Lose Yourself Without Getting Lost! GPSMyCity

3/1/2017

0 Comments

 

Menin Gate, Ypres, Belgium

Wouldn't it be wonderful to have your own, personal guide for over 6,000 different walks around the world, and across more than 700 cities?

Well now it's possible!

Blog article apps are a new concept in travel apps for IOS devices.

They are the latest offering from GPSMyCity, and I’m pleased to announce that a few of my posts have been turned into apps. You can download these apps for free, or pay for an upgrade.

Review: "I am a frequent traveler and travel blogger and can't praise the GPSmyCity app enough. When I find myself in a new destination, unsure of what to see and do, this app is a life saver! It offers such a wide variety of destinations and highlights unique attractions that you won't find in any guide book...."


​What Are GPSMyCity Article Apps?

​GPSMyCity produces city walk apps for over 700 cities across the world.

The walks may be general (like “San Francisco’s Highlights”), or thematic (such as the “Murray Hill Architecture Walk” in New York). They use GPS tracking on your iPhone to chart your progress around the route and prevent you from becoming lost.

Many of the city apps now have links to articles covering different aspects of the area, including places of interest, restaurants and shops.

​You can even access the article offline, allowing you to read it without internet access.

The app is linked to a GPS, so when exploring a city you can access information mentioned in the article.

Review: "I have installed this app a while ago and all I can say is it's here to stay. The compilation of articles is very useful - a well curated selection of recent writings in one place. I like the UI, it's easy and friendly. I used it mainly as a local trying to find new places to explore. I definitely recommend a try. Good job guys!


​Upgraded Apps Giveaway

There are two ways to access article apps on your IOS device.

1) You can click on the link at the end of a blog post that has been turned into an app (if you haven’t already downloaded the free GPSMyCity app you will be prompted to do so).

2) Once you have the GPSMyCity app, you can browse by city to view the articles available. A FREE download of the article is available - or upgrade to use the offline function and GPS tracking.

For a limited period I am offering a free upgrade on the following article app so you can see how it works (Free upgrade available until 6th March 2017):

​Menin Gate, Ypres - Belgium - follow the instructions below.

Review: "This is a great app. While it's main use is for walking tours, I have found it great for researching places I want to go. It much easier for me to find the info I am interested in here as compared to TripAdvisor or surfing the web as tours and blog descriptions can all be found in same place! Highly recommend."


​FREE UPGRADE

For a FREE upgraded app:

1) Click on the link for the article(s) you are interested in.

​2) Follow the instructions to download the GPSMyCity app. You will then be taken to the page for the article app – click on Upgrade and the app will be automatically linked to an offline map and the GPS navigator.

Note: If you do upgrade one of my downloaded travel articles, I will receive a few cents. It helps me offset the costs of maintaining a travel blog…     ​
