I'll start by saying this is absolutely worth the purchase to explore the Boston freedom trail solo or with a partner (using one headphone each was great for us). However, make sure you have plenty of battery or a backup option. My iPhone 15 Pro Max lost over 60% of its charge after completing the full trail. Also, the app will skip to the next stop recording if you wander too far in some places. Still a great resource and we enjoyed the stories and narration for the full trail instead of the condensed version offered in guided tours. Also, note that the app does NOT download the full guide with the app itself. Download the audio guide within the app before your start if you want to save 60MB of mobile data.

The audio guide was really good - including commentary from a professor of Boston’s history and the late Senator Ted Kennedy. It took a second to learn how to go back and forth between the map and the audio guide, but everything worked great.

My wife and I were visiting Boston for the first time together and wanted to walk the Freedom Trail. Based on what we were looking for, we decided self-guided, preferable audio tour, would be best. We arrived at stop one, the Visitors Center in Boston Commons. When we realized a self-guided tour map was $15, we decided right away to try the app. We shared a pair of AirPods and listened to narration at each stop. The app uses GPS to automatically start the next audio track while walking through the trail. Although I’ll probably never use the app again, the $10 was easily worth it and I’d buy again. Especially to support the official app.
