Since the dawn of time, stories have been the way in which values and knowledge are passed from one generation to the next — each adding their wisdom and experience along the way. It’s time to connect with the sum of our experience, to enrich our lives with the stories of today, and to inspire the great storytellers yet to come.

  • Disappointed

    I was really excited to use this app for our road trips to find out more information about the areas where we travelled. Unfortunately, we found the stories to be no more than information you get from roadside signs. We would love for more little known history facts and origin stories to be included. We also found the stories in our own area contained many mispronunciations it was distracting.

  • Good Content Clunky Interface

    The app content with the brief history and culture stories is interesting. The interface, however, especially on Car Play is pretty poor. I have little idea what is going on th the background, however the map is unavailable in CarPlay and it loads stories, I assume based on distance, that sometimes load, sometimes start over and sometimes just fail or go away all while messing up other audio apps. Would be way better to have a map about what stories are ahead, what you just passed and what else is nearby.

  • Almost perfect

    Love hearing the history of areas & especially some of the colorful residents! I wish each story would start with stating the title. Often I have no idea the location until the middle or end of the story. Also, I wish it was easier to rewind - I’m often distracted and want to go back and listen again but if it’s too close to the end, I can’t without getting into my phone. I travel solo so most often that’s not possible.

  • Bad

    I’m very disappointed with Kevin Costner for recommending this app. I wonder how much money he receives.

  • Love the stories, but it freezes constantly

    Idea - 5 stars Support - 0 stars On a 5200 mile road trip in the US and dealing with repeated freezing of the app. Thought *maybe* it was the internet but all other apps have performed flawlessly…no support from Autio.

  • What a Fun addition to your vacation!

  • Interference

    By markwilson (one of several)
    Notifications stopping the music I’m listening to late in evening/early in morning. Stop it. Don’t let your app interfere in what I’m doing when a notification rings in.

  • Bad pronunciations

    By madtowngal
    Get some local people to help you with correct pronunciations. Madison wi. The few I listened to had numerous errors. Hope it’s better once I get on the road. Just feel like I can’t trust the app.

  • Love this app.

    It’s so informative and definitely worth listening to while traveling! We recommend it to all our friends!

  • Really interesting stories

    Well designed app with really interesting stories. It’s a freemium subscription model, though, which may not be obvious to all. Decent value to me, though.
