App Description

What is the name of the mountain you can see in the distance? What are the lakes you see in front of you? Point there with In View and you'll see on the screen what they are called.

Also try our new free app "Wiki GO".

* Offline Augmented Reality all over the world *
See what's near you where you travel all over the world: Mountains, Lakes, Places, Buildings, etc. You don't even have to leave home: You can manually set your location to a place anywhere in the world to pretend you are there. Decide if you want to see places nearby, or famous cities around the world.

Works everywhere: By the sea, in the mountains, in the city. Without the internet, without coverage.

Turn the phone sideways to view on the camera screen the places that are nearby. Take a picture or record a video of what you see and share on social media, directly from the App!

You can also add your own places!

In View is also an altimeter, speedometer and also estimates the distance you've traveled. Choose between metric (km, meter) or imperial (miles, feet) units.

All data is built into the App, so you don't need internet. You only need internet when you use the map or share a picture or video on social media.

Select between the following map types: Standard, Satellite and Hybrid.

In View relies on the compass and GPS of your device. Best results are achieved if you are outside (with Wi-Fi and cellular data switched off). Note that using a protective cover on your phone might interfere with the compass.

One way to calibrate the compass is to move the phone in an 8-number manner 3 times: Once when the phone is in landscape, once in portrait and once facing up. Also stay away from magnetic sources that might influence the compass.
