Soundscape provides an ambient description of your surroundings in aid of exploration and way-finding. Using spatial audio, Soundscape will call out points of interest, parks, roads, and intersections from the direction they physically are in your immediate environment as you walk. For example, if you pass a shop on your right, you will hear the name of the shop sounding from your right. As you approach an intersection, you will hear each road name sounding from the direction it goes in, beginning to your left, ahead and to the right.

Instead of turn-by-turn directions as often provided by other map applications, Soundscape will play an audible beacon in the direction of your destination, empowering you to make your way there on your terms using your increased awareness of your surroundings and the location of your destination. Soundscape is designed to run in the background, enabling you to use a turn-by-turn directions app, all the while continuing to provide environmental awareness as you make your way to your destination.

Soundscape can use any of the voices you have downloaded in the iOS Settings app except for the Siri voices which are not available to Soundscape. We recommend choosing one of the higher quality "Enhanced" voices, but you will need to download it first. You can download voices in the iOS Settings app by going to Accessibility > Read & Speak > Voices and tapping on a voice. (In IiOS Versions before 26, "Read & Speak" is called "Spoken Content".) Within the Soundscape App, you can select the voice you want to use by tapping "Settings" on the main menu and then from "General Settings" selecting "Voice".
