Description

Are you a road-tripper? Ever curious about the deeper story behind that bronze historical marker you passed on the highway? HearHere is an audio entertainment app that shares stories about the people, places, and histories of the land you are traveling through. A hands-free experience that delights, informs, and entertains by fostering a deeper connection with the world outside your car window. *** “Kevin Costner's new travel app will narrate your next American road trip.” - Lonely Planet *** “For families embarking on the great American road trip this summer, HearHere provides short, interesting audio tidbits to coincide with and expand your journey.” - Travel & Leisure *** “Learn about your surroundings, one mile at a time.” - Urban Daddy HOW IT WORKS As you travel, HearHere serves up stories based on your geographic location and interests. The audio vignettes, generally 2-3 minutes in length, combine to tell the history around you, painting a multi-dimensional picture you’re unlikely to get from a history book or visitor's guide. HearHere answers the questions we all ask as the odometer turns: “I wonder how this town came to be?” “Who was that mountain peak named after?” “Who were the first people to live in this area?” FEATURES DISCOVER THE STORIES HIDDEN ALONG THE ROADS OF AMERICA - Location-awareness provides Autoplay of nearby content for a hands-free experience LISTEN TO THE LANDSCAPE - Tailored content based on the traveler’s interests with themes including Colorful Characters, Culture, History, Local Insights, Music, Natural Wonders, Special Places of Interest and Sports WHAT IF THESE ROADS COULD TALK? - Professional narration featuring Kevin Costner, Phil Jackson, and more to help preserve the tradition of oral storytelling ON AND OFF THE ROAD - Offline listening available for remote areas (or saving your data plan) GIVE IT A LISTEN DURING YOUR NEXT ROAD TRIP - Stream five stories for free each month STORY AVAILABILITY California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming Coast-to-coast stories throughout the US by Summer 2021

    No stories to read. Can’t hear the audio, I’m deaf.
  • Love HearHere for road trips and virtual trip planning!

    Listening to the stories while taking road trips was a lot of fun. I also use the app to inspire where I want to go adventure next. I have the yearly subscription which I think is a great value and I look forward traveling with HearHere on all my trips to come!
  • Great Way to Learn Local History

    I originally signed up wanting to listen on my trip from Salt Lake City to Houston this last September. I really didn’t want to take the chance of being exposed to COVID-19 on a three hour flight but I then decided that driving that far would tax me at my age of 70 years. So, to be honest with you, today was the first day of listening. My first story was about the University of Utah where I live across the street from. I listened next to Pleasant Grove where I was raised. And then Fortuna, California where I lived for twenty years and raised my two sons. I can’t wait to continue listening and learning. It’s been fun and I have to say very informative. You’ve done a wonderful job of making history a treat for me.
  • Excellent App for all ages !

    Thank you for this absolutely wonderful app. As a youngster I was fortunate enough to have traveled to some of the places you have and will I am sure speak about. I love the great stories and history you provide. The narrators are just perfect and have great voices which add to the experience. I am lovin every minute of it and look forward to many more travels. I have told many friends about your app. Keep up the great work and keep em comin. California born and Florida raised 😊

    This app brings to life the cities and landmarks we live in and pass through on our way to destinations. It brought a sense of appreciation for the forgotten and under appreciated sites throughout our stomping grounds.

    This app is amazing. I drive a sprinter RV and have always wanted an app that would know where I am and tell me interesting stories about the places I am driving through. It is easy to use, narration is clear, stories are engaging and makes any road trip more fun.

    Once you install the application and create an account, you’ll notice upon opening the map that “flyover country” has been almost entirely omitted. Granted this is a relatively young application, but the potential is very great for this to become something much more. I can see the vision. I am curious as to how to go about including local landmarks through this application. I would be interested in assisting in the area in which I live.
