For example, a SnapShot about a particular
place may include details on closest transport
links, nearby cash machines and banks, places to
eat, nearby attractions and shopping, etc. This
information can be viewed with the Notes feature
on your iPod and can be useful if you are about
to travel to that area - maybe on vacation or
holiday.
There are two types of Pod SnapShot:
-
SnapShots that you download for free.
-
SnapShots that you pay for.
SnapShots that you download for free.
Free SnapShots can be found in our directory.
You don't need to register or sign in to get
these - just
browse the directory, download and go!
Typically, SnapShots in the directory are
guides for popular attractions, places to visit,
shops, hotels & places to stay, clubs, pubs &
bars, etc. They contain information such
as opening & closing times, entry costs, contact
information, etc. useful stuff if you're
planning a trip.
Anyone can create a Pod SnapShot and submit
it to our directory where it can then be found
by others. If you'd like to find out more about

SnapShots that you pay for.
SnapShots that you pay for are created
especially for you! They are based on a
combination of your profile as well as a
specific area - for example a postcode or ZIP
code.
A free sample is
available here.
When you register with us, you set up a
profile which includes stuff about you. Your
likes, dislikes, etc. We then use your profile
to build a SnapShot tailored to you. So if your
profile says that you like visiting pubs and
clubs, eating pizza and shopping non-stop, your
SnapShot for a specific area will contain
details about the nearest pubs, clubs, pizza
restaurants and shopping facilities - together
with other details about that area such as
transport links.
If your profile says that you like visiting
museums and the arts, then your SnapShot will
contain this information too!
To ensure that they're always up to date,
these SnapShots are created automatically by
expodition and arrive in your inbox seconds
after you order.
Once your SnapShot arrives in your email,
download it to your iPod to view it. Then, when
you're out and about, you can view details and
information about your surroundings via your
SnapShot.
