Over There-> vs Seeing Assistant AlarmGPS Usage & Stats
Over There is a travel app like no other. Using Augmented Reality you can easily find your destination!
Even better is that it works without an internet connection. All the needed data is hard coded.
When you're traveling in a foreign country you don't need to buy a sim or a new phone. Over There works everywhere!
Sights and historical monuments don't change. So why would you need an active connection to find them or their information? I already hard coded the location for the top sights in the cities.
The location and brief info is shown on the map view. The More Info page not only has expanded information, but also open hours, a place to write your own notes which will show there, a link to their website and a Photo Detail to examine the image more closely.
I've also hard coded Food, Cafes and Bars that I liked on the way to the city's sights.
Why pay $100 dollars for a meal when a good less expensive one can be found just next door?
I chose good ones that are on the route and near where the sights are so you can easily grab some food or a bit of caffeine on the way.
If you don't like the ones that are chosen you can always add more in the Custom tab. Just long press and it will add it to the map until you delete it. If you happen to have a connection you can use the search feature to add them as well. Add and delete as many as you like. There's no limit.
You can view the locations in the Map or in a List. If you choose a location you can get directions to it, either walking or driving.
You can mark any location as a Priority, and it will have a brighter cyan color to be easier to find, or mark it as Visited and it will become translucent on the map and in AR.
Choose a category and Augmented Reality will show you it's annotations in real time in the camera overlay.
Narrow it down by choosing a different category and it will only show those instead.
Or choose to show only one to easily identify it in the camera AR view.
