A new smartphone and tablet app guides visitors to Basel, Switzerland on a stroll through the city’s Jewish history, from the middle ages to the present.
Called “Bâleph“, the new app will be officially launched on August 26, in both Android and IOS platforms, and in English and German — it will be available free for the first 30 days.
The app structures a 13-stop, multimedia walking tour that includes a variety of sites documenting the 800-year history of Jews in Basel. Featuring text, sound, and images; an Interactive timeline, and a city map with GPS function, it contains 65 minutes of audio material covering a tour lasting 1 ½ to 2 hours.

Looks like the app was removed from regular app stores, but you can get the audio guide here — https://izi.travel/en/942d-baleph-a-stroll-through-basel-s-jewish-history/en#a3162d29-3292-48d9-a836-3170f009b663
let me try to look for the words :somewhere I appreciate it,but at the same time I feel ill at ease.something to do with touristic attractions,entertainment like sometimes the Anne Frank House Amsterdam used for and somewhere the fact my People knows about and the others ought to know about!?
