Beware: Badly broken
Update: developer contacted me claiming battery drain is an
iOS 26 issue. Odd that no other app I use performs like VoiceMap, so this seems like an excuse to me. The playback stopping/tour quitting was not mentioned in the dev’s reply.
Used VoiceMap on two trips to Italy more than a year ago and it was great. But on a recent (26-07) trip the app performed terribly. Audio kept stopping during the tour, on my iPhone 17 Pro. Happened at least 5x in about an hour. About half the time the app had quit/crashed. And the app drained the battery on 2 17-series iPhones absurdly fast! Lost about 75% in just 2 hrs.

Amazing Tours of Your Favorite Places
This app is awesome. You can use it to walk-cycle-drive some of the best self-guided tours in the world. It always works great. We love it!
Incredible
Everything about this tour of Mantua was superb! I only wish I had discovered this author (Mike Corradi) earlier in our trip so we could have enjoyed his tours of other towns in Italy. Highly recommend.
Amazing game changer
This app is brilliant - I’ve used it all over Europe and it is now my first stop when exploring a new place
Travel at your own pace
In this audio tour of Tallin, we loved the continuous thread of a people striving for independence. And we truly enjoyed Heidi’s narration and great research. Thoroughly enjoyable!!
