Your story no longer stops when your GPS speaks. Told used to give up on a story when a turn-by-turn direction interrupted it — a three-second "turn right ahead" could end a two-minute story mid-sentence and skip to the next one. Told now holds its place through the interruption and picks the same story back up where it left off. A real phone call still pauses things properly. Also fixed: the progress bar no longer keeps creeping while a story is already playing, so the app stops looking busy when it isn't.

About
Told turns your drive into a story. As you travel, Told notices where you are and narrates short, true stories about the places around you — the history, the landmarks, the nature, the food, and the local lore that most maps never mention. No searching, no tapping, no screens to read. Just start driving and listen. Told hands the audio back to your music or radio between stories, works over Bluetooth and CarPlay, and keeps the stories coming while your phone is locked. Every story is grounded in real, factual sources — Wikipedia, the National Weather Service, OpenStreetMap, and the Historical Marker Database — so what you hear about a place actually happened there. There is no account and no login. Told works anonymously. — SUBSCRIPTION — Told is free to try with 7 stories. For unlimited stories, upgrade to Told Pro: • Monthly — $6.99 per month • Annual — $49.99 per year (best value) • New subscribers get a 7-day free trial. Told Pro is an auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your Apple Account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
