## What is Unbound?

Just go. Explore unbound.

Unbound is the audio guide that follows you, not the other way around. Walk, ride or drive wherever you like: Unbound knows where you are and tells you what happened there. Find what you weren’t looking for: from landmarks to the places most people simply walk past. On foot, by bike, by car or by train, in more than 130 countries.

ROAM FREELY
• Nothing to book, nothing to plan: tap start and put your phone away.
• Your guide tells you about what lies to your left, your right and ahead, and keeps pace with you.

BUILT ON FACTS
• Every story is researched from Wikipedia and other reliable sources, not made up.
• Told like a story, but true. Read and share everything you heard later on.

BY CAR, CAMPER VAN AND TRAIN
• Road trip, van life, work drive: your guide tells you about the land outside and the places along the way, and keeps pace with you.
• With Apple CarPlay on your car’s screen, controlled from the steering wheel too.
• On a train or bus it tells you about what passes by the window.

RATHER HAVE A PLAN? TAKE A TOUR.
• Unbound suggests tours for your city, on foot or by bike, from a stroll through the neighborhood to the great classics. On the map you see them all at a glance.
• Between its stops, the way passes more interesting places, and your guide tells you about them too.
• Every tour can be customized, or you create your own, with notes at every stop and places of your own.
• Publish it for others, and everyone who takes it earns you explorer points, and points bring free passes again and again.

THE JOURNEY IS THE DESTINATION
• Need to get somewhere? A navigation app takes the fastest way. Unbound suggests one that passes the most interesting places, only a few minutes longer, and tells you about each on the way.

YOUR GUIDE, YOUR INTERESTS
• Put guides together yourself: everything a place has to offer, or just your topics from history and architecture to nature and culture, how much they tell and which voice speaks.
• For kids, too: short stories in simple words, about knights, animals and inventors.

BETTER TOGETHER
• Explore together: everyone hears the same story at the same moment, each on their own phone.
• Places from explorers: suggest places no encyclopedia knows, rate and comment.
• Progress you can see: points, levels, badges and a map that fills in wherever you have been.

AND MORE
• Just ask: hold the microphone button and ask about what you see.
• The map: tap a place and hear its story, even from your sofa.
• Near you: the places with a story within walking distance, and the best day trips within 25 km.
• At a glance: where am I, actually? The essentials about district, city and country in a few minutes.
• What's on: festivals, markets, concerts, exhibitions and more, right where you are.

GOOD TO KNOW
• Unbound speaks English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Danish and Swedish.
• Free to try, no account needed: 20 minutes of pure storytelling, counted only while your guide is talking. That is enough for a long walk.
• After that there are passes for a weekend or a whole holiday that simply end, or a yearly subscription that renews every year until you cancel. With points, from your tours too, you earn passes again and again, up to a whole year.

### 1.2.2 — 2026-11-02

### 1.2.1 — 2026-11-01

Every story now opens with the place and its title, so you notice when a new one begins. On the map you see what is being told during a tour. And your guide understands questions on the way better, even when they come out a little garbled. Plus many small improvements.
