Paris
From the iron lace of the Eiffel Tower to the hidden covered passages of the Right Bank.
Look up from your phone.
Wanderlight is a narrated walking guide for curious travellers — the story of the thing you're standing in front of, in your ears instead of on a screen.
Coming soon to Google PlayBuilt for actually being there
Guides are made for the street, not the sofa — which mostly means staying out of your way.
Works without signal
Download a city over wi-fi before you leave. Every guide plays in full on aeroplane mode, in a basement, or on foreign roaming you'd rather not pay for.
Keeps playing, screen off
Put the phone in your pocket and keep walking. Play, pause and skip from the lock screen or your headphones.
Notices what's near you
An optional list of landmarks within about a kilometre, so you find the things you didn't know to look for. Decline the permission and everything else still works.
No account, ever
No sign-up, no email, no password to forget. Open the app and press play.
Where you can wander
A small catalogue, deliberately — every stop is written and narrated rather than scraped. More cities are on the way.
1 stop
Rome
Stand where the Roman crowd stood, at an arena built from the spoils of Jerusalem. The first of many.
Quietly private
Not a policy written to be tolerated — a description of an app that genuinely doesn't watch you.
There is no analytics SDK, no advertising SDK, and no crash-reporting SDK in Wanderlight. There is no account, so there is nothing to attach data to.
If you allow location access, your coordinates are compared against the landmark list on your device and never transmitted — not to us, not to anyone.
