Get the app
The app narrates on its own as you walk — no tapping.
This map is Tella's explore mode. Pan anywhere, tap a place, and hear its story: written once from public map and encyclopaedia data, in your language, read aloud by your browser.
The Android app is the real thing: it follows you on foot or behind the wheel and narrates what you pass, place after place, with the screen off.
Every place has one story, written the first time anyone asks for it and kept for everyone after. A place nobody has asked about yet is written while you wait — you will see "writing" in the corner — and the next visitor, on the website or on a walk, hears the same story instantly.
No account, no cookies, no analytics. The point you look at is sent to our server to find nearby places; the search box asks Photon; map tiles come from OpenStreetMap; speech never leaves your browser. A daily free budget is kept against a one-way hash of your address that changes every day. Full policy: privacy.sparkfall.app/tella.
