Download this application if you are visiting a place with Glopas audio guide service. Stories are best heard with ear phones / a headset. Guiding goes on automatically when proceeding the sight, based on your GPS location. Stories can also be played by browsing the sights on map, unless the sights are set as secret (you can hear the guiding on a secret sight only by visiting the sight). Glopas is working together with music players. It pauses music while a story is being played, and resumes music after the story finishes.
