Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm the creator of Nadoloni, a self-guided audio walking app, and I'm excited to share it here. The idea started with something that kept happening whenever I planned a trip. I'd spend hours reading about a city, saving interesting places, and trying to connect dozens of pins into a walkable route. By the time I was done, I'd know quite a lot about the city, but still have no idea how to actually explore it. I enjoy researching places. I just wanted to spend less time organizing everything and more time experiencing the city itself. But there was another thing that bothered me about traditional guided tours. You can spend two hours listening to a guide explain when buildings were constructed, who commissioned them, which architectural styles they represent, and what happened there over the centuries. It's a lot of information. And by the end, you might remember almost none of it. Yet sometimes a guide mentions one small, unexpected detail, and suddenly you're paying attention. It's the part you remember days later. The story you end up telling a friend when you get home. That's the kind of experience I wanted Nadoloni to create. Instead of trying to tell you everything about a place, I look for the stories worth remembering. The strange decisions, human conflicts, surprising connections, and little details that make you look at an ordinary building differently. I spend a lot of time researching and writing each story, trying to find not just what happened, but what makes it interesting enough to stay with you. Nadoloni brings these stories together with ready-made walking routes and interactive maps, so you can discover them in the places where they happened. You don't need to join a group, follow a fixed schedule, or spend the night before your trip organizing dozens of map pins. Just pick a route, start walking, and listen whenever you're ready. I started with Lisbon, with two routes: one through the historic city centre and another through Belém, exploring Portugal's Age of Discoveries. The app is available on iPhone, and the first five stories of each route are free. I'd love to know: What's one unusual story or small detail you learned while traveling that you still remember today? Thanks for checking out Nadoloni! 🧡
