National Park Education in your hand.
This app offers an awesome experience and opportunity to visit various National Parks without having to travel to them. Education in the palm of your hand.
Excellent App
This app is extraordinary.It gives wonderful access to the National Parks. The writing is so good it makes you want to go to the parks.
Helps in planning a visit
By previewing a park’s brochure before I visit, I can make better choices about what I want to experience at the park. The app is easy to navigate and I can get more or less info depending on my interests.
Great access to national Park brochures, including illustrations and maps for people who are blind
Highly recommend
Parks are for All!
So thankful this project exists to help bring more parks to more people. Easy to navigate and full of helpful content!
😁
I’m just learning how this tool works. As I see it I think this will be a wonderful access for anyone who has difficulty reading for any reason
Great way to experience AD in practice
If you are new to audio description and just want to explore it as a user, this app is rich with content that delivers it. Unidescription demonstrates how AD works in practice and makes several U.S. national parks accessible in the process!
Wonderful App
Really enjoying the audio description for parks I have visited in the past. Wish it had been available sooner!!! thank you
Great App
Very simple app with lots of information. Great to use with screen readers. Lots of audio description content.
Very intuitive!
I am very pleased with how intuitive this app is, it is fully optimized for iPhone and mobile devices.
AMAZING
What a powerful tool! Thanks for working so hard creating this amazing resource.
Game Changing
This app gives a new view of national parks to the blind or low vision user opening the “outdoors” in an accessible way. And for those of us with vision helps us to experience the parks in a new way. Completely amazing!
Who knew?
Although I am not blind, I am involved in a project learning about and helping to create audio description. This app has helped me understand more not only about audio description, but about its importance in helping the visually impaired community gain access to these natural sites.
New Voice: A Game-Changer!
New Voice: A Game-Changer!
Being totally blind, I often felt left out when visiting our national parks. Now, I can fully appreciate everything surrounding me. The new synthetic voice is a significant improvement.
Moreover, the app's overview of all the national park sites has introduced me to places that I didn't even know existed. From hidden gems tucked away in remote corners to well-known landmarks, this app has something for everyone—whether you're planning a visit to a specific national park or simply seeking a virtual adventure.

Great
It’s great for accessibility
More Than Just Frosting on the Cake
This app not only teaches the public about audio description and provides opportunities to contribute content, but it also serves as a vehicle for exploring treasured national parks where everyone can learn about them, and people who are blind or have low vision can gain access to all that information most people take for granted. talk about a win-win situation!

Pretty easy to use
Simple and intuitive for the most part.
Useful but needs emotion
I found this app to be very useful; however as a sighted person never using this type of system, I found the automatic description “robot” voice to be too boring and unemotive.
