About TouringEngine APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Summary:TouringEngine is a location-aware mobile application using geofences (GPS based) and low-energy beacons (BlueTooth based) for location triggers. Approaching user-defined destinations composed into a "tour", TouringEngine plays full-quality media content (audio, video and synthesized speech) from programmable URL locations. Tours can have an unlimited number of destinations, user composes a tour via the TouringEngine web application tools at www.android.appsird.com, an easy-to-use map-based composition canvas and management platform. Registering an account on the TouringEngine homepage is free and allows downloading of server-designed tours to mobile devices. Detailed documentation about the application's settings and operation can be accessed on the website via a web browser.
In addition to geofence and beacon functionality, TouringEngine also can, concurrently or by itself, act as a location tracking and logging tool. Logging can be started, suspended and restarted as many times as needed and finally be closed. After closure a track file contains latitude, longitude and time stamp information at a programmable sampling resolution. Elevation service can be invoked to assign true elevation data to each destination and to convert the track into a regular tour, which can then be viewed in map just as any of the downloaded geofence tours, annotated with speed, distance and topographical data that can be graphically displayed and shared with others. Optionally, a tracked tour can be uploaded to server database and/or deleted on mobile device.
More Detail:
A geofence is a circular perimeter of programmable radius around a point of interest which, upon being entered or exited, can trigger user defined actions. On entering a destination perimeter while driving or walking between points of interest, TouringEngine plays audio or video media, reads synthesized speech, or displays an URL in your phone browser. On exiting a geofence, media content optionally plays out or terminates and Google map navigation will automatically take over and guide the user to next destination, according to a preset sequential order of the current tour's destinations. On entering next destination's perimeter, TouringEngine takes over and plays media content as programmed for this destination. Geofence tours are ideal for larger targets, perimeters of 10 m and upwards, lending themselves for example as "electronic" tourism or real-estate "tour guides" playing instructional material whenever one of the tour targets is being approached within its perimeter.
Bluetooth beacons allow alerting an application on a device equipped with an appropriate receiver to receive notifications when in close proximity of such a beacon. Each beacon is tagged with a unique ID and permits the application to display user materials of interest about the triggering beacon's represented product or location. Beacon tours lend themselves for use with high-resolution spatial targets (a few meters), for example as a museum audio-visual tour guide where you'd hear an audio explanation or see an instructional video while standing in front of a piece of art, or as a commercial promotion tool where an electronic coupon could be flashed saying "Corn Flakes on sale" when passing in front of a store shelf equipped with a beacon in the cereal aisle.
Once a mobile device is logged into a user's personal server account, local sample tours can be generated and downloaded on demand from mobile device, while personal tours are composed on the website within its map canvas and browser. Use of a mouse and a better user interface simplify accurate destination marker placement, movement or deletion through clicks/drags on map, provides for easy tour destination sequence ordering and destination media play annotation. All tour destinations end up being tagged with address, latitude, longitude, altitude, perimeter radius and the URL of the media to play on entering its perimeter.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
