incredible. Kudos to the composers and vocalists!

The app uses GPS or iBeacons to detect when you enter a geofenced area associated with specific sounds or content. When you are within these areas, the relevant audio, video, text, or images are triggered, allowing you to keep your device in your pocket and focus on the experience.

Is the app free to use?

The app can be downloaded for free, and you can explore a collection of audio walks. While the app itself is free, there may be in-app purchases for additional content or premium features, though the description mentions creating walks is free.

Can I use the app offline?

Yes, you can download individual tours and save them for offline use. This is particularly useful for areas with patchy connectivity. Ensure you have GPS enabled and headphones plugged in to start your walking experience.
