TravelDroyd
TravelDroyd is an offline travel guide application designed and developed for Android devices. You can download our Android TravelDroyd application either from the Android Market or AndroidPIT free of charge:
TravelDroyd is bundled with a free Berlin travel book which is downloaded when first started. Other travel guides are available for a small fee.

TravelBooks
 |
With TravelDroyd we offer a large selection of multi-lingual travel guides ("Travel Books") covering many cities and metropolitan areas worldwide.
Berlin, the capitol of Germany, and Stuttgart, the beautiful city where our company is located, is already included free of charge.
You can download and install many additional Travel Books from the Android Market or SlideME.

Multi-Linguality
 |
Our internationalized books include street maps and point of interests for many regions in 20 different languages. Each travel guide includes all Wikipedia articles (except pictures and images) for the corresponding area.
We compile and distribute original Wikipedia content in 20 different languages and automatically install the language matching your phone's language settings. For example, if your phone is set to "German" you end up downloading a TraveDroyd book in German, which means the German (de) Wikipedia book. However, you can switch to another Wikipedia language whenever you want.

Street Maps
 |
Every TravelDroyd Book includes a detailed street map for the downloaded metropolitan area or region. Our maps are based on OpenStreetMap content and updated regularly.
You can pan the map in any direction and continiously zoom in or out. TravelDroyd supports pinch zoom ("multi-touch") for Android platforms 2.x and higher. Map controls allow you to rotate your maps and align the view back to north orientation.
A "long-click" on the map places a pin which labels the underlying street, place, POI, or other objects.

Search
 |
Select "Find" from the main menu to search for streets, places, point of interest, and even Wikipedia articles. Enter your search text in the upper text field and you will see matching results while typing.
Search for categorized POI (point of interests) in your neighborhood and view the full Wikipedia article offline on your phone.

Routing
 |
Calculate routes between two arbitrary points and get turn-by-turn directions for both pedestrians and driving a car. A navigation feature (guidance) will be added soon.
Or, get directions from your current location (GPS) to the nearest restaurant, hotel, landmark, and many more interesting places.

Outdoor Maps
 |
 We have just integrated topographic contour lines to our TravelDroyd map theme "Hiking". This terrain view is great for outdoor activities and destinations. Our outdoor map skin includes mountain peaks which are labeled and marked with a black triangle.
When opening an already installed travel book the update feature will prompt you to download fresh data.
