Terra Cognita turns any place into a personalized audio journey. Tell it where you're headed — or somewhere you've already been — and its AI researches the location's history, culture, food, and hidden stories, then produces a custom narrated podcast made just for you. You decide what matters. On an interactive dial, weight the topics you care about — new restaurants and bars, local government, culture and events, the outdoors, and more — and Terra Cognita tailors the episode to your interests. Every exploration comes with the Terraform Times: an annotated PDF companion with sources and links so you can go deeper.

• Shared explorations now open with the full script, its sources, and the annotated PDF — not just the player. • Playback speed control, background playback, and lock screen controls. • Subscriptions now run through in-app purchase, with Restore and Manage. • Add private notes to any exploration to shape the next one. • Fixed a share link that opened and then immediately closed when the app was launched from cold. • Onboarding and sign-in polish.
