Two ways to explore
Tap any spot on the map — a landmark, a café, a hidden alley — and instantly hear AI-generated narration crafted just for that place.
Put your headphones on, pocket your phone, and walk. Tour Mode automatically finds and narrates interesting places as you pass them — no tapping, no screen time.
Features
Every description is AI-generated on the spot — accurate, engaging, and unique to where you are. Nothing pre-recorded, nothing canned. Tokyo backstreets sound nothing like Kyoto temples.
Download cities before you travel. Explore without internet — perfect for travel abroad or areas with spotty connections.
Choose from lightweight system voices or high-quality on-device AI voices. Your ears, your choice.
Narrations and interface available in English, 中文, 한국어, Español, Português, and Français. Switch anytime in settings.
Prefer text? Flip to Reading Mode and browse narrations without audio. Enable Quiet Mode to pause auto-play while still exploring the map.
No cluttered menus. No forced sign-ups. Open, tap, explore. CityYoYo stays out of your way so you can stay in the moment.
