Arch10 app
Arch10 is a free bilingual app that works as a self-guided tour, sharing information about
Winnipeg's built environment. The app synchronizes with Winnipeg Transit route #10,
which passes by some of Winnipeg's most significant buildings. The tour covers three
major neighbourhoods in Winnipeg: Wolseley, downtown, and Saint-Boniface. When
near selected places of interest, narrators alert users and describes the buildings.
Original music created specifically for these urban landscapes accompanies the user
throughout the ride. While the app is tailored for use on the bus, it is also a handy
resource that can be used at any time.
