Ever had that
"wait... that's amazing"
moment?

Naruho turns everyday exploring into a stream of those little "aha!" discoveries. Point at a fountain, a building, a sculpture. Get the fascinating facts in seconds.

How it works

Three steps to those "aha!" moments.

Walk anywhere

Open Naruho wherever you are. A new city, your hometown, or somewhere in between.

Naruho detects what's nearby

Our AI identifies landmarks, buildings, and hidden gems around you automatically.

Get the aha in seconds

Get the fascinating facts, not the boring plaques. Audio or text, your choice.

Your first 30 seconds with Naruho.

Open the app, tell it what catches your eye, and you're ready to walk. No accounts, no tutorials, no "watch this 2-minute intro video". Just curiosity and a map.

  • Hear a real story for a real place, before you've even left the welcome screen.
  • Tap the categories that match your taste. Naruho filters the noise out from day one.
  • Allow location once. Walk anywhere. Discover whatever's within forty metres.

Walk anywhere. Stories find you.

Naruho's new ambient walking mode plays soft music in your ears and slips a thirty-second story in when you pass somewhere worth one. No tour to follow. No route to tick off. Just walk.

  • Direction-aware cues

    A short voice cue tells you where to look ("on your left") so you spot the place before the story starts.

  • Music in between

    Soft lo-fi keeps you company between stories. At least a minute of music between any two so the walk stays a walk, not a podcast.

  • Ask the guide (Pro)

    Heard something that caught your ear? Tap Ask, speak a question, and Naruho replies with a fresh thirty-second story. Your voice never leaves your phone.

  • Phone in your pocket

    Pause, resume or stop right from the lock screen. Distance walked and stories heard track too, no need to unlock.

Free for 30 minutes every day. Unlimited on Pro. Currently in BETA, your feedback shapes what comes next.

Don't see a pin? Snap it.

Point your camera at any building, monument or sculpture and Naruho identifies it and tells you the story behind it. For when the map runs out of pins, but you don't run out of curiosity.

Point. Tap. That's it.

When it knows, it knows.

And when it's not sure, it says so.

Confident when it's confident

Famous landmarks land instantly with the iconic story. Naruho doesn't hedge when it doesn't have to.

Honest when it isn't

Not 100% sure? Naruho tells you, surfaces alternative guesses, and lets you confirm before reading you the wrong story.

Or just type what you see

If a snap doesn't quite catch it, type the place yourself. Naruho finds the story from there.

Discover what's around you

Real artefacts, mapped at street level. The Sagrada Família, hidden chapels, a forgotten arch you walked past.

Plans that fit your mood

Aha from second one

Open the app, get the most interesting thing about where you are. Before you've even tapped a pin.

Not a tour. Not a route.

Traditional tour apps march you from Point A to Point B, reading scripts someone wrote years ago. Naruho is different. It's an ambient discovery layer that works wherever you are, surfacing the kind of facts you'll actually care about.

Ambient walking mode (BETA)

Soft music in your ears as you walk. A voice cue points to what's coming up, then a thirty-second story plays. Lock-screen controls and distance tracking included. Free for 30 minutes a day, unlimited on Pro.

Ask the guide (Pro)

Tap Ask during an ambient session and speak a question about the place you just heard about. Your voice is transcribed on-device and never leaves your phone. A fresh thirty-second story comes back.

Proximity story nudges

Walk near somewhere notable and Naruho can tap you on the shoulder with a notification: "There's a story here." Local-only, capped per day, off until you opt in.

Snap any building, monument, sculpture

Point your camera at it. Naruho identifies it and tells you the story, even when the map has no pin to tap.

Stories, not Wikipedia walls

Three to five sentences, one surprising angle, a story arc. The kind of fact you'll repeat at dinner.

AI plans for what you actually want

"Hidden chapels in the old town." "Top espresso bars locals use." Type your idea, Naruho plots the route.

Studio-quality voice on Pro

Premium narration that sounds like a real guide, not a robot. Cached on your phone for offline replay.

Tuned to what catches your eye

Sights, food, history, art, nature. Tell Naruho your interests and discoveries filter to match.
