Beschreibung

This tour covers The Battle of Arnhem (A Bridge Too Far) the largest Airborne Campaign of all time. You can find out why it failed and hear stories of the hero’s as well as understanding why the mistakes that were made arguably prolonged World War II by 9 months…
- Pocket Tours brings history to life by using the full suite of functionality available on the Apple mobile platform. For over a year visitors have used this app to help them interpret history’s most significant battles.
- Users can view photographs, hear original sound clips and see film footage to further bring the scene to life.
- The interactive map has 4 layers to ensure everything is easily accessible and not over crowded.
- Learn all about the battle of Arnhem from start to finish from whilst hearing from world-renowned historians about exactly what happened, who was involved and how history was shaped.
This app allows users to visit historical sites from the comfort of their armchair, taking a step back in history through the use of amazing images, video clips and audio scripts.
It is also possible for those that have the opportunity to visit the place and be guided around whilst listening to the commentary and seeing where historic events took place through the live camera. This tour has a lot of detail. If lucky enough to visit the site it will take around 2 days to visit all of the stands/points of interest.
Pocket Tours is the world’s first battlefield tour app which is able to use all of the pioneering capability of the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch.
“Imagine walking over the ground that shaped history and having an expert explain the events as they unfolded. The GPS feature guides users from point to point, utilising the knowledge of local historians to go to the best vantage points – making a tour of the battlefields accessible to anyone, anywhere at any time.
Once downloaded, users don’t need internet access to use the app. They can just plug in their headphones and immerse themselves in the history. If you can’t get to the battlefield that’s fine – the app is still a fantastic story in its own right.”
FEATURES
NO INTERNET/3G CONNECTION REQUIRED - Designed for offline use so you don't need to pay for high overseas data charges.
EXPERIENCED GUIDE – Our guides are experts. They bring to life what took place and describe what it was like on the ground when it was happening. It is much easier to understand how things happened when you see where they took place
UP - TO - DATE – Obviously the historic tours don’t change as time passes. We are however always updating things and looking for more information to make the tours more interesting.
AUGMENTED REALITY –Turn the phone on its side and look at the screen. The map will disappear and if you are close enough to the point on the map it will appear on the screen with the camera operating the backdrop. It is then possible to tap the stand and to see the information regarding this point. All of the points are available with the download. No further purchase is necessary
NOTE:
1. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
2. The GPS signal is very weak in areas with overhead cover.
3. The GPS signal is often weak inside a car.
4. Take a real map to make sure you know where you are. Don’t rely on the GPS alone.
5. Download a compass to help you to orientate yourself

Well done and thanks! To an infantryman who appreciates ground this is great to get round the battlefield, with the augmented reality adding a huge plus. The fact that you can see real photos and hear audioand watch video brings the battlefield to 'life' in a way that nothing else can - I have walked many a battlefield and listened to great story tellers and watched films and computer graphics in the visitor centre but this is so much better its right there with you- on the ground with all these extras anytime you want. Cheaper than the visitor centre headphone with all this extras - fantastic value. More please!!

This is a great app! I downloaded it before I went to the Netherlands and could access all the background info on the battle. Once it Arnhem the app guided me easily from spot to spot around the town and the countryside. At each location there is a voice file describing the action during the battle. There are also photos, some of them linked to the exact spots on the ground and at some stops there are video and sound files that help bring the battle alive. The augmented reality is what makes this app great. Once I had listened to the voice file I could look through my phone held up in front of me and it would pinpoint the sites from the description on the ground in front of me. Excellent!! Much better than just reading a book on the battle (which I had also done before going). The app really puts you on the spot with the sights and sounds. I look forward to more.
