About

Promenad App

Read full description

Interactive audio walks connected to real places. For example, follow the killer's footsteps in the walk about the murder of Prime Minister Olof Palme. Or let Krister Henriksson's voice guide you through the neighborhoods where the novel Doctor Glass takes place. In Spionen Karin Lannby, we travel back to Stockholm during the war years and hear the exciting story of one of Sweden's few female spies. The app contains these and many more experiences in which the experience is also enhanced with the help of augmented reality.
