## What is GeoWiki?

Find out what makes the places around you worth a closer look. GeoWiki maps nearby landmarks and lets you read or listen to their Wikipedia™ articles.

Get to know your own neighborhood, follow your curiosity on a trip, or move the map to explore somewhere you plan to visit.

• Discover places around you
Find historic buildings, monuments, museums, parks and other notable places on a map, in standard or satellite view. Sort the nearby list by Recommended, Closest or Popular, search it by name, and see how far away each place is.

• Follow your interests
Filter the map by History, Architecture, Religion, Education, Nature, Art & Culture, Sports and Transport.

• Go beyond the name
Open a place for a photo, a short summary and, where available, a street-level Look Around preview. Keep reading in a reader built for iPhone, with headings, photos, lists, fact tables and charts. Zoom in on images and see their credits where available.

• Listen to the story
Press play to hear an article read aloud. Pause and resume whenever you like, with narration in the article's language when a matching voice is installed.

• Choose your article language
Choose from 28 Wikipedia languages, follow your app language, or use the local language of the area you're exploring. Articles open in your chosen language when available, with English as a fallback. The app interface is available in 10 languages.

• Find your bearings with AR Explore
Hold up your iPhone to see nearby places in their approximate direction, then open one to learn more. Available on compatible iPhones.

• Simple and private
No account, no sign-up and no ads. GeoWiki has no server of its own: to find nearby articles, it sends the coordinates of the area you're exploring directly to Wikipedia. The camera is used only for AR Explore, and camera images are never saved or uploaded. GeoWiki supports Dynamic Type, VoiceOver and Dark Mode.

Open GeoWiki and get to know the place you're in.

An internet connection and location access are needed for discovery. Article and image availability varies by place and language.
