Features aboutmyjourney

Have you ever wondered what the building is that you see from the train window, or wanted to know something about the places you are passing through?
Do you need something to entertain and educate your children while they travel?
The AboutMyJourney app is designed just for that.
You simply select your train route from those available and enter a few details about where you are sitting.
You will need a wi-fi or mobile connection to download the data when you start, but the app then tracks your location using GPS, and you just wait for it to pop up and invite you to read about the place you are passing.
Optionally, there may also be a simple quiz, with a multiple choice question for each place, to keep you entertained; the app tracks the answers for up to three players and allows you to see your score at the end.The app is free, there is no advertising, and it does not gather any information about you.
Unlike many apps, you control when to start and stop it, so it is not running all the time in background and taking up valuable memory when you are not using it.
All we ask is that if you enjoy using it, you consider a donation to one of the charities we support.
We are continually working on new journeys, and we welcome suggestions for places or complete routes.
Just go to our website, aboutmyjourney.com, where you can e-mail us using a contact form, and where you can also find the same information about the places you have travelled through.
