Touring Engine app for iPhone and iPad

Touring Engine is a location-aware application which uses GPS geofences to trigger media playback. Touring Engine uses Apple Maps to route you to a destination, then upon arrival emits a local notification you tap to play full-quality media content (audio, video and synthesized speech). Tours contain any number of destinations, and users consume tours authored by others or compose their own.

This is a crowdsourced touring application where users create public tours open to everyone, or private tours available to select share participants. Public tours remain available for minimally 30 days while private tours are retained under author control.

The application can be used to create travel tours, location based radio stations, realtor talking home tours, and more. Each user determines when and if they wish to watch or listen to location triggered media.

Touring Engine is a social application, and allows you to be both user and producer.

As a user, swipe down on the Nearby pane to view tours which might exist in the immediate vicinity. Or, click the magnifying glass in the upper right to type in a city or address to view tours in remote areas.

As a producer, click on the Tours Pane, tap Public in the upper control, then tap the plus button to create a tour. Please view our online demo video on our website for an explanation of the tour creation process.

The optional recurring Private Tour subscription duration is 30 days, costs $2.99 (US), and is auto-renewing until cancelled by the user.
