This app is the 10th of the iSwitzerland Collection. This series of apps is made in Switzerland, a country where we speak different languages. As we live in the western part of the country, our main language is French. Thats why, in this app as in the others, youll find many texts in French only, with abstracts in English!
If you dont speak French, it will not be a problem: our apps rely heavily on sightseeing and feature many breathtaking full-screen photos. Navigation, titles, and abstracts are all in English, you wont ever be lost.
Most of our apps are universal (authored for both iPhone and iPad). If you own both iDevices, you should definitely install our apps on your iPad too, as youll get some surprises... Last (but not least), many screens of our apps dont require a connection: most full-screen photos and slideshows, e.g., are embedded so as to load very quickly.
IN THIS APP
CRAZY: three very unusual events... Sometimes, Switzerland goes crazy: Paléo, a yearly open-air festival in Nyon (between Geneva and Lausanne), an amazing maelstrom of sounds and colors. The town of Bad Ragaz (East of Switzerland), transformed into a work of art every three years. And Tracto-Mania, in the Jura mountain range, where farmers meet every year to show their most beautiful vintage tractors.
APPS: introducing the other apps of the collection... Seven around Switzerland, two around Greece. All free and full of beautiful photos and useful informations to prepare your visit of these beautiful countries.
FOCUS: around the Matterhorn, iconic emblem of Switzerland standing on the Italian border... Thus not just about Zermatt, as there are many beautiful places to discover all around.
TOOLS: two location tools for you... One to turn off any location report if you wish, one to share your location with your friends or relatives. Very useful too if you turned off data roaming, as you can send your location by SMS instead of e-mail.
We wish you a great journey to the beautiful worlds of iSwitzerland!
